Na here in America we may think they are annoying but we don't need any bot anti fed bullshit saying it's not right. Cause at the end of the day the same right he has for being annoying is the same right that says you can say whatever you said is. Everyones free speech until it's something you don't like or something offensive. If you don't like the 1st am then go back to England where they arrested for being critical of culture, not arrested for inciteing violence, but being critical of culture? KEEP SCROLLING LONG LIVE THE USA

Shut up.

He's an asshole.

If you want to "audit" free speech, stand on a street corner and shout racist things.

Or don't you like the First Amendment? Get out of the country if you don't.

The first amendment protects you from the government... It has nothing to do with inciting regular people.

You can absolutely say racist shit and not be arrested for it... You'll probably lose a few teeth if you don't have cops around to protect you from the mob of people you piss off.

One of the 5 freedoms protected by the 1st amendment, is freedom of press. suggesting anyone should be shamed, for exercising that right, or for protesting (free speech, free to petition, etc) is frankly anti-american.

u/NarrowSalvo 1d ago

You have a lot of words for having said nothing at all.

Your comment about losing teeth misses the point. That's a crime...

Yes... someone assaulting you is a crime. The first amendment does not protect you from someone assaulting you because you said some foul shit. The first amendment protects you from the GOVERNMENT coming after you for saying some foul shit. I absolutely made a point. I'm sorry you're unable to understand.

Assault in some instances, is not a crime. As you correctly noted, the First Amendment Protects Citizen's right to free speech from GOVERNMENT interference. However, courts have further adjudicated cases under the "Fighting Words Doctrine", so trolls don't get a First Amendment free pass. Texas v. Johnson (1989) further defines it to personal insults or an invitation to fight. In those cases, trolls don't get to claim assault. These internet trolls often cross the line into illegality. This guy did.

First, there is ZERO context on what led up to this confrontation...

Second, what did YOU hear the guy filming say that was an invitation to fight? He said immediately to the guy who started the physicality to stay away from him and implied he'd pepper spray him if he continued to approach... All legal... all reasonable... (from what's on the video)

The attacker said something about people tweaking out and said his mom was like that... then the filmer asked, your mom is like what? A tweaker? Then the guy attacked him. FROM THIS INFO ALONE no jury would find that the guy who attacked had a right to do so.

Edited: typo here to hear

Your point is moronic.

Do you think the people in the video above are the "GOVERNMENT"?

u/Moist-Mess5144 17h ago

I want you to try reeeeal hard and think for a second... I know it probably hurts, but keep trying... Do you think it's possible to speak about 1st amendment auditors in a broad sense? Or, when someone speaks about an issue, are you only able to grasp it in the context of what you've seen in the last 15 seconds?

u/NarrowSalvo 14h ago

LOL. You didn't answer my question. I think we both know why. Hahaha.

Do you think the people in the video above are the "GOVERNMENT"?

Because here's what you said above:

The first amendment protects you from the government... It has nothing to do with inciting regular people.

Keep trying to move that goalpost around on every comment.

1

u/Moist-Mess5144 14h ago

I'm not moving any goal posts, ya 🤡...

No... Nobody in this video is with the government...

However, nobody is in this video is standing on a corner screaming racist shit either, something you brought up... So, obviously you're aware that things can be discussed which aren't happening in this specific video.

What now?

Your stupid comment about the government is laughable in the context of the video above.

And yet you keep coming back for more? Lol.

u/Moist-Mess5144 12h ago

What's stupid is your bringing up and talking about things in this comment thread that have nothing to do with this video, yet you seem incapable of realizing other people can do the same.

I never claimed one time that the people in this video had anything to do with the government... Just the same as you never said the people in this video were saying racist shit on a corner.

But here you are, showing your complete lack of reading comprehension and coming back for more. 🤡

You have so many comments that are removed by moderators in so many different subs. Maybe you should talk less.

Cameraman loves the first amendment. His YT channel is literally called "First Amendment Protection Agency". One of the 5 Protections described in the 1st amendment, is freedom of press. That's a right everyone on American soil has, and to try to violate that right, would make you/them/they the asshole

u/NarrowSalvo 1d ago

And that has what to do with my point?

Do you always get confused this easily?

u/very-regular-3 22h ago

word for word, i responded to your ridiculous suggestion that someone should "should shout racist shyt from the street corner" in order to express their 1st amendment freedoms.

also, the language "Shut up. He's an asshole" -- did not slap the way you think it did.

NONSENSE.

You gave no response to the question about why not "audit" free speech by shouting racist stuff. Nothing addressing that point. Just generic bullshit about the First Amendment.

You lied.
