LAWYER: When Cops Say 'I Smell...


"The First Amendment has been around for a lot longer than Trump and MAGA. It was ratified on December 15, 1791, as part of the Bill of Rights. Trump’s near-constant attacks on it are a serious matter, and we should take them seriously. Our continued exercise of our rights under the First Amendment is essential to its survival."

Kristi Noem is reportedly considering sleeping over in American’s homes (whether or not they want her to) just so she can violate the 3rd Amendment too, and have a matched set of violated Amendments.
All of this talk about having English as a national language is so unAmerican and enforcing it would be unconstitutional. These people do not care about the first amendment, or even the fourteenth. They don't even know the Bill of Rights or the Constitution. It is just another form of xenophobia and they are just upset because they heard someone say something in a language they don't like to hear.

Remember that.
The ‘pleasant fiction’ of a rules-based order has been blown apart. It’s time for Australia to codify a bill of rights
"Clearly something needed to be done to reinforce the rights and safety not just of the Jewish community, but all Australians."
"The immediate response to criminalise and punish was understandable – outlaw hate speech, ban hate groups, prohibit demonstrations and phrases, make the hatred of other human beings and their views go away by force of law and ministerial decree."
"That human rights were again reduced to a debating point in a political game pointed to the need to better define the rights and responsibilities of all citizens and residents."
