I lost my job yesterday.
I posted on a news site that even the Muslims who don't promote violence do want a world wide caliphate and their means to get it is by out breeding non-muslims.
Facebook banned me for 24 hours.
My boss fired me.
There is no such thing as FREE SPEECH and never was.
"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."
When you hear people talk about "free speech" or "freedom of speech", what they mean is,
THE GOVERNMENT IS NOT ALLOWED to PROSECUTE you or threaten you for speaking your mind, voicing your opinion or sharing your grievances, alone, in private, in public, or even in public in an organized peaceful group.
Everything else that people like you refer to as "free speech", all the bullshit, all the smack talking, all the smears, all the spreading of hate, that ain't free.
YOU MUST PAY FOR EVERY WORD.
The very idea that you believe, or ever BELIEVED, that the Constitution allowed you to run around and talk like some ASSHOLE and not suffer consequences by society means you have never picked up a civics book or history book in your entire ignorant life.
I'm not picking on you, I want you to tell me and everyone else here how you think such a concept could ever work. How could the GOVERNMENT PREVENT SOCIETY from enforcing consequences on you, for saying shit that pisses people off?
How the FUCK could that ever work? How would the Constitution be able to help?
It can't.
And by the way, even when it comes to VALID First Amendment protections, NOTHING is absolute.
First Amendment or not, you're still not allowed to make terroristic threats or yell "FIRE!!!!" in a crowded theater.
Yeah, NO RIGHTS are ABSOLUTE and YOUR rights END where someone else's rights BEGIN.
So stop running around and whining and crying about your "FREE SPEECH", go get another job, grow up, read some books about America, and start being RESPONSIBLE for that giant paranoid hate filled PIE HOLE of yours.
Uncle Sam is under no obligation to prevent your boss from agreeing that you're an asshole whose shitty attitude is bad for his business. He has rights, too. He has the right to protect his business.
That also falls under the First Amendment and it is called "Freedom of Association", which means HE is free to associate with you if he likes, or free to NOT associate with you and disregard you, if he likes.
