To my knowledge, this is the first correct decision ever issued by the 9th circuit court.
We are becoming a modern day Medieval Europe with their protective Guilds designed to shield the well connected and keep out the riff-raff.
It is preposterous to claim that the First Amendment applies only to “journalists.” The amendment protects freedom of THE PRESS, and SPEECH. Even if one were to claim that “the press” means “journalists” (which it does not) there’s that freedom of SPEECH.
Awesome. I have been arguing this for some time. For some reason the Fifth Estate thinks the First Amendment exclusively applies to them. It doesn’t.
According to the Left:
Freedom of speech only applies to paychecked journalists, and remember “FOX is not a real news outlet”.
Freedom to be armed only applies to the police and the military.
Freedom of religion only applies to priests and nuns (sometimes).
The freedom to be secure in our persons, communications, and property simply doesn’t exist at all.
