Our 1st Amendment has taken some hits...but at least we have one.

The Left has found two novel ways to attack the 1A: They now call any speech they don’t like either “hate speech” or “misinformation”. And from what I can tell, these attacks have so far been quite successful.

I was stationed at Goose AB many years ago. A huge RCMP mountie brought a suspect thought to have committed several thefts on base to the Air Police for questioning. After watching the USAF cops question the suspect ineffectually for about an hour the mountie had enough. He grabbed the suspect by his lapels, lifted him up, and threw him through a wall. “Now he’ll answer your questions,” the mountie said.

For now....but the dems and big tech are on it....under the banner of “misinformation”...they desperately desire a federal ministry of truth...with arrest powers....

Getting someone fired or canceled for undesired speech is not enough for them....they want to criminalize resistance of any type.
