So-called “hate speech” IS specifically protected by the qst Amendment.

[Popman]

Since when does the fed gov issue permits for gatherings in cities?

The mayor wants the fed gov to stop it...

[A_Former_Democrat]

So the commies now want to define “hate speech”

That is, speech with which they disagree

[Jack Black]

Wheeler is a total idiot. Even someone only familiar with popular culture knows that the most famous free speech case in American history was about NAZIs (actual self-proclaimed NAZIs having the right to march in Skokie, Illinois.

The only generally accented limitation to free speech is that which is encouraging imminent violence or harm, the classic example being “yelling fire in a crowded theater.”

The ignorant mayor is completely wrong about American law. He’s talking about the law Tards like him would like.

....a message of hatred and bigotry....

Who gave that creep the right to define what is “hatred and bigotry”? PHOOEY!!!!

[Fiddlstix]

Typical Liberal NAZI in action......
He will be the first to call any conservative a NAZI .....

[Delta 21]

He’s the Mayor. He can pull the permits.

"They have a First Amendment right to speak, but hate speech is not protected."

Actually, it is.

[Gay State Conservative]

Hey,Teddy....show me where “hate speech” is even *mentioned* in the Constitution,let alone where it's deemed to be illegal.

[VTenigma]

How about, NO!

[kaehurowing]

The mayor needs to be arrested for making this hateful statement.

This was the WHOLE purpose of irrational “Hate Speech” “Laws” (LOL) and “PC” (censorship of ideas), both Marxist concepts to destroy Western Civilization (Christianity), which only existed because of the freedom of speech and debate and freedom of association and a Christian worldview (dignity and worth in all humans)—

ALL banned in our fascist, socialist country of today. We have a Vice system, not a “Justice” system now.

And that ban and censorship is 100% unconstitutional.

We need to reclaim our Constitution by eliminating the Federal Reserve and the “income” tax—all unconstitutional bureaucracies like the CIA and NSA and Dept of Education (our masters) which steal our money to control us and brainwash our children into imbecility and dependency, and censor and warp our ideas and traditions we transmit to our children. We really need to TAKE BACK our freedom-—our Natural Rights ONLY from God not the State—and the State can’t censor us or take away our freedom of speech.

"My concern is they're coming here to peddle a message of hatred and bigotry," Wheeler said in a news conference Monday. "They have a First Amendment right to speak, but hate speech is not protected."

Said the Constitution/Freedom hating bigot....
