I don’t know what inspired me to do this today, but I ran into a trove of YouTube videos with all sorts of public comment occurrences. From arrests to all out physical violence. I found one that I think captures why restricting speech is not only wrong, but oppressive when our government seeks to silence its citizens because it can’t take criticism.

GREAT video! I’m listening to it now, incredible. Thanks. I’m going to have to post this!
Have you seen the invite that went out to supposed Tari supporters where he mentions the “extreme views” and “the vocal and nasty minority” in regards to this meeting?!?
Wow…
No! Got a copy?
