Did free speech protection ever cover fraud or defamation?


Wouldn't those be criminal cases?

The first Amendment does not protect a crime. The Amendment protects your right to share ideas freely.

Your second Amendment protects the first.
With muskets and bayonets, right?

The whole idea behind the Second Amendment, of course, was for an armed populace to fight off invasions without the need for a standing military, which the founders considered a danger to the liberties of their citizens.

Except you know, we've got one of those.

*Australian.

You constitution does not take into account nuclear, biological and other complex weapons and is therefore not a suitable document when dealing with modern weapons. It is s**t.

Also, we're required to prove that we can safely store any firearms in an approved gun safe before we can purchase weapons over here, how many US States enforce that? How many guns then go onto the black market?

I guess the founding fathers didn't count on militarized police with machine guns and tanks.

Didn't figure on the Thompson SMG or the Browning Automatic Rifle, either. Not very hep to the technological and social developments of the late 19th and 20th centuries, those guys.

No. It's called fighting for what's right and your freedom. I wasn't implying anything about slave owners. We don't have slavery anymore...did you get the memo? Apparently you don't know what you are talking about and you talk like one of those political figureheads that just spout off useless crap and have no idea what they are talking about.

We don't have slavery? That's a lie. We are all slaves. What you are thinking about is involuntary servitude. I know everything that I am talking about. I have been saying this since 2011 and not ONCE was I proven wrong. I'm not saying that the government is great. They are terrible, but going into a revolution will only give you new owners who will not give you rights. Much like the founding fathers.

Then if you think you're a slave to this Government then you should move out of this country.

As per my quote in my signature.

"People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people."

Never should you ever be afraid of this Government. Stand up against it and fight for what is right. Don't be a slave and break free.
