"if the SCOTUS rules that funeral protests are not protected by the first amendment, Leftists will engage in a full-scale assault on conservative speech everywhere, regardless of form." See there we are, caught in a catch 22 – you are damned if you do -- damned if you don't.
John, I don't think we have any disagreement, but the national psychosis does need analysis.
This logic has produced such inane Constitutional rights as burning the flag and accepting a crucifix in a bottle of urine as artful expression. Without common sense, including a shared moral/ethical standard, both political positions, conservative and progressive alike, become nothing beyond irreconcilable political delusions to be exploited by progressives “playing” the judicial system.
Further, until the existing ethical/moral incongruence and shared apathy concerning truthfulness are reversed, I venture to predict that all US political interaction will be non-productive, incomprehensible, and chaotic. |
