You claimed Obama had "maybe" committed treasonous acts. I countered with yes, technically, and so has every other president using your criteria of a constitutional breach. You countered with yeah, but some constitutional breeaches are worse than others while deriding the "bullshit of moral equivalency" and there are degrees to breaking the law. I'm now countering with yes, there are degrees to breaking the law, but the law is broken regardless....which supports my claim that using your criteria of constitutional breach as a basis to claim treason has been commtted by a President, then all Presidents could be considered treasonous at some point in their administration. Have you thought of your point beyond "Obama is worse than Bush was by a few degrees"?
BTW, freedom of assembly has absolutely nothing to do with yelling "fire" in a crowded theater...one is meant to address grievances with a governing body (freedom of assembly) while the other serves no purpose other than to create chaos (limits of free speech addressed in Schenck v US)...but would probably be allowed if the government issued a permit allowing it....
1. I take most of your points.
2. Freedom of assembly DOES pertain too the gay-bashers at military funerals.
3. DAMM I'm glad I said "maybe," otherwise I would have very little wriggle room.
not done yet, though...
Didn't think you were... ..but you're doing well and I'm having fun with the debate...
