Trolls and Polls

Some things never change, taking a well known and always knocked down methodology and posting it as something of value to stir up comments and send people to worthless destination sites that want hits like prostitutes want customers

Nope

The only cure for bad free speech or hate speech is more free speech. That and defamation lawsuits for false accusations.

You don't have to look very hard to find plenty of people on this forum calling for journalists to be strung up from lampposts.

The Left would love to eliminate elections, free speech and due process.

Its already happening informally. Welcome to the late, great United States.

I agree with the majority in that we need to stop PROTECTING the media with the First Amendment. The media is ABUSING that right and it’s best to just end it and let them be held accountable.

The First Amendment isn't at fault for protecting fake news. It was the Supreme Court that allowed the media to slander people with fake news.

Did they ask these questions?

  1. Do you think the government should arrest someone for what they say?
  2. Do you think the government should arrest someone for what they write?
  3. Do you think the government should arrest someone for how they worship?
  4. Do you think the government should arrest someone for being seen with someone else?
  5. Do you think the government should arrest someone for challenging something the government did?
Let's see the results of that poll.

All they have to do is amend the Constitution.

“The First Amendment isn’t at fault for protecting fake news. It was the Supreme Court that allowed the media to slander people with fake news.”

Yes and no. It’s true that this crap was fueled by that Supreme Court ruling...but where did they get their rationale from?
