@diet_worm @OVTweetmarck Except SCOTUS has held you can possess obscene material within the home. Applying the applicable precedents, it’s hard to see how the 7th Circuit could have come out differently in this case.

[NotPaulBearer @notpaulbearer]

@EverettRonan @CMArchibald I dunno. The two main cases the 7th Circuit relied on are pretty basic applications of modern constitutional law.

[NotPaulBearer @notpaulbearer]

@OrinKerr This cuts to the heart of a problem that just permeates our society. Bad policy is not necessarily unconstitutional, and good policy is not necessarily constitutional. People seem to have a really hard time with this.

[NotPaulBearer @notpaulbearer]

@Cernovich That would probably take a constitutional amendment.

[NotPaulBearer @notpaulbearer]

@magicmaggotmilk @LyingKJP @GaTech_Spartan @washingtonpost It comes from a case that was overruled almost 60 years ago, and there are plenty of constitutionally protected instances where you could yell fire in a crowded theater.

[NotPaulBearer @notpaulbearer]

@EverettRonan @CMArchibald How would you propose they change it?

[NotPaulBearer @notpaulbearer]

@GordonDanning @CMArchibald They address the obscenity argument in the decision, as well.

[NotPaulBearer @notpaulbearer]

@LadySlomko @CMArchibald Just takes a constitutional amendment.

[NotPaulBearer @notpaulbearer]

@LyingKJP @GaTech_Spartan @washingtonpost Nothing signals a bad First Amendment take like the ol’ “fire in a crowded theater” trope.

@swank629386 @JackPosobiec Years ago, it was a porn store.

@IgnitorKid @czabe Maybe the best soundtrack of any video game ever.

[NotPaulBearer @notpaulbearer]

@WodenWanderer @thunderhead527 I picture it sounding like this.

[NotPaulBearer @notpaulbearer]

@teknopunk_com @Jason The fact that the only three people there wearing face masks are sitting together suggests that they probably all live in the same household, and that one of them is immunocompromised.

Or they’re just afraid of their own shadows.

Probably the former; maybe the latter.

@BlueandGray1864 I’m thankful that the core of the Jamestown site is privately owned. Preservation Virginia seems to actually be proud of Jamestown, whereas the NPS exhibits seem to be mostly ashamed of it.

[NotPaulBearer @notpaulbearer]

@EquivCorgi827 @libsoftiktok That’s not a crime.

[NotPaulBearer @notpaulbearer]

@JudgeDillard I think the citations belong there. People should listen to Bryan Garner, peace be upon him.

[NotPaulBearer @notpaulbearer]

@SharkBaitoooh @libsoftiktok Every word of that is protected by the First Amendment.

[NotPaulBearer @notpaulbearer]

@NiebuhrDawn @RandPaul And the 2A had to do with muskets, but it used broader terms that sweep in more than just muskets.

So too here.

[NotPaulBearer @notpaulbearer]

@BrockOgnibene @RandPaul That approach garnered one vote out of nine.

@kderosa @SwannMarcus89 So which babies born in the United States are you saying the 14th Amendment excludes, then?
