That's the same law shit for brains. Jesus Christ you are stupid.
No, I didn't watch the video, I don't need some douchebag on FOX News to tell me what to think. I actually looked the law up and found out it that it was sponsored by a Republican and passed 388-3 in the House. I also found out it imposes no new criminal penalties whatsoever and is only an amendment to a law that's been on the books since
1971, signed by Nixon.
Great. Which part makes it a felony to exercise free speech?
This bill is an amendment to Section 1752 of title 18, United States Code annotated.
Yep. It was also passed with only 3 dissenting votes in the House and none in the Senate. So even if Obama has vetoed it, its very unlikely it would not have passed over his veto, considering nearly 100% of both parties were in favor of it. And if Obama had vetoed it FOX Opinions would have whined like whiny bitches about how he was wasting our time by vetoing a law that was passed nearly unanimously.
It is only two pages......so even you might be able to retain enough attention span to focus.
(2) a fine under this title or imprisonment for not more
than one year, or both, in any other case.
(c) In this section
(1) the term restricted buildings or grounds means any
posted, cordoned off, or otherwise restricted area
(A) of the White House or its grounds, or the Vice
Presidents official residence or its grounds;
(B) of a building or grounds where the President or
other person protected by the Secret Service is or will
be temporarily visiting; or
(C) of a building or grounds so restricted in conjunction
with an event designated as a special event of national
significance; and
(2) the term other person protected by the Secret Service
means any person whom the United States Secret Service is
authorized to protect under section 3056 of this title or by
Presidential memorandum, when such person has not declined
such protection..
And which part of it makes free speech a felony?
Sorry, but does "free speech" mean I can enter the White House whenever I damn well please it?
Regardless who passed it......it seems to be a consensus that the Secret Service is authorized to protect the president or "other persons" under section 3056 of this title or by Presidential memorandum, and we have a no freedom of speech zone wherever the they are. It has been spelled out as a felony worthy of imprisonment simply to protest in these areas, unless the president, or "other person", declines that protection.
