Tyranny of the Mentally Ill

Because the Government really needs to arrest people for saying, “You throw like a girl.”

  3. They have no go zones filled with Mohammad’s who live and breathe insult to women everyday. Are they going to enforce that? With countries in Europe already mired in restrictions of freedom and expression how are they going to enforce an extra category of restrictions?

  8. In order to enforce such a law, maybe they can re-allocate resources from enforcement of homicide laws or from counter-terrorism resources, because protecting peoples feelings is so much more important than protecting their lives.

  10. So Trump is capable of beclowning himself now and then but, really, what’s more dangerous: toxic tweets or toxic government policy – law enforced at gunpoint?

    The Brits arrest people for mean tweets; the Canucks (under a “conservative” gov’t) hauled comedians and writers in front of tribunals for crime think; the Germans lean on internet companies to quash dissent (which used to be the highest form of patriotism – isn’t that what Hillary used to tell us?); Aussies have their lives ruined for whining about an “Aboriginals-only” computer lab.

    Don’t say it can’t happen here, either. I’m sure Mark Steyn would argue that point.

    I can’t point to anything DJT has done, policy-wise, that’s much out of the mainstream. In normal times, the “travel ban” (which was no such thing) would have been seen as most prudent and not controversial. We still don’t have a wall and we’re still mired in Bush’s and Obama’s wars-without-end.

    But Macron is willing to put people in jail for “insults”? Who gets to decide “what’s an insult?”. What’s the bar for a criminal insult? Can an insult be hurled in self-defense?

    Would “your mother wears combat boots!” be an actionable insult? What if your mother is actually in the military?

  11. Except, KCRob, there are many policy changes in every single one of the federal agencies that are being turned on their heads or obliterated. And as far as Trump beclowning himself if you don’t understand his humor then it’s best not to comment because every time he sends out a Zinger it achieves a positive result. He’s just not doing the narcissistic Obama thing of playing trumpets and patting himself on the back every time something is reversed or fixed. There are several Democrat media complex vomit outlets that are dedicated to watching his every move and informing the few leftists that can stand real info about the actual changes that are being made. And I’m not just referring to a huge raft of judicial appointments. Every single day there is a Democratic Party complained about a policy change that Trump has instituted and set in stone. Why do you think they call him a bully.

  12. Hanover – when I say “mainstream” in regards to policy, I’m saying that DJT hasn’t done anything that was outside what used to be considered normal – well within what used to be considered normal policy; not “mainstream” as in “mainstream media” or “mainstream DC politics” these days.

    Judicial appointments (and, yes, he’s done a good job there) are what presidents are supposed to do (he’s not doing anything not typical of a president). His appointments have been mainstream in that they are accomplished and not kooks.

    The point is that he hasn’t, for example, issued any executive orders putting Americans of Japanese heritage into camps or proposed any legislation that’s out of bounds. To listen to the left, he’s forced women, barefoot and pregnant, into the kitchen and burned the Reichstag.

    Some of his tweets do score some points but others, like the one singling out some b-ball player’s father (a private citizen) aren’t becoming of a head of state. I’d prefer that his energies were directed towards avoiding war with China and extracting us from the Saudi’s war on Yemen (and the rest of the godforsaken Middle East). Kissing Saudi butts is also mainstream and DJT’s certainly following in the footsteps of his predecessors.
