The First Amendment protects hateful speech. But that protection does not mean that others are absolved of the moral obligation to confront it with the truth.

RFK Jr. blasts Governor Walz for not understanding the first amendment: “We’re in a very frightening time now where we are seeing the normalization of censorship. I saw this quote Governor Walz, said last year where he said that the First Amendment is not absolute, that it does not protect misinformation or disinformation, and he is legally wrong there, it does protect that. The First Amendment protects speech, true speech, and it protects lies. It protects good speech, and it protects bad speech. It protects all speech.” They didn't pass the First Amendment to protect speech that everybody likes. They passed it to protect the speech that's inconvenient, that's abhorrent, that nobody wants to hear, that's dangerous.” “Louis Brandeis said that the remedy for bad speech, the remedy for lies is not censorship, it's more speech. If we don't understand that, we will lose democracy for sure.”

The first amendment does not exist to protect polite speech that everyone agrees with. It exists to protect speech that people - or the government - find “offensive.” That’s the whole point. And that protection extends to Shiloh Hendrix.

The First Amendment protects peaceful assembly. It does not protect mobs invading private property. You cannot storm a church and call it free speech. That is a violation of civil rights.

The First Amendment protects Americans’ sacred rights of free speech and assembly. But it does not protect interference with lawful police activity—which is what the criminals in LA are doing. The riots must be quelled. Thankfully, we have real leadership in the White House.

Free speech protects humor and parody. It does not protect false accusations that ruin lives. When Big Tech claims “we don’t assess the truth,” that is not neutrality.

BREAKING: Jack Smith just eviscerated the Republican talking point that Trump was protected by the First Amendment when he attempted to defraud the American people. “The First Amendment does not protect speech that facilitates a crime. Speech that is used to facilitate a crime — a fraud crime in particular — is not protected under the First Amendment. The Supreme Court precedent on that is clear.”

Does the UK need a First Amendment? I recently debated the question in London at Academy of Ideas. My argument? Legal protections for free speech are important, but they are not enough. My evidence? The history of the First Amendment.

Some people seem to think freedom of speech protects their 'right' to bully and intimidate others. It does not.

RFK Jr: “Tim Walz has said that he doesn't think that the First Amendment protects misinformation or disinformation, that the government gets to decide what kind of speech is protected.” “Kamala Harris has said the same thing; that if you promote misinformation we're going to punish you, you've abused your privilege. In other words to her, the First Amendment is a privilege not a right.” “When we give government the power to be the arbiter of what speech is protected and which isn't, then that is the end of democracy.”

Paul says that “the wages of sin is death.” What does that mean and how does it tie in to the first chapter of the first book of the Bible?
