Common sense thought control - Don Surber

"...I thought about that Kookie song as I read the New York Post story, “MSNBC legal analyst (Barbara McQuade, a University of Michigan law professor) says First Amendment makes U.S. ‘vulnerable,’ calls for ‘common sense’ speech restrictions.”...
McQuade is not interested in stopping those lies by the government. 

No, no, no. 

• She is interested in silencing those of us who tell such truths as Obama had the FBI spy on Donald Trump and covered it up with a whacky tale of Putin being in cahoots with The Donald.
• But for that darned Constitution, it would be easy for fascists like her to shut us up. She is unhappy with that situation.

She said, “Of course, the Supreme Court has held that all fundamental rights, even the right to free speech, can be limited as long as there is a compelling governmental interest and the restriction is narrowly tailored to achieve that interest. But I think any time someone tries to do anything that might limit free speech, people claim censorship.”
How dare they claim censorship is censorship.

Her best line was “We need to have a conversation and common-sense solutions to these things. Instead, we throw out terms like censorship, call each other names, use labels and retreat to our opposite sides. We need to be pragmatic and come up with real solutions.”...
