Should people be free to spew hateful, racist rhetoric and ideology in a provocative manner?
Chill Rusty, before ninja gets Meth in here to get us all back in line.
Wasn't directed at you. I quoted ninjahood, but thought better of it. I don't want to slow down the thread with a back and forth about the merits of reporting posts.I'm not quiet at all; I'm engaging. There is no game. A young lady lost her life due to idiots who believe they are superior based on the color of their skin. It is indefensible. As a nation we need to re-evaluate whether large groups of these hate-filled rioters should be allowed to gather for a protest in the first place.
They have that freedom. Does that freedom to spew that mess eliminate people's almost natural reaction to become angry and violent against them?
There's nothing to evaluate. You have freedom to speak. That freedom does not mean that your words won't anger people to the point they want to lay hands on you....the end
They are already not allowed to protest in such a fashion as to provoke violence. It's why their permit was revoked and they were told to go home.I'm not quiet at all; I'm engaging. There is no game.

i am first generation american, from a german mother. I have spent a good amount of time over there, and my sister lived there for a while. And as i said before, the vast majority of germans do not **** with the nazi ********. They do not take it lightly, and are very aware of the past.
On another note, what is it with these right wingers crying about antifa? I havent heard about them until recently, are these people really out here causing problems in large numbers or is it just some small fringe group that the right wingers like to point at and say 'see liberals are violent'?
Trump is just really really stupid isn't he lmao
Can't believe he retweeted a cartoon of a CNN reporter getting run over
He deleted it but not before it got out there and passed around
I'm saying that I think that it is time for this country to really re-evaluate what is considered "protected speech."
That's exactly my point. Since that is the natural reaction, perhaps they shouldn't have that freedom to spew the nonsense in the first place.

I am pretty sure that everyone, in this thread at least, agrees that white supremacy and the KKK and any other racist group is indefensible. Yet, these idiots were given a permit to protest and showed up in riot gear. As a country we need to re-evaluate whether such speech should be permitted in the first place.
First of all I do not think everyone here in this thread agrees that white supremacy is indefensible. That's not a reference to you btw, said inShould people be free to spew hateful, racist rhetoric and ideology in a provocative manner?

Bruh said 'disgusting things' and listed Antifa on a Tuesday after a weekend white supremacy rally where a woman was killed by a Neo-Nazi terrorist plowing a vehichle into crowd of non-violent protesters.
You all have a ton of soul searching to do as does everyone else not only complicit in with their heads in the sand, but actually picking a side that isn't against racism and hate.

The first amendment doesn't need to be changed, people just need to learn that freedom of speech =/= freedom from consequences and that inciting violence or theoretically yelling 'fire' in a crowded movie theatre is not protected by freedom of speech.
I pray that some of you take the time to actually educate yourselves on things like law and policy and especially the constitution if you want to engage in such a discussion.
Just put that **** in a museum.
Like how hard is that?
Who cares when we can flood them with sweet libbie tears
