[Publib] 1st Amendment Rights

[Sharon Foster]

The previous occupant of the White House had neither the knowledge or
the inclination to ask, they just went ahead and spied on us. This
White House assumes that people with email also know how to
cut'n'paste.

"If there be time to expose through discussion the falsehood and
fallacies, to avert the evil by the processes of education, the remedy
to be applied is more speech, not enforced silence." ~Supreme Court
Justice Louis Brandeis, Whitney v. California, 1927.
