On Wednesday morning, Sheriff Troy E. Nehls of Fort Bend County, Texas, posted a picture of the back of a truck asking members of the community to help him find the ‘offender.’ “I have received numerous calls regarding the offensive display on this truck as it is often seen along FM 359. If you know who owns this truck or it is yours, I would like to discuss it with you,” he said. Nehls apparently already sought to impose punishment, adding, “Our Prosecutor has informed us she would accept Disorderly Conduct charges regarding it, but I feel we could come to an agreement regarding a modification to it.” He also posted a picture in the comments of legal code concerning disorderly conduct, apparently attempting to justify his attempt to suppress free speech by suggesting the truck driver was instigating a breach of the peace. The statute, Sec. 42.01, says “a person commits an offense if he intentionally or knowingly uses abusive, indecent, profane or vulgar language, and the language by its very utterance tends to incite an immediate breach of the peace,” or if it “makes an offensive gesture of display in a public place, and the gesture or display tends to incite an immediate breach of the peace.” Attempting to cite this statute suggests Trump supporters could be so triggered by free speech about the president they might incite violence, a particularly hilarious notion considering the right has spent months virtue signaling about the first amendment and scolding leftists for being violent snowflakes. And the Internet responded swiftly as thousands of commenters flowed in offering relentless trolling, thoughtful defenses of free speech, and cutting rebukes of partisan hypocrisy. The trolls were numerous: Other commenters were straightforward and to the point, citing previous court decisions and defenses of free speech: Still others tackled partisan hypocrisy and cognitive dissonance: Some commenters defended the sheriff and received immediate responses: A couple pointed out the fact that people actually called the police because they were so offended: The truck driver also received an offer from a lawyer and former prosecutor for free legal assistance: The ACLU of Texas also chimed in: “Sheriff Troy E. Nehls, Constitutional Law 101: You can’t ban speech just because it has ‘f@ck’ in it. “Hey truck owner, feel free to contact the ACLU of Texas.” Delivered by The Daily Sheeple

