NEW YORK – President Obama's nominee for the Supreme Court, Elena Kagan, argued certain forms of speech that promote "racial or gender inequality" could be "disappeared."

In her few academic papers, Kagan evidences strong beliefs for court intervention in speech, going so far as to posit First Amendment speech should be weighed against "societal costs.”

My guess would be anyone recommended by Obama.

Can you imagine the shrill screeching from those three? There is nothing worse in this world than a rabid, radical, screeching militant feminist...nothing!

Down the "memory hole" à la 1984.

Countries that disappear speech, disappear people.

But its all OK, as long as its in the holy name of Social Justice!

Social Justice WILL be the thing that ultimately starts the next American Civil War. To a Socialist Marxist, all other things are subservient this their God...their Deity.

Living Constitution means that words mean anything that liberals want them to. No = yes, forbidden = allowed, may not = may.

What part of "no" do these idiots not understand, as in "Congress shall make no law ... abridging the freedom of speech...."??

It’s a short ride from “disappearing” speech to people being “vaporized”.

Our judicial system is one big joke.

It matches the usurping fraud in the executive branch and the politburo legislative branch. It all works so well with the treasonous Fifth Column MSM.

She knows the Commies' secret handshake, apparently.

Anyone (suppposedly Princeton and Harvard educated) who would use the euphemism “disappeared” in formal speech to refer to doing away with the basic social contract under which we live, should, by virtue of that fact alone, be disqualified from consideration for a seat on the Supreme Court.

..... or any other court for that matter.

Socialism always fails, always. Too bad the innocent have to suffer these fools.
