Who gets to say what is like “crying fire in a crowded theater? Who? Anyone w/a grievance who decides to become violent about their particular offense? Who?
Abuse of free speech? But saying the F-word, C-word, putting Jesus into a glass of urine, etc. is not?
Either speech is free (with the attendant consequences - yelling ‘fire’ in a theater when there isn’t one is a tort) or it isn’t. There isn’t any ‘kinda-free’ speech.
Gutsy lady.

And 110% correct on this issue. As opposed to Mr. Bill (”The 1st Amendment? What’s that?”) O’Reilly.who is dead wrong.
Leftists constantly try to take control of the terms of the debate by granting themselves the right to define the meaning words and phrases, including existing words and phrases that already have meaning.
For the most part they get away with it.
Only fascist tools can endorse censorship, especially censorship of unpopular political and religious speech.
Drawing Mohammed is not falsely crying fire, nor is it libel, nor is it a call to violence or a threat to anyone.
However the Muslims that threaten those for holding such an event are not exercising free speech.
MK needs to make the correct distinction.
Too much crosstalk in that article to make much sense out of it. What it all comes down to, is that Muslims want to kill us. No matter what we say, or whether or not we offend them. So this is our country and we have a right to defend free speech. The Muslims can go suck a pig’s teat - and/or leave our nation.
There are a million and one things that are offensive to Muslims warranting them killing someone under the rules of their religion. Eff them. Anybody who threatens to kill another person for what they legally say should be liable to criminal penalties. Muslims are not exempt from American law.

The idiot arguing with her is uneducated and will suffer for his ignorance. If he wins, he’ll be back to slavery.
