What planet have you been living on lately?

It is still a violation of free speech.

There are also property rights. Would you like it if I decorate your home with nooses?

but you can't hang Nancy Pelosi in effigy.

You can hang Pelosi's effigy on your property for all to see.

However I would agree with you about the question whether it pertains also to demonstrations... but doing it on other properties (i.e. your neighbours lawn) is violating his property rights.

There are already laws against trespassing.

This law is aimed not at stopping trespassing, but in squelching free speech.

And there are a lot of things that I don't like, but I don't have the right to outlaw everything I don't like. In a free society we have to put up with things we don't like, like smokers and people who smell bad and people who talk to themselves on street corners. It is fascists like the California Legislature that infringe on liberty by outlawing smoking and wearing perfume or driving without a seatbelt or riding a motorcycle without a helmet.

Our Liberties are being eroded one at a time and people like you cheer on the facists because YOU might not like it if someone actually practiced liberty near you and made you uncomfortable.

What the hell has happened to this forum that we as freepers don't recognize TYRANNY when it rears it's ugly head.

Wake UP! Your Liberty is being stolen from you. That liberty that your forefathers died to give you is being robbed from under your nose!
