I cannot believe that anyone would buy into the myth that the First Amendment protects the right to commit any and all acts, so long as speech is one of the tools used to commit the act. If that were true, there could be no laws dealing with bullying, perjury, terroristic threats, bank robbery, extortion, etc. Anything that involves speech would magically be legal. LOL
Exactly.
BTW, I was reading through the comments on the Fox website and found this from the American Legion. It appears that they are setting up a fund to help with the expenses so that if the Snyders are forced to pay up, that it won’t cost them a nickel.
