The remedy for speech you don’t like is not to ban the speech — that’s so North Korea — it’s more speech. Only governments can violate 1A rights, but c’mon, man, get with the program and support your position, not try to silence someone else’s.

Ribbit :(

At least until after the election, we are all aboard the Trump Train. We The People have spoken and he is the man who is going to be the nominee and the only one in a position to defeat the Hildabeast. Pieces from sources that don't fully support our candidate only help one party in this upcoming election: the wrong party.

[Note that I say this as a person who does not like Trump and who would never vote for him in a primary, but who recognizes that what must be done must be done in order to achieve the goal of keeping her out of the WH]

This isn't about free speech. This is about being in campaign mode until after the election is done and over with.

So you'd be OK if Jim allowed Stormfront stuff on his web site?

I agree. Gosh, I still have the ability to read the articles I choose and skip the ones I don’t want to see!
