I don't care what the new video showed. He still attacked a cop and tried to take his gun from him. No video is going to change that.

Even a film critical of Muslims? Obama had that filmmaker arrested.

Nope! Just reminding you what your side did.
What does he have to so with this?

You should not have an issue with the fed gov continuing that great tradition!
Yet, I because I don't support Trump, unless he's limiting the government, you keep ignorantly accusing me of being a Democrat.

How many times do I have to state that I think Obama was a poor president before people stop assuming I somehow supported him?

That's not enough on here. You have to either hate him or think he was the worst ever.

You're exaggerating. We'd also accept him being the second worse after Carter.

For what I've heard, the film seems terribly dishonest and morally reprehensible. But a film is free speech, dishonest or not, so I don't think a practical solution in a free society is to take his money.
Incorrect. If the result of intentional dishonesty, is the loss of private property by individuals, they have a case in civil court. If the result is the commission of illegal acts and that result was reasonable foreseeable, he is liable in criminal court for inciting those criminal acts.

On another note, if you want him punished for his dishonesty, then you should want Alex Jones punished for his dishonesty given his history of so many insane and unfounded accusations and conspiracies.
When did Alex Jones' audience go out a riot as a result of his reporting?
Free speech comes with certain responsibilities. Intentional distortions aimed at inciting a riot are not protected.

I prefer to put the blame on the actions of the people doing the illegal acts. They're the ones who bear the accountability for their actions.
Intentionally inciting a riot is illegal and should be prosecuted. Rioting is also illegal and should be prosecuted.

Alex Jones has never incited rioting to my knowledge.
That says more about the people that make up his audience then him really. The left doesn't take much to incite it seems. They love lawlessness and stealing things during riots. a sign of real ignorance and being uneducated. Perpetual cycle of entitlement generation after generation.

The cop did nothing wrong...
...except apply for a job with the Ferguson, Missouri police department.

The film was allowed. Now the creator of the film should be held reasonable responsible for his part in those actions directly related to the release of the film. What do you not understand?

Those Ferguson* boys best be careful.
There's a new sheriff in town. A couple of them, in fact.
* By 'Ferguson boys' I primarily mean whoever Soros has paid to go there & start shite.

quote:Does the film tell people to riot? If it does, then I can see the accusation of inciting a riot. Otherwise, the blame for idiots rioting, who are likely looking for any excuse to riot, should be held solely by the idiots rioting.
Intentionally inciting a riot is illegal and should be prosecuted.

Just like I thought it was absurd that left tried to blame the right's "vitriol" for Gifford's shooting.

I mean if some stupid conspiracy that Jones has been arguing about for years is suddenly picked up by some group looking for a reason to riot, that doesn't all of a sudden make Jones any more or less culpable.
