Snyder's lawyers f***ed up by not making this about hate speech. He should have used the liberal tactics to his advantage.

Imagine how this would have turned out if Snyder was black? I picture an entirely different verdict.


Fighting words, and hate speech are legal terms. If you're going to try to use them in conversation, you might want to figure them out.

Your comprehension of the situation, and of the First Amendment protections is rather much off-base.

Perhaps a simple SEARCH for "westboro" will show you the threads where this was already discussed before.

In fact....

Funny how liberal this place gets over some things, and not others.


you have manged to draw the exact opposite conclusion from what the case holds. the case protects the right of an extremely unpopular few against the wishes of the vast majority of the country.

which is exactly why the first amendment is there in the first place. popular speech doesn't need protection.

I think rattler has the answer - I can say without a doubt that local law enforcement would laugh at them if they tried to report having all of their azzes severely beaten during a protest in this area. I'm thinking the solution lies not in the courts, but in enticing them to protest in an area that will not tolerate them. Similar to the example of yelling racial slurs in the hood - Nobody in their right mind would do it twice.

A totally disfunctional family of 7-8 individuals. Not a church, not Baptist and not christian. Do not practice Biblical Christian values.

nope

sir you are the one exercising liberal thought process in this matter


freedom means just that, free to speak your mind no matter how distasteful it is to a few or many

hate speech or hate crimes are offspring of liberal thought and serve an agenda, not freedom


use the opposite of hate crime to see the fallacy of such

what? you love someone of the same race or sexual identity if you assault or kill them?

ludicrous to the extreme

another product of politicians pandering for votes via feel good legislation

liberalism of the highest order


I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

I would like to think that anything that happens to the WBC in Perry County would be handled in Perry County. That said, a jury of peers from Perry would set things right.
