You should give a damn what she believes: Pamela Geller is flat out dangerous.

52. Conflating support for the first amendment...

with support for Geller is far from cute.

But I will play... you think that people who believe that the first amendment has no limits are far leftists? I got news for you, this is lack of knowledge of the well trodden case law on actual limits is quite common all over, left, right and center, and it is a failure of the US Educational system. I have seen people I consider to be on all of those posting this absolute defense of the first amendment.

For the record, the show was protected, and getting any judge to agree to incitement will be a really tough road to hoe. But if anybody wants to file, I will follow that one... mostly for the entertainment value. It should be really amusing, given the long precedent.

Does that mean I agree with her views? That be conflating. But strictly from a first amendment perspective, LEGALLY she has not crossed any of those pesky things that would limit her right to free speech in the United States. She gets close regularly, but not over the line. And if you have a problem with this, and why we protect her speech, perhaps you should review why you support something, or not.

You should also become familiar with actual case law before you continue down this line The case in Skokie Ill, where NAZIS IN UNIFORM wanted to march through a neighborhood full of holocaust survivors got even closer to that line and a judge found that they had every right to do it.

I guess that judge was a far lefty.

The OP has a point, her speech is dangerous, but SO FAR... it is still protected. That does not mean she does not belong in a hate list from the SPLC... or a few other things. That is the social penalty that we all can give bigots.
