If we're not supposed to condemn the jerks that made the anti-islam movie

176. When did I confuse them? FRACKING

RE-READ THE POSTS...

What I have written here, repeatedly, is that the limits lie in INCITEMENT TO A RIOT, SLANDER and SCREAMING FIRE IN A THEATER. Exactly where did I say PROSECUTE the film makers? UNDER CURRENT US LAW it cannot be done, PERIOD... and there are far more complications on this than you can point to, including the VIENA CONVENTION and whether we recognize customary international law. Nor is there any PRECEDENT that would allow the prosecution of an individual under this code, for incitement of a riot over social media.


Where did I state that any of this was hate speech? Please point to it. Or that it was related to the case at hand... I will be waiting.

I am just trying, and failing horribly, to educate you that the first, like the second, is not absolute. The fourth and the fifth come real close to actually absolute. But neither the first or the second are absolute.

I am sorry, for obviously being unable to teach you something that actually matters, and at this point I need to conclude there is some sort of ideological block at work here. But at least you get it that threatening the life of a public official (not just the President) can be a felony... congrats...

So to preserve my sanity, will stop doing this.



There, much better.
