Florida declares state of emergency due to American citizen

Post by CFB Apologist »

Excercusing his first amendent right by giving a speech on UFs campus. A white guy is giving a speech- that's a state emergency because tolerant liberals might hit people with bats. This is not the onion

Violent leftists are 100% in the wrong, but that most certainly does NOT make Richard Spencer in the right.

Richard Spencer is a racist and white supremacist. He is not just some random "white guy".

If the moron BLM people would ignore the guy nobody would even know he was giving a speech at UF. I don't agree with what he says be he has a right to say it, ignore him and he is irrelevant. But noooooo..... make a huge stink about it, riot, break things, create hell...... and all the networks will follow it for days as they have been doing.....great plan

Most people don't care what he has to say, some small element of our society does, but he has every right to say it. The MSM was lamenting over the cost of the police for the protests (actually riots) in response to the dude doing a dumb speech. They failed to mention the cost for all the law enforment that was needed in ST. Louis, Baltimore, Charlotte, etc etc etc when the BLM/antifa folks made speeches and created riots

I get that, and he and his message are disgusting. But is the sovereignty, welfare, government, or public works of Florida threatened by his speech? State of Emergency? really? The only reason you would need 300 cops is for the Antifa masked bat partol rioting- not for whatever hate Spencer spews at the podium

Reasonable people don't think he's right. However, that doesn't erase his First Amendment rights. His right to free speech supercedes the depravity of his arguments; and the wish of those to violently negate his right to be an idiot.
