This is as ignorant as it is wrong.In the wake of Colin Kaepernick's "protests", Leftists have been shouting the same justification for his ungrateful actions. "It's his 1st Amemdment Right!" they cry. Yet, when Trump, for instance, calls one fat girl fat, he is universally condemned by those same Liberals. Shouldn't we ALL be held to the same standard? We are, after all, created equal under God. If Trump wants to call O'Donnel fat then it should be well within his rights to do so without being criticized. Again, compare him to Kaepernick.
Trump calls an overweight girl fat, gets called a women-hater.
Kaepernick disrespects the flag of our great nation and all those -white and black- who sacrificed their lives to defend his rights, gets hailed as a hero and patriot.
Those who believe that the Constitution freedoms only apply to their particular beliefs -Left AND Right- need to pick up a copy and read it. The 1st is for ALL American citizens, not just Liberals.
Many ‘liberals’ disagree with Kaepernick, but acknowledge he’s at liberty to express himself in a free and democratic society.
‘Liberals’ also support Trump’s right to freely express himself, and consistent with a free and democratic society, appropriately denounce Trump’s hate and stupidity.
To oppose the ignorant, hateful things Trump says is not to seek to ‘deny’ him the ability to express his ignorance, stupidity, and hate.
You’re confusing opposing that which is expressed with seeking to deny someone the means by which to engage in free expression, and your ridiculous thread premise fails as a consequence.
