Progressives Have the First
Amendment In Their Crosshairs:
Jerry Barrett is pleased to welcome Andrea Widburg from AmericanThinker.com to the program. In
order to maintain their grip on power, tyrants will use every tool available to them to squelch dissenting
voices. In Michigan, the looney-left—including Governor Gretchen Whitmer—have proposed a bill
that blatantly attacks the First Amendment rights of Michiganders. This bill could have enormous consequences
beyond the borders of Michigan as other Demonrat controlled states could soon follow suit. For many,
the First Amendment guarantees an American’s ability to speak out against actions or policies they
disagree with. However, if this bill is signed into law, it would be considered a hate crime if a person
causes “severe mental anguish” to another individual. Moreover, even if a defendant is acquitted
of these charges they could still face a civil lawsuit. In other words, if you voice displeasure at a man
claiming to be a woman, you could face up to five years in prison for hurting their feelings!
