1st off: 1A applies to CONGRESS, not states, or people, or colleges, or businesses. They can curtail “speech” if they want. So much of this is moot.

There is NOTHING subjective about our Constitution. The courts need to be DRAINED of America-hating leftists who think otherwise.

This is also why “hate crimes” are a crock of sh!t.

These conservative students need to step up with bigger bullhorns and lawsuits if they want to be heard. Else they will grow up to be timid flinching Republican.

When it comes to citizen vs citizen free speech doesn’t exist as a right you either shout and screen or get marginalized by others.

With all the deserved criticism of Jeff Sessions and his recusal on all matters related to Hillary, it’s worth noting that Jeff Sessions has done well defending free speech on campus.

As usual, conservatives were right. When the concept of “hate speech” was initiated by the Leftists, conservatives said it would be used against anyone who disagreed with the Left. Bingo! The Supreme Court should squash this ridiculous notion that freedom of speech should be attacked in this unconstitutional way.

Thank you for referencing that article reaganaut1. Please note that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

The real problem concerning state disrespect for constitutionally enumerated protections imo, particularly 1st Amendment-protected free speech and religious expression in recent examples, is this.

Although the states have expressly constitutionally given Congress the specific power to strengthen constitutionally enumerated rights where state abridgment of those rights is concerned, the corrupt, post-17th Amendment ratification Congress left over from the lawless Obama Administration has stubbornly chosen to remain silent while some states abridge those rights.

The only remedy for Congress is for patriots to finish the job that they started when they elected Trump president in 2016.

More specifically, it’s entirely up to patriots to clean up Congress by now making sure that there are plenty of Trump-supporting patriot candidates on 2018 primary ballots, and pink-slip career lawmakers by sending patriot candidate lawmakers to DC on election day.

And to make voter efforts in cleaning up Congress, along with Trump’s vision for MAGA, as permanent as possible, patriots also now need to be working with their state lawmakers to support Trump in leading the states to repeal the 16th and 17th Amendments.

But until 17th Amendment is repealed, as evidenced by concerns about the integrity of Alabama's special Senate election, patriot candidates need to win elections by a large enough margin to compensate for possible deep state ballot box fraud and associated MSM scare tactics.
