Commentary: The Difference Between Free Speech and Violent Rhetoric (It’s Not What You Think)

United States Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) hit the airwaves to connect the recent assault on Paul Pelosi with “fascism” and “white nationalism.” She insists that both are now ubiquitous. And both prompt increasing politically motivated violence. (Ocasio-Cortez remains oblivious to the greatest sustained political violence in our recent history; the 120 days of Black Lives Matter and Antifa-fueled rioting, arson, looting, and mayhem of summer and fall 2020 – often cheered on or defended by public officials and social media.)

  1. Free speach means just what it means: FREE SPEACH. Not one fucking word or chain of words, AKA sentence should be banned. Shit I'd even take shouting fire in a crowded theater off the table. Cowing to the bully assholes only empowers the turds.

  2. Aye.

    Wish someone would ask the Lefty media 'urinalist' when the free speech issue comes up..."When's the last time someone was convicted of shouting fire in a crowded movie theater?"

  4. You do realize that the Supreme Court Justice that said that line about Fire in a theater was using it as an example of reprehensible speech but not illegal speech, right?

    Our eneMedia and Edumacational system has taken the comment out of context. How unusual.
