When the "Shield of Free Speech" ............ is Abused

Dear Mr. Zender,
Normally, I don't respond to clowns like you. But in this case, I will gladly make an exception. Free speech is a beautiful thing. Many have given their lives protecting it. When cowards like your clown friend Anthony Murillo hide behind the shield of "Free Speech" to make death threats towards two young rape victims, and actually names them and threatens to shoot them in the head......that just defines who they are....."COWARDS". Your comment defines who you are. If this had happened to your loved one, you would be spewing a different tune.....guaranteed. The courage and dignity these two young ladies displayed throughout this entire ordeal is nothing less than phenomenal. Your talentless clown friend "Anthony Murillo" will NEVER threaten to kill anyone in his putrid lyrics again. Guaranteed. Even though he will never admit it, the judicial process was effective in educating him with the simple fact that.....when you threaten to kill someone, sometimes hiding behind "Free Speech" may not protect you. We call that a "Teachable Moment." Obviously, you missed the whole point of the lesson. Your day in school may come sooner than you think.
Best Regards,

7 年Well stated Luis A. Bola?os. Unfortunately, some people will never get it. They will never understand what the constitution means by free speech. Nor will they understand the difference between morality and the law. Like the mother of the untalented Murillo said with a smile, "we are so proud of him. Maybe it was morally wrong, but not legally, so we knew he would get off." As a parent I would be appalled if my child did something immoral. I would NOT be proud of what they had done. I hope Murillo learned his lesson. I have my doubts but time will tell. Thank you for attempting to point out to Mr. Zender the difference. But like I said, some people will never understand what the constitution meant by free speech. Nor will they ever understand morality.
