What is Snowden treated like a hero in some circles?
He certainly illegally accessed a system and released its information playing the moral authority card and didn't go through proper channels.
The argument put forth in the case was completely different.
Secondly, the court case you provided upholds the position that a homosexual owned catering/service business would be forced to attend a WBC rally.
All lawful things protected by the 1st Amendment and upheld by the Supreme Court.
Using the same logic, forcing a Christian wedding photographer to listen to an offensive homosexual wedding ceremony, as a business, should be forced to endure it.
The Westburo Baptist Church is an federally/IRS recognized 501c3 religious organization. Their anti-homosexual protests where they spew hate have been upheld by the Supreme Court as lawful exercise of their religious expression/free speech.
Say that there is a homosexual owned/operated...
Its interesting that you put for this this progressive interpretation of the homosexual lifestyle while that faction spews continuous hate towards people who may not agree with it specifically religion.
You paint a picture that these progressive groups want to hold hands and sing with in...
Incorrect on all accounts.
Hate speech is a made up term and the Supreme Court has already upheld WBC right to conduct these events.
Failure to cater such an event if your business caters would be text book religious discrimination.
The current disfunction is the middle east can be directly attributed to Obama/Clinton destabilization policies in the middle east during the disaster that was the 'arab spring'.
The Westboro Baptist Church is a federally recognized religious organization and its protests are legal protected speech/religious expression.
Would you fine or jail the a homosexual owner/operate of a catering/service company for refusing to cater a WBC anti-homosexual rally?
Refusal to cater...
California/Los Angeles prosecuted (resulting in a plea/no-contest) Holly Ashcraft under similar circumstance.
Do you hold the state of California/Los Angeles in the same respects?
The Supreme Court has ruled numerous times including Snyder v. Phelps that government cannot be the arbiter of speech thus making the term 'hate speech' complete subjective and without meaning.
Who are you to judge what is/is not hate speech? The simple fact that you are trying to discredit certain forms of speech because you and you alone may not agree with it undermines the core foundation of what the United States was founded on.
So your position is that a homosexual wouldn't be required to cater/service/photograph an event containing what they view as hate speech but a heterosexual would be required to cater/service/photograph an event containing what they view as hate speech.
Got it.
Its called harassment.
And doxing the daughter because you don't agree with their parents political decisions is ok and/or they shouldn't face consequences?
Of course there will be no repercussions on the ongoing harassment brought on the daughter because her contact information was...
So why would someone be forced to say photograph a homosexual wedding when the speech at that wedding (the ceremony) is equally offensive to that person?
Just for clarification, you believe that the government should both criminally and civilly require a homosexual owned bakery which offers catering to attend a protest by the WBC disparaging of the homosexual lifestyle/marriage/ect?
That seems pretty fucked up.
Would you say the same thing...
Would you expect a homosexual owned bakery to cater a Westboro Baptist Church protest against homosexual marriage?
As the WBC is a IRS 501c3 religious organization, refusal to cate if the business already does such would be discrimination of a protected group.
Should a homosexual owned bakery should be legally compelled to cater any WBC protests even when those protests are against homosexuals? As refusing to do so would be discriminating against the WBC based on their religion?
Its really sad that the progressive usually has to resort to name calling 'anti-science', 'anti-minority', 'anti-progress', 'anti-woman', 'anti-poor' to have a conversation on an issue.
Typical gas lighting behavior to change the frame to someone else being 'stupid'.
It is pretty hilarious that Anantech thinks its network usage it reflective of the vast majority of households. Pricing of $1/GB would be a fantastic deal for almost every household in America.
When the Democrats controlled the House and the Senate and the GOP in the Senate wanted 'clean' bills it was the GOP holding the country hostage.
When the GOP controlled the House and the Democrats controlled the Senate and the GOP passed clean bills out of the House but the Democrats wouldn't...
What are you talking about? The House passed legislation to fully fund the DHS legal operations and the Senate Democrats refused to vote on it, leading to this impasse, and a potential shutdown necessitating this stop gap measure.
The Democrats are just pissy because the GOP doesn't want to...
But congress never enacted such funding.
If Obama doesn't like the immigration laws does that mean he gets to change them or does that mean congress has to offer a legislative solution????
Separation of powers ;)
So what is the role of congress if it is not to authorize spending?
If not, what sections of the Constitution authorizes the executive branch to tax and then allocate spending to executive orders?
Or you know, you are full of shit.
You are going to mock me, please elaborate as to his executive order (which was stuck down by the courts) regarding illegal aliens and how he has put forth policy to punish anyone who upholds the ruling by the legislative branch.
Here is my philosophy. I understand why some people might be in favor of this. I can understand why some people are against this. I cannot fathom why anyone would be in favor of doing this via executive action.
