Freedom of speech, not freedom from the consequences of said speech. It’s explicitly illegal to do what this smoothbrain did.
He wasn’t killed for saying anything. Sounds like this mouthbreather decided to suicide by cop when they confronted him. I’m no fan of cops, but FAFO in this case
What law did he break? Please cite it.
Also if the consequences of “free speech” is being summarily executed or jailed, that isn’t really free speech is it? Do i have the freedom to rob a bank, but not the freedom from the consequences of robbing the bank?
