Prince Harry Says America’s First Amendment Is ‘Bonkers’

Prince Harry said in a recent podcast interview with Dax Shepard that America’s First Amendment is “bonkers.”

Prince Harry was discussing his new role at a non-profit called the Aspen Institute with Shepard on his podcast, “Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard.” He will serve on the “Commission on Information Disorder” and will conduct studies with 14 other people on a panel to analyze the spread of incorrect information throughout the country, according to The Spectator.

“As I’ve said, the experience of today’s digital world has us inundated with an avalanche of misinformation, affecting our ability as individuals as well as societies to think clearly and truly understand the world we live in,” Prince Harry said about his new job. “It’s my belief that this is a humanitarian issue and as such, it demands a multi-stakeholder response from advocacy voices, members of the media, academic researchers, and both government and civil society leaders.”

When discussing the spread of misinformation, Prince Harry expressed confusion with the First Amendment.

“I’ve got so much I want to say about the First Amendment as I sort of understand it, but it is bonkers. I don’t want to start going down the First Amendment route because that’s a huge subject and one which I don’t understand because I’ve only been here a short time,” Prince Harry said. “But, you can find a loophole in anything. You can capitalize or exploit what’s not said rather than uphold what is said.”

Prince Harry’s comments drew rebukes by many on Twitter.

“What doesn’t he understand? He is a well educated person, and it is pretty plainly written.”

He doesn’t understand why we would allow the peasants to criticize and say mean things about the aristocracy.

Thanks for the song link.

Clears that up. Except they admitted many years later it included an implied drug reference after all. A shock.

They looked younger in 1966 than for the 2015 album The Sweet Pretty Things Are In Bed Now Of Course. Great title. Glad I haven’t changed my looks since then.

The First Amendment was first for a reason. We view free speech as our most important and fundamental right. And we saw and still see how the absence of this fundamental right has been abused throughout the world.

Well, yeah, that’s kinda what power really comes down to.
Wouldn’t go as far as declaring it “divine right”, just “by right of conquest” or some such.

I came to read the thread with my mind made up about that cuck. But, I interpreted what he said was ‘so complex, I can’t quite understand it’. For once, I’ll give this fool a break.

“one which I don’t understand because I’ve only been here a short time,”

That’s right you Royal Pain in the A$$, you don’t understand it and you never will.

It’s meant to keep dialogue going and to prevent dictators like your family lineage has brought to societies over the centuries.

Par for the course that you wouldn’t understand it.

“...I don’t understand”...”

Prince William seems to be a sensible, well put together chap. That’s why he will be King.
Prince Harry however is crazier than his mother. He is really nuts. Let’s hope he doesn’t end up the same way she did.

Dear Harry,

It's better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to constantly open your stupid mouth and remove all doubt.

Learn it, own it, live it.

Maybe he doesn't understand how someone can say, “off with his head” and not be charged with blasphemy.

Someone needs to arrest Harry for speaking his mind on the issue
