Cuomo is another enemy collaborator.

The Chaplinsky situation included immediate physical proximity and “fighting words” laced with slander. The Geller event was constitutionally protected political and religious speech. As satire it also comes in for specific protection.

"Taqqiya? — that is understandable"

That is very important and celebrated in one of the few musical sounds Islamists permit..

We have a Gordian knot here. The only way to cut it is to regain a consciousness of the divine.

Too many lies, and you end up not even with lies, but with nonsense. “This isn’t right. This isn’t even wrong!”

I find most of what Cuomo says offensive and incendiary.

That's why we call him a tnuc here in FL.

How was that for hate speech?

Anyhow maybe a good thing to pray is that the lie mongers will overplay their hand. Too much nonsense too soon, and people will rebel.

Cuomo is just another Islamoservile who is willingly servile to the enemy, Islamism.

Exactly. The Left comes up with the Constitutionally unfounded idea that ‘hate speech’ can be excluded from First Amendment protections, and then, of course, the Left gets to define ‘hate speech’.

It is a scary proposition. If a Democrat wins in 2016, or if a Republican wins and is unable (or unwilling) to get a conservative Sup Court nominee approved, then once Scalia or Kennedy retire then there will be at least a 5 vote majority to strip destroy Free Speech by making exceptions for so called ‘hate speech.’ And leading the way in defining ‘hate speech’ will be far-left, radical, loathsome, despicable groups like the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Thanks for the earworm, old timer. Now, what was the song title of that hit from the 50s, anyway? I can’t remember. Something ending in “ita.”

Hate Speech is protected, it is words that can be considered to cause imminent physical injury action that are not protected. Yelling "Fire!" is protected. Doing it in a crowded theater is not protected. Saying on the phone "I'm going to beat your to a pulp" is protected. When you do it holding a baseball bat, 3 feet away from me, then it is not. Holding an art contest is protected, not only because it is not Hate Speech, it is not Speech at all. It is Freedom of Assembly, if anything.

The Offendotrons have apparently decided that, in their Victimology Culture, our words and our very existence offends them in every way, and causes them imminent physical injury, and so we must be silenced and likely disposed of... imminently.

Like anything built out of human approximations to truth, it is open to abuse.

Canada is already well into this conundrum.

Liberals know how to game the system. If shouting fire in crowded theaters is wrong, then make your theaters out of tinder.

I need to post this idea on facebook. They are really clueless there.

Title? I'd tell you but I can't spell tequila.

Besides alcohol is offensive to Islamists and it'd be hate speech if I told you. Sorry.

Bill Maher is in trouble. He’s probably the biggest Christophobe on tv, IMO.

I think Christians depended too much on cultural support for their beliefs. For a long time that cultural support was there. It’s nice in a way, but it also masks the spiritual picture.

A good challenge might be the only way to get drowsy warriors to dust off their spiritual AK47s, so to speak. The good Lord knows that.

Isn't the Declaration of Independence really just one long hate speech against King George III?
