The Speech Police in Michigan are getting serious (link)

So much for free speech in Michigan if this bill passes. Everywhere you look, progressives are tearing down our country piece by piece.
A bill moving through the Democrat-controlled Michigan State Legislature would make it easier for prosecutors to bring felonious “hate crime” charges against dissident speech.
The possible implications for preachers, school administrators, teachers, parents, politicians, and citizen activists have alarmed conservatives concerned about the effect the bill may have on free speech.

Yeah this is going to end well.
Anyone attempting to prosecute someone over this should be stripped nude and forced to wear a sandwich board of racial epithets in Flint or Detroit.

Red state AG's and DA's have dropped the ball bigly.

Mich is a communist state.

They'll get just what they deserve by re-electing Gretchen.

1st amendment: Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech...
idiots everywhere: "hey... let's make a law abridging freedom of speech."

If this happens, people will take up arms against progressives.

The proposed legislation, HB 4474, would amend the state’s Ethnic Intimidation Act of 1988 in order to consider it a hate crime if a person is accused of causing “severe mental anguish” to another individual by means of perceived verbal intimidation or harassment.

This could get real entertaining.
“You offended me. Hate crime!”
“I’m offended you’re offended and accused me of hate! Hate crime!”
Both go to jail?

This would get struck down in a heartbeat by the CURRENT SCOTUS. It would be 5-4, with Roberts joining the commies.
Thank you Trump for choosing constitutionalists as Justices!

That's wildly unconstitutional.

Dude, this has basically already happened with the FBI going after mothers at school board meetings. People will not do anything.

Marxism doesn't have a First Amendment. The left wants to make opposition to their insanity a "crime against the state." It is part and parcel of their ideological DNA.

The people of Michigan love this. They can’t get enough of it.

Whoever the first victim is of this will be so lucky. Between a gift wrapped iron clad lawsuit against the state of Michigan they will have so many book tours and media appearances they will be set for life.
