No. Not at all. I was responding to someone who was saying that "One limit on the First Amendment would beckon another", and was suggesting that gag orders were unconstitutional because of that.
I was pointing out that there were ALREADY limits on freedom of speech. And I listed some of those limitations.
I think the issue is that my comment got lost in the thread, and it's not readily apparent who/what I was responding to.
I should have quoted him in my response, just so no one would have been confused.
Yes, in middle school. WE sure did.
It makes me a little concerned you are inferring Trump is committing one of those offenses for which they would need a gag order.
I'm guessing (hope) you didn't mean to, but I'm not sure why you seem to be so open to this seeing as he is only speaking truths.
Someone getting hit with a gag order for speaking truth should not be allowed.

Just because something is done doesn't make it any less unconstitutional.
Gun control exists and is used in the U.S.; it doesn't make it suddenly Constitutional.
The Supreme Court has upheld those gun control laws, though. And the Supreme Court is who decides what is unconstitutional.
I don't agree with them, but I don't get to decide things like that. Which makes it important who gets to elect SC judges.
Just like I didn't agree with Roe vs Wade. But during the past 50 years, it was constitutional. Now it's not.
Until the laws change, gag orders are not unconstitutional as a whole.
The Supreme Court has actually struck down most gun control laws, and others take time and pressure to even reach SCOTUS.
You know, I'm starting to believe you do.
