“Condone” and “Allow” are two different things. The Constitution does not “condone” anything, but protects, allows and provides much.

“The “fire in a crowded theater” standard is intended to limit government intrusion on free speech, not enable an expansion of it”

Wrong,,, in the Schneck (sp?)case, the precise issue at hand was whether or not it was legal to encourage people to avoid the draft in WWI. The court ruled that speech opposed to the draft in WWI was akin to yelling “fire in a crowded theater”

So that case was precisely used to support an expansion of government into free political speech. And Breyer isn’t an idiot,,,by referencing that case he is telling you that he does not believe in free speech in all political matters. He is a statist.

Under Justice Breyer’s argument, if ANYONE threatens violence over ANY First Amendment display, then there is no longer a protection for that event.

Breyer, why don’t you stick to ice cream!

The Supreme Court ruled that the American flag can be burned, yet a Koran cannot be burned, because it incites people????

Breyer is what you feared, a politically correct judge that changes with the winds. Whatever is in vogue.

I believe a burning Koran is a thing of bueaty, therefore it is art.
