   Ha, Ha, Ha! That’s a good one. Fortunately, there’s a whole other set of laws to protect us from that especially since the Supremes ruled a long time ago that those types of actions are not protected free speech.

   I know, I’m just going with the flow. I do still like reading them and I never miss a Calvin and Hobbes either.

   But it does mean the venue has a right to allow such speech. The fact that faculty, students and attendees gave such a standing ovation says a lot about their views. People should remember that despite what you stated above about representing the faith, what he spoke actually is the practical but not stated Catholic policy and that the response the college gave is probably just a reaction to all of the blowback they have received. The Church claims neutrality but is active in effecting politics to their own ends. Those policies of the Catholic Church are the primary reason so many Americans have left it. Well, that and all the pedophilia and the cover-ups of it that enraged people like me who could no longer tolerate such behavior in the Church. Their plans to place as many people of faith as possible within the body politic rivals that of the Southern Baptists as well and should scare all free peoples. This is how Roe v Wade was overturned. It should also be noted that the vast majority of colleges require speakers to submit a copy of their speech for approval before they give it. I have had to do this as well.

   I agree.

   Perhaps but sadly probably not. I have known a few women who have married into such a marriage and am still surprised how many were willing participants in such a misogynistic relationship. Two of them were feminists in college with me. Yeah, I don’t get it.

   The women in attendance stood up and applauded and this wouldn’t have been a thing if the press had stayed out of it like they typically do when hateful preachers spew their poison to their own flocks. It only became an issue because it was said by a KC Chief’s kicker. As I indicated however, I certainly do not agree with the putrid words out of his mouth but if we are to expect freedoms in speech for ourselves then we should also give it until it encroaches on our own freedoms and rights.

   He should have already upgraded to the digital TV. No tubes to replace.

   While I abhor the misogynistic tripe he spewed at the commencement, I also think we should respect his right to do so. He was invited to speak at a Catholic college to people of his own faith who gave him a standing ovation. In other words, his people. I’ll push back when or if he tries to push that crap on me or mine and anyone else who is offended by Theocratic Nazis.

   Because of this the police don’t typically arrest anyone as long as they are peaceful, protesting on public property like sidewalks and compliant to requests to leave as is what happened at both protests at Alito’s house: “However, whether specific protests are considered illegal depends on a court’s interpretation. Legal experts generally agree that targeted, stationary protests directly in front of a justice’s home fall under this prohibition, but interpreting the law too broadly could infringe upon First Amendment rights to peaceably assemble1. So, while it’s not automatically illegal, it’s essential to consider the context and intent of the protest.” In other words, not destroying property or attacking judges and police like republican terrorists are wont to do.

    On a somewhat related note: Rudy Giuliani has now been served with Arizona indictments at his own 80th birthday party. All of his social media taunting and hiding was for naught.
