“Somebody will say, ‘Oh freedom of speech, freedom of speech,’” Trump said. “These are foolish people. We have a lot of foolish people.”

Quote
“We should arrest the people that do that because they’re participating in crime,” Trump continued. “We should arrest them. Instead they say, ‘Oh no, you can’t do anything, that’s freedom of expression.’”

He also said in the past:
Quote
Trump voiced concerns in the past about free expression, including calling in December for “closing” up parts of the internet.

Ben franklin once said, that if we choose security over freedom. Well, we wouldn't have either. If you're truly a constitutional conservative how the hell can you vote for this man? Have some self respect on election day.

This man hates the first amendment! He really does want to weaken it and is a true threat to our republic.

Have some self respect on election day.

I'll have more self respect than most on this board.

I refuse to vote for either candidate.

Cherry picking out of context quotes, how regressive of you. It's really sad you have sold yourself for a few pieces of silver.

What? Is he joking again and does not actually think people who believe in freedom of expression are foolish? Explain your candidate since you feel compelled to defend him.

Anytime they crack down on printed material, any printed material, no matter what it is, that is patently unAmerican. I don't give a damn what Trump said. Context be damned.

There are college kids in this nation that, short of being able to obtain enriched uranium, have the knowledge and materials to build a nuke. Does that mean we should shut down JSTOR?

Trump is often times a know nothing ass that doesn't understand what America is, and what it means. . . .

In that regard, we might as well keep the idiot we have or take Hillary. In the famous immortal words, "what difference does it make?"

matthew are you taking deans place so he can go on vacation?......

And you think him coming out against the first amendment shouldn't be concerning and a reason to be opposed to him?

You are only getting more paranoid Matthew.

Freedom of Speech was intended to cover certain types of speech. The SCOTUS has expanded it.

I don't totally disagree with Trump on this one and anyone with half a brain will at least consider what has been discussed for decades.

This isn't unique to him.

Well, Hillary is not one of those Freedom of Speech advocates, that's for sure.

He added that “we don’t want to touch them because of freedom of speech.”

What’s chilling about Trump’s remarks isn’t his criticism of jihadi propaganda ― which is clearly awful ― but his casual dismissal of “freedom of expression” and “freedom of speech,” bedrocks of American democracy, as potentially disposable in fighting terrorism. He presented an ominous scenario on Fox News in which U.S. counterterrorism is being stymied by the First Amendment, though didn’t provide evidence to support his assertion. Meanwhile, Trump has repeatedly expressed unwavering support for the Second Amendment and against restrictions on guns.

Monday’s comments also follow actions by Trump which have already invited comparison to autocrats like Russian President Vladimir Putin and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, each of whom severely clamped down on free expression and the press in their respective countries. Over the past year, the Republican nominee has blacklisted, ejected, restricted, and mocked journalists covering his campaign and suggested libel laws should be opened up to make it easier to sue news organizations.

Trump voiced concerns in the past about free expression, including calling in December for “closing” up parts of the internet.

What's with the future tense? You're already more respectable than most people on this board, myself included.

Trump says one thing and these people hear something completely different.

I suppose they just are delusional...

I did look them up. He thinks he can do something about bomb making instructions online in other countries. He's the fool for even suggesting such an improbable thing. I was hoping you would actually tell me how you felt about letting the government try to censor things it thinks are dangerous.

Funny, I didn't see anything in the provided quotes related to printed material, where did you come up with that, they were very just generalized out of context sentences?

You don't give a shit about the Constitution, you're nothing but a fucking hypocrite.

Actually I would have no problem with them blocking Jihadist sites that are used to radicalize people here. If they are in foreign countries they have no constitutional rights.

But take a look at what your dear leader is trying to do.

A major change to Rule 41 could be passed that allows for the FBI to use malware as a “search” tool…

Malware, a malicious software, could be placed on thousands of computers with a single warrant, if Congress does not block the changes made to Rule 41 by December 1, 2016.
