Good luck stopping college kids from protesting. I eagerly await the lawsuit that comes out of him trying.

What's an illegal protest? I thought first amendment speech covered that

Also, how can he expel a student from a school he doesn't control? or does he mean expel students from the country?

He doesn’t give a shit about the speech. It’s the schools and universities he wants to harm. Even if it’s just a matter of disrupting them through legal overwhelm.

An illegal protest, according to conservatives, is any protest they disagree with. Waving picket signs or blocking traffic is disruptive, destructive, and illegal. Storming the capitol is, on the other hand, a perfectly acceptable peaceful protest.

Yep. Nationwide nonviolent sit in protests? Pass laws to make it legal to run them down on a car if you feel threatened.

Violent storming of the seat of our nations power and symbolic political heart? Oh that's just some guys being dudes.

Straight out of the dictators handbook.

Wait, are you joking or is that real?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 23 minutes ago

Christ, you had to ask. We really do live in interesting time.

My apologies, its not real that i know of. But god damn it seems like the next step doesnt it?

Cheers mate

Let the record reflect that, while this has not yet occurred, the fact that you have to ask is concerning enough to warrant treatment as if it has occurred. Furthermore, college campuses are one of the primary places that protest movements begin in recent years. Declaring protest illegal in nebulous terms like this is a HUGE swing toward breaking open the full fascism piñata.

Remember, he’s only got the intelligence of a kumquat. He doesn’t even understand that he’s too stupid to understand anything. He vomits whatever he thinks give his followers happy endings.

Apparantly, (in the US) any protest that needs to occupy the road requires a permit. Yea imagine how stupid it is, you want to protest the government and you need to apply for permission?!? I was shocked when my teacher told me about this. Seems like a huge First Amendment violation to me, but society just goes along with it. 😓

So unless your protest is strictly on the sidewalk, you need a permit. So fucking dumb.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 3 hours ago

You don’t need a permit to march in the streets or on sidewalks, as long as marchers don’t obstruct car or pedestrian traffic. And that makes a lot of sense because if you block a road perhaps emergency services need to know ahead of time that they can't take that route. Or others concerns may be relevant. For the very same reasons this is similar in countries around the world. Source: https://www.aclu.org/know-your-rights/protesters-rights

Technically it's the same in France. I'll let you figure how much that stops anyone...

Now apply that law retroactively to catch all women's March supporters cuz fuck women right? And then all the other civil rights matches before women's. They're gonna catch me for protesting migrants Rights during prop 187?? Back in 1998? Those were the days...just the government trying to fuck up the world slowly with room for lube. Trump is power tool going full send after everyone's rights. WTF get the guy out already!!!!
