I hate free speech zones. Especially on college campuses.
Then again we have more free speech than any other country so...yeah.

Interesting, are you going to argue we don't have more free speech than other countries? I'm honestly not interested in hunting down examples right now, first I'd ask you which country you think has more free speech than us. We can continue from there once you answer.

Bush may have started the "Free Speech Zones", but it looks like the DNC helped lay the groundwork to let it happen.

I'm not arguing anything. You're the one who made a claim. You're the one with the burden of proof. And untill you meet that burden of proof, I'm going to ask ou to fufill it.
Please back up your claim that America has more free speech than every single other country on the planet. If you can't back that claim up, then don't make it.
I wanna see if it's worth trying to prove. Do you believe any other country grants citizens more free speech rights than the USA? Yes or no, and if yes, name the country.
It's not worth it to me if you're ignorant enough to say some other country has more free speech, sorry bro.

I think you mean both the dnc and rnc laid the groundwork.
So since you want to make this a party judgement, that means:
-> both parties set a precedent
-> the Republican party's administration took the precedent further.
The truth of it is, I tend to hold Democrats to a much higher standard then Republicans.

This isn't just open to Rocky, I call upon anyone who wants to argue another country grants more free speech rights. Any takers? Do not be shy.

That's not how it works, sporto. You made the absolute claim of: "Then again we have more free speech than any other country so...yeah." which started this.
It's for you to prove that after Rocky asked you to support it.
Personally I don't know, maybe you're correct, but I'm also not making the claim as fact.
edit: Never mind, DDM bailed you out and did the footwork, you should thank him again.
I didn't bail him out. We are notorious for not having the best freedom of speech, in enforcement.
Constitutionally, we are probably the best. But we play it loose with those rules and free speech is oppressed all the time in the US. Just not as bad as Canada or Australia, for example.
Still among the most free speech zones in the world, yes, but not the best.
What I posted somewhat supports Surts' point. But it also proves him directly wrong about being the bestest free speech haven - not true.
Yeah: no. That's not how it works anymore. Too many times have I done the digging on here only for it to just to be dismissed or spun. So if I decide I want to know someone's belief on a topic before I get into it with them? That is just what I'll do. If you don't like that or you do not find it fair? Irrelevant.
Oh enforcement? Sure, but I was thinking more about our constitution, etc.

Constitutionally, the American Civil Rights Act is a violation of the first amendment and anything like it. There's lots of laws and rulings that violates the first amendment rights in the US. That's part of why we don't have true freedom of speech in the US.
The fact the cake bake homophobe's case even went anywhere before being dismissed is proof of lack of power the first amendment should have in the US.
Free SPeech Zones, the confiscation of property and forced relocation of those who smoke weed, private prisions(again imprisonment is a restriction of someone's freedom), bail system, presidents threatining the press with legal power, the goverment paying for pro military propoganda and patriotism, the unjustified restrictions of rights for ex criminals, the restrictions regarding third party candidates, higher minimum ages for youth, and so much more are a suffecient to make the case that america isn't the most free planet. You can likely also make the case it is, but it's certanly up for discussion even though the dmb's and surts get triggered when people challenge their make believe fantasies of the world.

I'm open about my criticisms of civil asset forfeiture, private prisons (obviously I'm not against the existence of prisons, but I don't support something that generates a lobby in favor of advocating that more people be in jail for their profit), and weed criminalization.
That's largely why Trump's appointment of Jeff Sessions was in my top 5 least favorite actions of his presidency and why I was ecstatic when Sessions resigned
