So. I assume I can count you in the "oppose statue removal" category?

Yes, I actually do oppose removal. I understand it is an unpopular opinion among liberals but I really don't see the point.

Nope. Leftists have widely been trying to silence "hate speech" for decades. And they've managed install censorship on many college campuses and within many corporations already


If by decades you mean since the late 1980s/early 1990s okay. Before then the surest way to get a liberal to shoot fire from their eyes was to mention anything putting restrictions on the First Amendment or freedom of speech. Today's liberals would consider the liberals of forty years ago to be racists.

It's always fun to talk to them about topics without assigning specific labels or categories.

Those were liberals. What we have today are authoritarians they aren't liberals at all.

Of course. The liberals of the past were the ones fighting for the KKK's right to protest.

Free speech is relative to the government, not other citizens. A lot of you guys seem to have a basic misunderstanding of this basic premise.


I appreciate the 1st Amendment restrains specifically the federal government. While Congress shall not make a law respecting the right of the people peaceably to assemble, Congress may, and has, made innumerable laws restricting the right of states (by incorporation of the 5th Amendment), agencies and ,yes, other citizens (cap on campaign donations, e.g.) to smother the lawful speech of others. The Oligarchs will never stop trying to silence the disadvantaged, wherever and whenever they are. Common law jurisprudence finds the government may impose reasonable restrictions on speech (having to obtain a permit to assemble, bans on obscenity). To assert that the 1st Amendment is not relative to citizens is a sin of omission of the first order.

TL;DR The misunderstanding is yours.

You are either blind or you never ever watch the left wing media.

Why is it that liberals constantly accuse other people of doing the exact same shite they do?

SO MUCH FOR "IT's NOT THE GOVT SO IT'S NOT CENSORSHIP ARGUMENT

UPLAND >> A group that had announced plans to hold a rally in Upland next month in support of President Donald Trump’s national security policies is now looking for a new location to assemble.

The city had not received a permit request for the rally, but the permit would have been denied, said interim City Manager Martin Thouvenell.

“In view of the issues going on in the United States, the casualties and injuries, I would not be inclined to issue this type of permit,” he said.


because of the threats from the left

To repeat for our lefties.

Imagine, if you will, the KKK having enough power to create violence in enough places that cities, universities and other locations were refusing permits or canceling events for blacks using the "for everyone's safety" excuse.

Just wrap your brain around what the left is telling us is completely OK and normal.
