        If it weren't for utterly meaningless statements these debates would be very short. Especially when they're Tulsi-free.

        No. It means something. It means arbitrary laws against free speech. See the the UK for asinine laws to curb "hate speech." 1A will come under attack via "rooting out racism."

        Wrong. It has meaning. It means we need less white people.
