We can add this to the many other absurd, unjust laws, including:

1. Drug prohibition
2. Large soda prohibition
3. All gun control laws
4. All taxation

We live in a world where this is illegal but calling a someone a “trans man” is perfectly acceptable.

Maybe it is time for a revolution

What if I'm driving around listening to Genesis with my windows down?

The actual ordinance is ill-advised and possibly unconstitutional for several reasons. THEN we get the INTERPRETATION of the ordinance from the de Blasio administration, which is even MORE ill-advised and which is CLEARLY unconstitutional for even MORE reasons.



Aww, come on AggieHank can’t you come up with a bullshite parsing of the First Amendment making it not say what it actually says, the same way you do with the Second Amendment? Are you sure that free speech wasn’t meant for only certain Americans?

Eventually espousing any non-leftist idea will be deemed hateful and illegal.

This is how they always start it.

It is "possibly" unconstitutional, but you know what, it is for the best! Just like Obamacare.

We know what is good for you. For now, we will somewhat give some semblance that we give a crap about you and what you think.

Reality is, we KNOW this is unconstitutional but we hate your guts and want you destroyed. By the time you realize that, it will be too late.

DAMMIT!!! I was up there Thursday evening - Saturday evening. If I had known that I would have made damned sure to say it aloud around as many cops as possible. I could use a fat 1st Amendment settlement.

That's why we must vote anything but Democrat! They are out to destroy our country. We will fall from within if the lunatics from the left continue to gain power.

Possibly?
Have any of you three taken the time to find and read the ordinances themselves, as opposed to the 29-page memo from de Blasio regarding the manner in which he wants to see it enforced? Or (worse yet) only the talking points.

Probably not, because the linked article does not quote it, and it took me several minutes to track it down.

There is no question that de Blasio’s application would be unconstitutional. The actual language of the ordinance? Probably the same, but less clear,

If you disagree, perhaps you can contribute more than an emoticon. But that would require expending actual mental energy.

It is almost as if you clowns are INCAPABLE of examining facts, rather than being good little cheerleaders and chanting the approved mantras.

FFS , I am AGREEING with you, and you STILL find something to bitch about ... because I am not agreeing loudly enough.
