As a journalist, I'm a big fan of the First Amendment and the principle of free speech. Even so, I don't believe free speech is absolute in every case imaginable or even in most cases -- you can't yell "fire" in a crowded theater. Free speech that undermines or harms society should be limited and subject to sanctions.

Boy this guy is goose stepping little fascist isn’t he.

He is ready to gut the Bill of Rights from groin to gullet.

And it goes without saying that he and his ilk get to decide the parameters of “free” speech, and we already where the lines will be (already in Australia a radio personlity was hauled before some kind of court or commission or some such, probably something like Canada has, and prosecuted or examined for opposing man-made global warming on the air in a debate with a warmist).

Also, Christians (but not Muslims) will be, more than they already are, proscribed from publicly professing their faith.
