#1 I feel like Alice in Wonderland after going down the rabbit hole; up is down, black is white, big is small, in is out, restricting speech is really free speech.

#2 Do away with free speech and peaceful assembly and now free press. The Left only wants power.

#4 Per IowaHawk - You can regulate hate speech, if I can define what that means. Deal?

#5 The Left only wants power.

Once this is understood and taken to heart, everything else they do becomes easier to understand.

Why do the Dems claim to care about women's rights and LBGT rights, yet love them some Islam, which is incompatible with those rights? Because the left wants only power.

Why do the Dems advocate for open borders when doing so puts the safety of us all at risk? Because the left wants only power.

Why do the college-educated left advocate for "free" stuff, when they surely understand that such policies are economically unsustainable? Because the left wants only power.

And so on. And so on.

#6 I went to the link and read the first half dozen or so paragraphs before I gave up. It seems the writer doesn't believe people should be able to talk about their personal experiences...or something to that effect. But he rambles so much and uses so many words to get to the point that I couldn't really tell. Such drivel.
