Free Speech

[Esmeralda]

People, listen up.

Calling people fags, queers, homos, ass fuckers, *****, *******, wet backs, perverts, sick, dykes, subhuman, feminazis, evil, etc....

Will result in people in return calling you bigots, racists, homophobes, sexist, misogynists, bullies, assholes, fuckhead face *****, etc.

....

Then you are bigots, racists, homophobes, sexist, misogynists, bullies, assholes, fuckhead face *****, etc.


...

Using language like this ^^^ may be a matter of free speech, but it is also a matter of being uncivilized wretches. People who use such language take pride in be Cretins and yet they expect others in society to respect them and their ideas. That won't happen.

If you try to pass laws restricting rights to your specific in group, or legally oppress people, or deny them their rights, or suggest that it should be that way in this country...

Then you are bigots, racists, homophobes, sexist, misogynists, bullies, assholes, fuckhead face *****, etc.

No one is taking away your right to say bigotted things, no one is taking away your right to think bigotted things, and no one is legally forcing you to personally accept or be anything you are bigotted against. You don't have to get gay married, you don't have to get an abortion, you don't have to give up your religion, you don't have to be black or poor or handicapped or a woman.

But you can't discriminate aginst them. That is unethical, immoral, and illegal. And unconstitutional.

And when you whine about being socially marginalized, just remember: so are Nazis, the KKK, white supremacists, and other relics of a bygone era. The government can't marginalize you, but the rest of society can.

That is all.

Must be getting close to election time...first Sealybobo, now CMM.

You know, Stranger, we're here between elections too.

You know you agree with me, Missourian, come on now!

Sure I do, but I also notice the glaring omissions of redneck, hillbilly, and cracker.

 

[USNavyVet]

This country isn't yours. Your country, the Fatherland, died in 1945.

He doesn't sound like a socialist.

The German socialists had been murdered or imprisoned by the fascists. Learn your history.

Fascism and socialism are very closely related. Learn you definitions.

That is true, but still they were murdered and imprisoned by the fascists.

Fascism & Communism, in practice, are two sides of the same coin, agreed.

As a West Virginian, I take redneck and hillbilly as a term of endearment.

I've been called worse things... by my mother.

If treating you like dirt is all that she ever did to you after bringing you into this world, you are better off without her...especially if she isn't sorry for anything that she has done wrong.

God bless you always!!!

We claimed it, repurposed it.

I understand it when blacks call each other nigga or worse, it's acceptable.

Another redneck hillbilly calls me a redneck hillbilly, no problem...while some jumped up city slicker saying the same would cause a...heated discussion on the topic of rural social etiquette.

Nope, sorry, peckerhead is too close to peckerwood, which WOULD have been acceptable, except in cannot be used in conjunction with backwoods...too much wood.

Backwards-ass Country ***** is my wife's go-to expletive...She's from Detroit.

I am glad USNavyVet, by omission, admitted he was wrong.

Fascism has left wing and right wing variants.

Communists, despite with bfgrn and others want to argue, is exclusively a leftist disease.

It is understood that many on the partisan right perceive private society’s condemnation of speech considered inappropriate in the context of the myth of ‘political correctness’ as de facto ‘censorship’ and a ‘violation’ of ‘free speech,’ and they are entitled to that subjective and incorrect perception.

The fact remains, however, that private society’s condemnation of speech considered inappropriate in no way constitutes ‘censorship’ or a ‘violation’ of ‘free speech,’ de jure or de facto – as only governments have the authority to censor and subject citizens to punitive measures if they engage in ‘prohibited’ speech.

Private society has no such authority, it cannot punish citizens with fines and/or imprisonment, and therefore its condemnation of speech has nothing to do with the First Amendment, where the rights enshrined in the First Amendment address only the relationship between the citizen and his government.

Consequently, those on the partisan right who contrive myths such as ‘political correctness’ and the notion that private society’s condemnation of inappropriate speech is ‘censorship’ do so pursuant only to hyperbole and demagoguery in an effort to realize some perceived political gain or advantage.

It is understood by whom? I mean, you keep repeating this nonsense, and then ignoring every single attempt to educate you on the truth, does that mean you are the only person in the universe that understands this?

Here is an academic article on the benefits of speech codes on campus, want to tell me again that they don't exist?

At Emory University, certain conduct that is permissible off campus is not allowed on campus. Specifically, some speech and behaviors are prohibited in Emory's version of what are derogatorily labeled "politically correct" codes but are more commonly known as hate speech codes. Emory's code begins with its definition of banned behavior.
Discriminatory harassment includes conduct (oral, written, graphic or physical) directed against any person or, group of persons because of their race, color, national origin, religion, sex, sexual orientation, age, disability, or veteran's status and that has the purpose or reasonably foreseeable effect of creating an offensive, demeaning, intimidating, or hostile environment for that person or group of persons.
There were approximately 75 hate speech codes in place at U.S. colleges and universities in 1990; by 1991, the number grew to over 300. School administrators institute codes primarily to foster productive learning environments in the face of rising racially motivated and other offensive incidents on many campuses. According to a recent study, reports of campus harassment increased 400 percent between 1985 and 1990. Moreover, 80 percent of campus harassment incidents go unreported.
Hate speech codes follow several formats. Some codes, including Emory's, prohibit speech or conduct that creates an intimidating, hostile, or offensive educational environment. Others ban behavior that intentionally inflicts emotional distress. Still others outlaw general harassment and threats," without clarifying what constitutes such conduct. Court rulings have prohibited public (state-run) colleges and universities from enacting codes that restrict the constitutional right to free speech based on content. Private institutions, in contrast, are not subject to these decisions. Emory, for example, as a private university, can ignore public law rulings and draft whatever hate speech policy it chooses.

Free Speech: Campus Hate Speech Codes

The fact remains, however, that private society’s condemnation of speech considered inappropriate in no way constitutes ‘censorship’ or a ‘violation’ of ‘free speech,’ de jure or de facto – as only governments have the authority to censor and subject citizens to punitive measures if they engage in ‘prohibited’ speech.

You repeated that lie even after I posted actual court decisions that contradict you?

Interesting.

Private society has no such authority, it cannot punish citizens with fines and/or imprisonment, and therefore its condemnation of speech has nothing to do with the First Amendment, where the rights enshrined in the First Amendment address only the relationship between the citizen and his government.

Yet the government still, occasionally, feels the need to step in and make sure that speech is protected form those things you just said that cannot happen. Is that because you don't know nearly as much about the law as you pretend you do? Or is it because you are a stupid fuckface?

Consequently, those on the partisan right who contrive myths such as ‘political correctness’ and the notion that private society’s condemnation of inappropriate speech is ‘censorship’ do so pursuant only to hyperbole and demagoguery in an effort to realize some perceived political gain or advantage.

If is amazing the people you think are on the partisan right. Jonathon Turley is pretty famous for his left wing columns, yet he and I completely agree on the danger to free speech from idiots like you.
