@derkatwork33 I figured thats what you were getting at. Cant agree though, not by a long shot. A piece of text and paper is just that, nothing else. It has to be followed, and thats not being done currently at all in egregious ways, and even earlier in US history in smaller ways.
Free speech is absolute, or it isnt free speech. Everything else is but a slippery slope. All the nations held up as the grossest violators of human rights throughout history have also, according to themselves, had "free speech". Namely Soviet union, to name but one example.
Lastly, a few people such as Alex Jones, Snowden, Assange and even president trump would disagree with there being free speech, all of whom have court cases against them involvoing just that in some capactity. Not to mention a lot of whistleblowers who have curiously "unalived themselves" already.
Wake up and smell the coffee. There is, in practice and as shown by overwhelming evidence throughout history, no such thing as free speech anywhere, and there never was. It only extends to the point you start to annoy the ones in power, and thats all she wrote.
Be aware of this, and act accordingly.
