Three 13 yo kids in Maryland charged with HATE CRIME for displaying swastikas!!

[Into the Night]

just like the protestors where rittenhouse tried to speak...........so what crime was there?

Attempted assault.

"I have guns to protect from government overreach" is strikingly close in rhetoric to "the 2020 election was stolen" in that both are insincere statements that are covering for something embarrassing.

Democrats SHOULD be embarrassed for stealing the 2020 election.

Free speech means displaying a swastika must be allowed.

A swastika is not owned by Hitler. It is a religious symbol. Hitler turned the outward swastika on its edge and put it on his flag to symbolize the spread of the Reich over all the world. Since then, a lot of people have forgotten the meaning of the swastika since Hitler managed to poison the meaning of this symbol.

The outward swastika signifies the outward influence of the temple (or shrine) upon the community.
The inward swastika signifies the inward influence on a believer of that temple (or shrine).

Displaying either an outward or inward swastika is allowed. It's even on several government buildings.
Threats of assault IS a crime in many States. That includes any Hitler types threatening a Jew, or people chasing Rittenhouse. That does NOT make it a thought crime nor a police state. The swastika itself is allowed, but threatening people with assault is not.

The first amendment applies only to the federal government. It does not apply to State governments at all.

That said, most States have similar limitations on their government in their own constitutions.

Threats of assault is not free speech.

Merely offending people should not be a crime. We live in a police state - like north korea.

Offending people is not a crime or a civil offense. But threats and intimidation are illegal.

The first amendment applies only to the federal government. It does not apply to State governments at all.

Until 1925 when Gitlow v. NY made the 1st Amendment applicable to the states.

You told us there was no 2020 election.

Conservatives always lie because there is nothing about them, their personalities, their policies, or their beliefs that are worth defending.

Once upon a time they at least pretended to believe in American values like democracy, freedom, law and order, etc. Now they're full-on Trumpers who care only for authoritarianism, isolationism and walls, white supremacism, govt. control of all citizens, fascism.

The idiot didn't even read the text of his own link, where it states that the boys stalked and harassed an individual human being. He tried to make it sound like they merely had a swastika drawn on their notebook or t-shirt and some "libtard" or "woke" someone got the vapors.

The student harassed is Jewish

The student harassed is Jewish

Yep, targeted for her religion. Hence the hate crime charges. There's some great parenting there, eh?

No court has the authority to change the Constitution, Sock.
The 1st amendment does not apply to the States.

There was no 2020 election because Democrats stole it, Sock. Semantics fallacy.

No court has the authority to change the Constitution, Sock.
The 1st amendment does not apply to the States.

Wrong. You tell us the same falsehoods repeatedly.

The Supreme Court effectively changed the Constitution when it used the 14th due process clause to make the 1st amendment applicable to the states in 1925 in Gitlow v. NY.

Since you don't believe there was an election in 2020 you must also have missed the Gitlow case in 1925. That's OK. None of us can keep up with all the major news stories.

There was no 2020 election because Democrats stole it, Sock. Semantics fallacy.

I guess there was no election in 2016 because the Republicans stole it.

Both are equally delusional claims based on the refusal to admit losing.

l

Where does the constitution say that.? And don't tell me the supreme court says so. They have no authority to rewrite the constitution and call it an "interpretation."

You want to add something to the constitution, go thru the amending process.

Law and order??? HAHAHAHA. This moron tranny says it supports law and order while while also supporting 60 million undocumented democrats invading america and living here in violation of law!

Affirmative action laws target whites for their race. Why isn't that a hate crime.?

 

[Into the Night]

Where does the constitution say that.?

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

And don't tell me the supreme court says so. They have no authority to rewrite the constitution and call it an "interpretation."

That is correct.

You want to add something to the constitution, go thru the amending process.

Also correct.

Read the 1st amendment. It applies specifically to Congress (the federal government). It does not apply to the States at all.

Indeed, States once had state religions, which is perfectly legal at the time for them. Since then, all remaining States have placed the same limits concerning state religions in their own constitutions by the amendment process. These States now prohibit laws concerning state religions. Some of them also now also prohibit their legislatures from passing any law curtailing freedom of speech (as in political discourse).

Amendments 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 17, 19, 21, 24, and 26 apply to the federal government and the States and the States are bound by these amendments.
Amendments 1, 15, 16, 29, 22, and 23 apply only to the federal government.

No court has any authority to change that.

Like other Democrats, she is trying to blame the problems of the Democrats on Trump.
