First Amendment

See the problem with narrow mined dumb shits like Concha, HSFBfan, Nolebull, Drummer, etc. is they don't know or respect the United Sates Constitution in particular the Bill of Rights. A-hole's like them screamed and pitched a bitch when anti war demonstrators marched against the Vietnam War. Their cry then was "Love it, or leave it" and that ignorance cost us 58,000 senselessly slaughtered Americian lives.  Native born Blacks, Women, Latino's, and others peacefully march or address a public forum to air grieved situations and they get "GO back to where YOUR KIND" comes from.  How about you uneducated bigoted Trump loving morons take a few minutes to read the First Amendment listed below. You clowns continually shit on it day after day after day. For the dim bulbs out there we'll try and help you comprehend what it says. Oh, and by the way, I spent $100 to get my DNA history. Me and a few Indians want you A-holes out of our country. We're sick of all the crying and bullshit.....your kind (human dinosaurs) is nearing extinction.      

 
 

First Amendment: An Overview

The First Amendment of the United States Constitution protects the right to freedom of religion and freedom of expression from government interference. It prohibits any laws that establish a national religion, impede the free exercise of religion, abridge the freedom of speech, infringe upon the freedom of the press, interfere with the right to peaceably assemble, or prohibit citizens from petitioning for a governmental redress of grievances. It was adopted into the Bill of Rights in 1791. The Supreme Court interprets the extent of the protection afforded to these rights. The First Amendment has been interpreted by the Court as applying to the entire federal government even though it is only expressly applicable to Congress. Furthermore, the Court has interpreted the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment as protecting the rights in the First Amendment from interference by state governments. 

Freedom of Religion

Two clauses in the First Amendment guarantee freedom of religion. The Establishment Clause prohibits the government from passing legislation to establish an official religion or preferring one religion over another. It enforces the "separation of church and state." However, some governmental activity related to religion has been declared constitutional by the Supreme Court. For example, providing bus transportation for parochial school students and the enforcement of "blue laws" is not prohibited. The Free Exercise Clause prohibits the government, in most instances, from interfering with a person's practice of their religion.

Freedom of Speech / Freedom of the Press

The most basic component of freedom of expression is the right of freedom of speech. The right to freedom of speech allows individuals to express themselves without government interference or regulation. The Supreme Court requires the government to provide substantial justification for the interference with the right of free speech where it attempts to regulate the content of the speech. Generally, a person cannot be held liable, either criminally or civilly for anything written or spoken about a person or topic, so long as it is truthful or based on an honest opinion, and such statements.

A less stringent test is applied for content-neutral legislation. The Supreme Court has also recognized that the government may prohibit some speech that may cause a breach of the peace or cause violence. For more on unprotected and less protected categories of speech see advocacy of illegal action, fighting words, commercial speech and obscenity. The right to free speech includes other mediums of expression that communicate a message. The level of protection speech receives also depends on the forum in which it takes place.   

Despite popular misunderstanding the right to freedom of the press guaranteed by the First Amendment is not very different from the right to freedom of speech. It allows an individual to express themselves through publication and dissemination. It is part of the constitutional protection of freedom of expression. It does not afford members of the media any special rights or privileges not afforded to citizens in general.

Right to Assemble / Right to Petition

The right to assemble allows people to gather for peaceful and lawful purposes. Implicit within this right is the right to association and belief. The Supreme Court has expressly recognized that a right to freedom of association and belief is implicit in the First, Fifth, and Fourteenth Amendments. This implicit right is limited to the right to associate for First Amendment purposes. It does not include a right of social association. The government may prohibit people from knowingly associating in groups that engage and promote illegal activities. The right to associate also prohibits the government from requiring a group to register or disclose its members or from denying government benefits on the basis of an individual's current or past membership in a particular group. There are exceptions to this rule where the Court finds that governmental interests in disclosure/registration outweigh interference with First Amendment rights. The government may also, generally, not compel individuals to express themselves, hold certain beliefs, or belong to particular associations or groups.

The right to petition the government for a redress of grievances guarantees people the right to ask the government to provide relief for a wrong through the courts (litigation) or other governmental action. It works with the right of assembly by allowing people to join together and seek change from the government.

Dan, as you already know, Indians are not native to America. They are native to India and South Asia. 

They traveled here and were stuck. Such a fantasy to think native Indians own this land. 

Trump and anyone else needs to rephrase it. 

“Go back to the country that you have allegiance to!!!”

Danny is not a smart guy. He tries. He really does. Just no fuel in the tank as it were.

So, Danny...  the fact is you have zero idea about my views on the Vietnam War.  It might surprise you to know my folks took me to an anti-war protest back in the day when I was a youngster. In fact, I'm very much against sacrificing our young people in futile foreign adventures and state building. Danny, you're a dumbass.

As regards telling ungrateful, always-tuned-into-the-America-hate channel asshats to fuck off, well Danny, it's ALSO the 1st amendment to be able to tell them to GTFO if they don't like it.  See how that works?

Congrats on your DNA test. I'm assuming you passed, though you are one of the few who might be stupid enough to actually find a way to fail. Hey, will the majority of your DNA be leaving soon?  Inquiring minds want to know.

And American Indians didn't have a country in the modern sense of the term. And, well, frankly they lost.  Just like peoples have had happen to them for time immemorial all over the world.

To the Pricks above I stand by the original post. Read the 1st Amendment Nolebull, in particular the Freedom of Religion clause. Daily you make a fool of yourself with this one. Read it Clown. Concha, all your shit's weak. I own you.   

I understand freedom of Religion but what does that have to do with being a dangerous radical? Are you saying America should treat terrorists with sympathy? They blow someone up and you just chalk it up as them practicing their religion? 

Trump exercises his free speech everyday but that doesn’t stop pussies from having meltdowns daily. 

Trump was calling out their Anti American, Anti Semitic rhetoric. He is free to do that.

You continuously tout Christian values, but your views on anyone unlike yourself are pathetic. You're a F'ing hater. Christians have murdered far more then any other religion on Earth. Muslim American citizens are protected by the constitution just like you. You seem to forget that every day.

Muslims don’t assimilate and there is nothing here to accommodate their religion. I have the freedom to be suspicious of such motives. 

It is understandable to allow them to practice their religion freely but that the same time not be naive to their capabilities to commit terror.

Again weak... If true, what you said of your parents, what happened to you ?  No friends, girls in school ?  Clumsy, socially awkward around people. What a disappoint for your folks, they deserved better.

 

As I said Danny the Dummy, I am against sending our young folks into futile foreign adventures. Head over to Amazon and get yourself a copy of Hooked on Phonics. It's Prime Day. You might even get a deal.

Irony noted of the dummy from Daytona making up fantasy shit.  Because that's strong. Right, Dummy?  👍🤣

You might want to reread freedom of speech.  

Although he may feel he had the freedom to say what he wants he’s not free from consequences nor criticism.  And that criticism has declared his speech was racist.  

So if your freedom of speech is indicative of one saying anything without reciprocity then why not allow that SAME freedom to others across the aisle?  Is it because you’re a hypocrite?
