@Profepps, I quote your tweet in my (diagrammed) explanation of Chris Cuomo's misunderstanding of the First Amendmenthttp://bigthink.com/praxis/chris-cuomo-wont-walk-back-his-ignorant-tweet-about-hate-speech …

@Profepps Indeed - and my Venn diagram agrees with you. -
@stevenmazie 2be fair, First Amend doesn't protect "hate speech" if it's also defamatory, fraudulent, or too loud for local noise ordinance. -
@Profepps as you know, that's just to say that the 1A doesn't protect libel, fraud (or obscenity) & allows time, place & manner restrictions

@stevenmazie reminds of Texas lawyer who thought RBG asked if Texas could censor "VEGAN" on a specialty plate. In Texas that's hate speech! -
@Profepps LOL it was one of the highlights of OT 2015 oral args: Texas lawyer hearing "jihad" as "vegan" -
.
@stevenmazie alas he had my sympathies as a man of a certain age who sometimes can't understand the Notorious. -
@Profepps You ain't the only one! And of course I meant OT 2014 args, as OT 2015 hasn't quite started yet. -
@stevenmazie#SCOTUS -- usually a year behind.
