I think you meant 1st amendment when you were talking about free speech. As to only Democrats being pissed about Russian meddling, the reason is that Republicans recognize McCarthyism for what it is. Of course, the Russian's meddled, but it's not the apocalypse that you say it is. They only spent $16M versus the $1.8B that the candidates themselves spent. So let's not blow this out of proportion. In addition, the CIA spends billions on meddling in elections all over the world. All this meddling isn't new and our NSA, FBI and CIA work to counter it every day, in addition to counterpunching through their own propaganda. They don't need help from a bunch of hysterical whiny cry baby Dems going nuts over it.

The bottom line is that the Dems don't care about all that. All they care about is using it to try to bring Trump down, even though he's not guilty of colluding with Russia and Hillary is.

As to hate speech, the day we get laws like Europe does, banning any speech they don't like is they day this country's Democracy and freedom is over, just as it is in Europe. On that day, we will have completed our journey to become exactly like Russia and China...brought to you by the Dem party that is complaining about Russia collusion today. The Dems are working hard to make us exactly like Russia. How hypocritical is that?
