I’m not sure Penn actually called for the repeal of the first amendment. It certainly doesn’t protect libel or slander, which is basically what Penn is talking about.

So Chavez is neither a dictator or tyrant?

Please explain how any American calling him one would be libel or slander and why they should be held to account for calling a foreigner some names?

Why should our freedom of speech be affected because we called some tinpot, socialist POS, fruitsalad wearing, commie bastard a dictator?
