His “landmark” argument, made in the video, is specious and insane.

It is equivalent to saying that if a criminal arsonist burns down my house and I want to rebuild then the government should step in and tell me that I can’t build anything there ever again because the fire that burned down my house was “historically significant.”

It is a ridiculous statist argument.

No, your analogy is what is lacking - totally different from Jay's point. Believe me, Jay is no way a 'statist'.

Try throwing out your broad brush.

But your only refutation of Sekulow’s argument is to say that if the arson burns your house down, you have to step back and let the neighborhood busybodies build what they think is a tribute to themselves where your house was.

Just slow down and think carefully about it—you’re the ridiculous statist.

Lovely strawman!

You apparently are logically challenged.
