Donald Trump’s War on the First Amendment (from @Truthdig)

Donald Trump’s War on the First Amendment (from @Truthdig): Despite the GOP front-runner’s reputation for speaking his mind and “telling it like it is,” he is an enemy of freedom of speech, suing anyone who says something he doesn’t like. But it gets worse: As president, he promises, he would disma



One thing about the hullabaloo about the protests at the Trump rally in Chicago is that I'm surprised MORE people haven't pointed out the blatant hypocrisy on Trump's part on all of this, as this article clearly points out. While I do believe it was deplorable that the protesters deliberately attempted to deny someone--even if it WAS Trump--their right to speak, I feel it's JUST as deplorable that Donald Trump has advocated "opening up" the libel laws and make it easier for people, especially public figures like HIM, to SUE anyone and everyone who dares "criticize" or pokes fun at him in ANY way. Sorry, Donald, freedom of speech doesn't work that way. The Supreme Court, as this article notes, has already ruled on this a number of times, including the infamous case when the late televangelist Jerry Falwell sued Hustler publisher Larry Flynt for printing a "parody" ad in his magazine showing Falwell saying his first time with a woman was with his very own mother in an outhouse. As reprehensible as that may have been, the SC ruled that it WAS indeed protected by the First Amendment. So, again, sorry, Donald! This is yet another reason why I feel BOTH sides are equally full-of-shit.ntle safeguards that foster robust discussion of public issues.

Brother Of Civil Rights Icon Medgar Evers Endorses Trump | MSNBC





This has got to be one of the MOST condescending interviews I have EVER seen. Let's face facts, if this Charles Evers had been a supporter of, say, Hillary Clinton and got treated like THIS on, say, Fox (Non) News the pundits on MSNBC would howling--you guessed it--RACISM. My favorite part is how the so-called reporter paused after he said (my paraphrasing), "What have the Democrats done for us?" Of course, according to the left-wing media, ALL African-Americans or homosexuals or minorities in general MUST think as they do or they'll get slammed for it. Just ask Caitlyn Jenner!

Milo Yiannopoulos Triggering Rutgers Feminists & BLM supporters (& A Few Words About SJWs In Chicago vs. Trump)





Milo is a controversial gay right-wing commentator who like me, can't stand SJWs. I was watching live coverage of the Trump "protest" at the University Of Chicago and it reminded me of what happened to him at THIS university. SJWs are all the time shutting down speeches by right-wingers at their previous universities. So it wasn't surprising to me what happened at Trump's rally (which, mark my words, will ONLY end up benefiting Trump himself). What I found most telling is how the protesters all hung around even after Trump had shut down his rally (what the hell were THEY standing around for?) where they continued to yell & scream & act like total jackasses like the "protesters" were doing in THIS video--minus the fake blood smearing--and, when they were confronted by reporters and asked why they were "protesting" Trump, all of a sudden they scurried off like frightened bunnies saying how they DIDN'T want to give their opinions. I guess it's far easier to yell & scream & threaten on Twitter and/or in a crowd than it is to be confronted face-to-face on your SJW bullshit, isn't it?
