"I can’t count the number of people who I saw post similar things."

So that makes it okay. Carry on.

On the other hand, I always have the feeling that if I were to “use the n-word”, some guy on the street could beat me half to death, and a court would tell me that I used “fighting words” and deserved my beating.

So ... available for recall to duty by the C-in-C?

To quote a great Pirate joke, “Bring me my ‘brown’ pants!”

Nicholas Savino was sentenced in March to a year in jail after posting on the White House Web site in August 2013, "President Obama the Anti-Christ, As a result of breaking the constitution you will stand down or be shot dead."

Most threats against Obama issued online

"Other sources, who because of the sensitivity of the matter asked to not be identified, said the president still receives more threats than previous presidents, although the number is lower than in the immediate aftermath of his first election."

I wonder...

The Left is a poisonous, rancid soup of no belief in God, no moral values, and rabid adherence to a "Do as thou wilt" ideology that encourages them to use violence in the furtherance of it.

And to top it all off, they are filled with murderous hatred towards anyone who doesn't believe as they do.

What could possibly go wrong?

I thought that threatening the life of the POTUS was a federal crime.

Man spewed death threats about Obama, barricaded himself inside historic site with fire poker: Feds

He is accused of sending threats against Obama and three others via "interstate and foreign commerce email and telephone communications," the indictment says. The other individuals are all from Williston.

Ian Patrick Stewart's trial was reported first as being in October, now pushed to November.

This case has very little to do with free speech. He was tried in Virginia, and more than likely had a jury of Trump haters.

“The First Amendment won out this week in a court case over a man who repeatedly called for President Donald Trump’s assassination and openly fantasized about his violent demise”

So now I guess it’s OK to yell “Fire” in a crowded venue now.

“I can’t count the number of people who I saw post similar things.”

The witness left off: “...including several jurors here today.”

So... it's now okay to yell "Fire!" in a Federal courtroom...free speech and all...

...and it's also now okay to urge violence against judges and jurors...goose, gander and all...

1. Any news about how the jury was selected?

2. Did the judge instruct them that jurors cannot decide legal issues, such as the permissible scope of free speech?

From the article: ...one issue with the charges in Stinson’s case was that it was not clear whom Stinson was soliciting to carry out the crime.

So, as long as I post "Wanted - Dead or Alive" for anyone without naming a specific contractor, I can call for executions and not face charges...

...sounds like this Peter Stinson and the jurors might feel differently if it was their name and face on the wanted posters.

“Juries” are a bigger joke than the Dipstick Court skanks. They all hate the President of the United State because Kings like King Barry Sotero and King Hakeem Skyhook tell them to along with the “media” gas bags.
