The tears you see on my face is crocodile tears
 

Who would cry tears on this guy Alex Jones. If any tears it would be crocodile tears.

I have nothing against people who believe in conspiracy-What I'm against is when they hurt people like Alex did.

Markus

Yeah, and in preparation he has already declared his company bankrupt, and another company (also in his possession) has taken over.


And of course he hasn't learned anything, now it's the deep state that wants to silence him.
Amazingly enough there are still more than enough idiots around who believe him.

Almost a billion.


That's quite a huge amount :doh:

A Danish newspaper had an issue about this on their FB-wall and someone wrote in the comment.

This court have killed free speech. My reaction when I read it :nope:

It had nothing to do with free speech what Alex said in all his program about this school shooting.

What could be said about Alex and free speech is that he violated it.

Free speech comes with responsibility

Markus

I doubt anyone will see a single dollar.

Freedom of speech does not mean freedom from the consequences of your speech.

anything you say can and will be used against you

Freedom is being able to tell your wife that it is not the jeans that makes her butt look big


Wisdom is knowing not to do that. :up:

Just to be clear.

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

The asshat was sued for his lawful exercising of his free speech right. He wasn't arrested for saying it.

True, but me thinks this verdict skates pretty close to the edge of that "slippery slope".

How? He was mocking the parents of children who died in a school shooting.
Parents he had never met and did not know. His actions caused those parents to get death threats from his listeners.

If that isn't "the bottom of the barrel", its pretty close. :yep:

I don't see any slippery slope here at all.



No one is arresting him. No one is preventing him from saying what every he wants to say. He is just being held accountable for what he says.

Words somebody says, trigger actions, cause motivations, make people do things and form decisions.

Its like with ideology and why I strictly oppose some - namely Islam - of them: because of their motivational power and the dangeorus stuff they try to motivate for.

You are free to say what you want. He did. Now he is held accountable for what he said, due to the consequences he triggered or helped to support by his words. Because I agree with the need to confront the consequences caused and the actions that took place. I see them as a serious threat to the common good, and in the end: freedom itself. This imo justfies to hold him accountable for what he helped to support.

Alex Jones may be a nut-job, but even nut-jobs have a right to speak their minds.

This is just the "next step" for the "cancel culture" ideal, next it will become illegal (criminal) to express certain views in public (such as it is in Sweden, Germany & the U.K.).When you start censuring people for their opinions everybody looses, where do you draw the line?

Ridiculous. He can continue saying these things all he wants and continue to be sued for doing it. He was sued by pivate citizens whom he had caused damage to. No different than suing someone for slander or causing damage to your property.
