Great new website for First Amendment Rights–Thomas Jefferson Center
by jmdenison
Don't pass this one up. John Howard Wyman found this website and it is chock full of organizations such as schools, police officers, state liquor boards and politicians--all of whom stand ready and willing to muzzle up, gag up, chill and intimidate you, me and Joe and Jane Q Public--all in the perfection of a nanny state that would tell us where to go and what to do, except for the existence of that pesky First Amendment to the US constitution.
Check it out. The ARDC has loads of idiotic friends doing ridiculous things just like they do--except these folks are already the esteemed recipients of a "Muzzle Award." From college students sponsoring a "wall for free speech" that the University took offense to some scribblings and disciplined students, to police officers arresting photo journalists for merely recording protests and marches (the police told the journalist he had to have a permit to record an event, yeah, right) to the Mormons taking offense to the trademark "five wives" even though it was pointed out to the state liquor board that it would be highly unlikely for a Mormon to visit a state run liquor store or bar anyway. (Get out your majikal underwear for that one!)
Of course, you KNOW that both John Wyman and I have nominated the ARDC for a muzzle award. Lawyers blogging about corruption in the courts must be muzzled.
I hope it's not too late for the ARDC to win an award this year. And the ARDC should not be discouraged if my (Ken's) cases drag on into 2014. Apparently if your organization is truly idiotic and oppressive, you can win an award for multiple years and even a lifetime emeritus award for outstanding efforts to strenuously muzzle or gag speech that you just personally stand is available for those that "just don't get it."
Visit http://www.tjcenter.com or google "Thomas Jefferson Muzzle awards". Get a great laugh today.
Maybe it's not as good as cat videos on the internet, but it's good for a change of pace chuckle and grin and comparison to our nefarious buddies at the ARDC.
Enjoy
