there is no such right

it just doesn't exist

and, when you see 'shock jocks' 'social media' 'authors with extreme views' --

it's a very good reason why it should stay that way --- there are and should be laws against certain forms of speech --

it's that simple.

There are far too many nutters among us who can string words together and fan the flames of violence and intolerance in people who are easily susceptible to such talk --

need a reference --- any form of social media - including this one.

Many people ignorant of the laws continue to refer to the Second Amendment of the USA as being the right to free speech --

they are ignorant of the fact that this ONLY refers to press being protected from Government - it goes no further than that.

There is no such thing as the right to free speech - nor, should there be. Too many hate filled idiots promoting intolerance and violence.