I highly doubt very much that the use of derogatory language against out President would be protected under the First Amendment as it actually falls under the fighting words doctrine. See here https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/2383 and here constitution.findlaw.com/amendment1/annotation18.htm
I think you're waaay overreacting. Yes, really. I've probably posted just as many articles as you, about how the socialists are trying to ruin our republic. Get off your soapbox when you reply to me... We can either have a decent convo and exchange opinions, or we can't. "Soapbox"?? Gimme a break.
AND the arrest, past police record and exposed sordid abuse of her bull-dyke "wife," and MAYBE the Ellen appearance and hate-fest on the Liberal-Dem Late Nite Talk Show circuit.
Lack of think skin... is a weakness. I loath weak people. Yes, you'd laugh here. In real life I'd bet your pension that it'd be a much different story. IF you or especially your wife/family were targeted with these obscenities -- either via the signage OR from car-window, your reaction would be waaay more different. UNLESS you're telling us that that at a traffic light or elsewhere that were some broad or guy to open a window and shout out, "EFF YOU, B*TCH!," that you're letting THAT go?
Exactly. Imagine the kvetching, b*tching and moaning were THAT the case. OR, 0bama was targeting with the very same "EFF 0BAMA!" vehicle signage. (btw, remember how those several folks who dug out 0bama's student loan data were summarily arrested?? When in positions of power, Dems abuse it, having a hyper-emotional hair-triggers when THEY are "insulted," investigated, busted, and ridiculed otherwise.)
It also proves that anti-Trumpers have never been known for displaying any degree of intelligence. On THIS issue we can agree. (Still staunchly supporting the ACLU, btw? Because THEY are supporting this witch.)
Pull her over and if she draws a gun, shoot her ass! Get the trash off the road. THAT is basically the face (and azz) of the Democrat Party. Ugly IN & OUT.
Great! Charge her with that. They have no case against her for exercising her First Amendment rights. What part of, public "incitement," obscenity/vulgarity/indecency/lewdness" laws don't you get? The First Amendment does NOT protect any of it.
Excellent! Why can't the Bull-Dyke's proud and public display be construed as "Encouragement of sexual assault" as well as a "Hate Crime," Hate Speech," Incitement of "sexual assault," Incitement of Violence, and a few other legit charges?
Regardless of it is is legal,illegal,or borderline,it IS a classless thing to do because that's not saying something in anger once and then leaving it alone,it is virtually shouting it at everyone who sees the truck. Well stated. If all (including kids) are compelled to see it on public roads and stores, the vulgarities/obscenities are indeed forced upon them.
Is that a political statement,or a call for sexual assault? Can you begin to imagine the screams of outrage if someone had "Fuck Hillary!" in the rear window of their truck? Whymen libbers heads would be exploding. Exactly. The double-standard and hypocrisy of the Left as well as Anarchists is again on display and exposed in this case. What I've noticed from the Dem-Antifa-Anarchist Left is that LEADING the hate, hostility, and violence is Hillary's "The Resistance" -- comprised of malcontent Queers, Dykes, and Society's Misfits and Losers. Gotta feeling the test case is only the beginning. They (and the Dems' GOPe-cousins ) are HOPING that this disgusting display becomes epidemic. Call it the "Kaepernick Phenomena." In this seemingly single inconsequential gesture, the Dem-Antifa-Anarchists are in the process of challenging laws and standards of respect and behavior that have stood the constitutional test of time. Their long End Game is clearly Divide & Conquer, and creating legal and social chaos. Antifa and Dems have always pushed the boundaries of "Fighting Words." They need their collective clocks cleaned. Backing them up AS ALWAYS is the ACLU and SPLC.
Don't forget the Constitution and the United States Supreme Court. Funny you should mention Antifa - they are the biggest enemies of free speech in America. You can however shout "Honkey" or "Cracka". Some people are more equal than others. Funny how THAT all works, ain't it? Whitey is now targeted for open Hatred, Censorship," and Employment Restrictions at colleges and universities. With NO pushback. (What's THAT all about??) This legal double standard of speech and deed (including 'Affirmative Action,' select 'Hate Speech/Hate Crime Laws' and unequal protections and license needs once and for all to go to the Supreme Court for remediation (OR be left to the States.)
She's a dead ringer for Honey Boo Boo's mom! I see Rosie O'Donnell playing her in the made for tv role. Wonder how much she can bench press? In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.
Well, the SCOTUS is a joke. Their respective hypocrisy, decisions based on international law, and political caving is making a mockery of justice AND the spirit of the USCON. Funny you should mention Antifa - they are the biggest enemies of free speech in America. Exactly. Oh, the irony.
Let's HOPE he has been lying,and he is really some bored 13 year old kid. In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.
See here https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/2383 and here constitution.findlaw.com/amendment1/annotation18.htm EXCELLENT FIND!
MOST people with outstanding warrants out on them are smart enough to not try to draw attention to themselves. The good news for her is she looks like a woman that will fit right in with a jail or prison population. In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.
Great! Charge her with that. Correct me if I'm wrong,but isn't that WHY they arrested her? The whole window sticker thing is an obscenity charge,not a felony. In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.
Get real. You can't possibly think she wants Trump to have a little fun. In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.
Wrong. Presidents and other politicians are public figures. Or are you now claiming that anyone that ever referred to the Bubba's as "Hitlery" or "Bubba" can and should be arrested? In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.
I can't speak for anyone else,but *I* don't remember it. Not that I doubt threats of arrest were made,I just didn't hear about it. In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.
THOSE are "IDs." Far different then encouraging an actual violent "act."
I can't speak for anyone else,but *I* don't remember it. Not that I doubt threats of arrest were made,I just didn't hear about it. That you can't remember it says quite a bit about the control and manipulation of the news by a colluding/bought MSM, as well as the burying of data and its aftermath. If I get a chance I'll dig up whatever remnants remain.
I disagree. That title is shared by the alleged Republican and Democratic Parties. Even Mark Twain took notice back in the 1800's that "America is safe now. Congress is in recess." When a political system is completely corrupt and working counter to their sworn oaths,WHY do we blame the people that blackmail or bribe the politicians,when it is the politicians are the ones who live where "the rubber meets the road"? In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.
The post above should have been directed to you as well as to Liberator.
In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.
Thanks,that definitely sounds like something I want to rant and rave about. In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.
I concur. BOTH Parties are now so corrupt, collusive, social anarchists and Global-Firsters that many of us have been calling for a Third Party America-First, Common Sense party. And it sez volumes that BOTH parties and leaders (like Mitch McConnell, Ryan, and certain generals and Deep State rebels) are STILL trying to undermine and oust Donald Trump.
It is taking a lot of time...This story has been buried DEEP.
"F**k Congress!" Free speech? How about "F**k Obama"? Free speech? How about "F**k Obama"? I'm down with it. (Just NOT in public, where the language would STILL be inappropriate.)
Thank you! :)
Wrong. Presidents and other politicians are public figures. Correct. They are public figures Or are you now claiming that anyone that ever referred to the Bubba's as "Hitlery" or "Bubba" can and should be arrested? No. Look up "fighting words". In law "fighting words" are not to be taken lightly. It is not just a matter of shouting "fire" in a theater that serves the purpose for this doctrine but the use of language against a President that serves to incite civil disorder and/or unrest.
I'm not "lecturing," I'm clarifying. I apparently should refrain from giving my overview and opinion on the social dynamics and psyops by the PTB (Which does appear for be a waste of time -- a YUGE one. You're right. My bad.) I accepted your 'clarifying ' comment above as an apology, --- an apology about the fact that we agree about most political issues, and so --- don't need to lecture each other... Now, a day or two later, it puzzles me why you want to reopen the issue ...
Yes. That shit don't phase me. I've been called every vile name on the planet. I've arrested enough people that were too thin skinned to ignore a constitutionally protected comment. How ignorant is that... catch a criminal charge because you're too snowflake WEAK... to tolerate a verbal comment? I'm the infidel... Allah warned you about. كافر المسلح
Yet some people STILL wonder how a outsider like Trump got elected as President over the objections of ALL the party regulars of both branches of our ruling party. He got elected because voters WANTED a outsider in the WH to start throwing a few political bombs to harm the status quo. In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.
Thanks,no hurry, In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.
"F**k Congress!" Free speech? How about "F**k Obama"? Yes,Free Speech. After all,HOW can you defame a politician? In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.
Vaguely, I tend to forget that schitt when a$$holes like that aren't bothering me anymore, too bad he hasn't been deported back to where he came from. Vegetarians eat vegetables. Beware of humanitarians!
That's been the Lefts M.O. for quite sometime now. Vegetarians eat vegetables. Beware of humanitarians!

What this proves is that this really has to be one dumb-ass woman calling so much attention to herself with an outstanding felony arrest warrant issued against her.

That MAY be protected speech,but I doubt it. There are still obscenity laws on the books in many places.
