        @BryanLowry3 Someone tell @justinamash "you're next." Using #1stAmendment as a weapon to silence other Americans is unAmerican as it gets.

        @DionKansas yes, the man who calls for protesters to be roughed up and free press to be curtailed is the real free speech hero. OK, Dion.

        @BryanLowry3 Not saying @realDonaldTrump is right. Saying enraged mob vs enraged mob is no way to pick our leaders. That leads to bad places

        @DionKansas agreed. But I think Amash's point was that first amendment protects both groups' right to speech.

        Replying to @BryanLowry3

        @BryanLowry3 In context of events, Amash is saying 1st Amendment protects right to go to someone else's party and pick a fight. It doesn't.
