New York Cities War On Free Speech 250K Fines

[OKTexas]

In NYC if you use a term contained in US law you can be fined $250,000.

Of course they warp in up in language like "with the intent to demean" and “based on a discriminatory motive", but who is the arbiter of intent and motive?

New York City has banned the term “illegal alien” when used “with intent to demean, humiliate or harass a person,” the city said.

The city’s new guidelines, announced last week, also ban discrimination against someone based on their English proficiency and threats to call immigration authorities on someone “based on a discriminatory motive.” These violations can result in fines up to $250,000.

Calling Someone an ‘Illegal Alien’ in New York City Could Result in Fine of $250,000

These commies have lost it, this would never withstand a court challenge, but it's the intimidation factor they are going for. It's as un-American as anything they've to date.

More wingnut fantasy.... so many omissions and misrepresentations in the OP... in other words, typical wingnut bubble blog fare, written by idiots, for slightly dumber idiots..

For everyone else who isn't insane:


This is a law to prevent housing and employment discrimination in public systems. NO, you can't be charged or fined for simply saying it on the street. Nor would any organization or person get a $250,000 fine without a proven, systemic problem in housing discrimination.

Based on the bullet points given, yes and no. The first and third bullet points are seriously questionable from a constitutional standpoint the second bullet point is iffy at best the way it appears to be written but may still be enforceable under certain legal conditions. If a landlord acts in such a matter there should be criminal and civil ramifications regardless of whether the tenent is an illegal or not, that's tantamount to extortion. I'm pretty sure the courts will have to work this one out.

Nothing in the article says a pattern or systemic problem is required. Nor did it limit the law to housing. Talk about making shit up. LMAO

Yep, it's not like they didn't already have anti discrimination laws, like I said, this is all about intimidation and squashing free speech.
