Insulting one's intelligence is not a substitute for a good argument.

Insulting one's intelligence is not a substitute for a good argument.

"Good argument" assumes there is room for debate. On my side, I have dozens of Supreme Court cases and perhaps hundreds, if not thousands of Circuit Court, District Court, and State Court cases, decided by both Dem and Pub judges, affirming the well-recognized constitutional principle that the First Amendment applies to the States through the 14th Amendment. And you're going to respond, "That's not what the 14th Amendment says," "where does the 14th Amendment specifically refer to the 1st Amendmend," "that's just the judges' opinion but its not law," "the judges ought to be impeached," and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. You are wrong, get over it, and move to an area of legitimate debate.
