The only way to ensure free speech is to shut up those doing all the talking, so others can talk.

And according to the Statist, that gives them the right to control you in every possible way.

I suggest reading your state's constitution before crying about liberty
I’ve got news for you:

The Constitution is a piece of paper.

It has nothing to do with my liberties.

More performative manhood. I'm really not impressed by it. But rest assured, I am doing everything I can to protect my family. Not sure you could say the same, if you are even in the same position as me (probably a flawed assumption, as you seem too juvenile to have a family at all).

And by this I'm sure you're referring to the fact that constitutions can be amended, and not that you are openly advocating for the violent overthrow of democratically elected government. Right?

That's pretty glib. I prefer not to put your claim to the test.



Then never let you kid leave the house and put them in a plastic bubble. Sorry, you’re taking risks every day to one degree or another, and intelligent people can mitigate risks. Instead you want the government to do that for ME, and I say frick you. I know where this rodeo ends. If you think you can surrender my civil liberties, then go take a long walk off a short pier. When I say “Give me liberty or give me death” I mean that quite literally. I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees.

Nah, if so you wouldn't need government to tell you what to do.


You need them to successfully raise a family, I don't.

The sad part is you THINK you are caring for your family, but you're actually exposing them to great danger. Your performance of manly virtue does not impress me at all.


Do you ever allow your family to ride in a motor vehicle? You manly man you.

1/6 gave them the pretext. They are going to frick people up. The solitary confinement, which everyone should abhor, being used for misdemeanor level crimes is insane.

The FBI's little "kidnapping" plot in MI was absolutely insane. When half of the people in the "plot" are working for the FBI, there's a big problem. The other problem is that the people charged with the crime are being refused discovery by the feds so they can't prepare for a decent legal defense.

Yep, you definitely lost a step, Roger. Time comes for us all. No shame in it.

I would put money on the fact that every serious issue we have faced in this country was pushed by the FBI.

I’ve already said this but it’s obviously worth repeating:

For someone that thinks he’s so intelligent, you should at least know the meaning of the words you’re typing.

Politically, I openly advocate for national divorce. So you can live in a state that will police your every move under the guise of “safety”, and I can live in a free state, and we can both be happy.

People's protection from hearing/seeing mean things is paramount to freedom and liberty, so in order to protect your freedoms, the government needs to tell you what you're allowed to say. Also, in order to maximize the amount of freedom you can have, you're not allowed to say anything bad about the government or expose them because that means they would have to focus on things other than giving you freedom.
