My point from a legal standpoint is that 'fighting words' are not protected speech

Like it or not, that's been the interpretation since the founding of the US. It is not the case in some other countries, but I'm assuming we are talking about the US here. What most people miss is it only restricts the government from punishing your speech, not private entities. Insults, defamation, and lies, are absolutely allowed, but you can be found liable civilly for any damage done by this speech either through punitive damages (lawsuit settlement) or other means, deplatforming, loss of employment, etc.

threats, calls for hatred, are a bit of a gray area. It depends on the severity of the threat, but true threats can be prosecuted.

Hate speech is generally allowed, but if it is inciteful enough to be a true threat, it too can be prosecuted.

If you'd like to read up on true threats, see below:

Por que no los dos?

I feel like you could have luck at Ross and TJ Maxx. I have fairly large feet (12). I feel like every time I go in there, next to the 12's they have like a 14+ section, and sometimes they mixed in where they aren't supposed to be when I'm looking for shoes in size 12, I see a lot of like name brand and expensive looking shoes for very cheap in very large sizes which I'm guessing manufacturers and distributors just offload to them on Ross, et al because the market for those sizes is so small and those are hard to move.

True, but a liter a day seems a bit excessive for sugar intake.

Honestly, the latter is absolutely free speech. They are 100% free to say that shit if they want. They are not free however from consequences, i.e. getting hit in the mouth, fired from their job, etc.

I know, I used to work at a health food store. It was really blowing up around 2010-2015 or so, but I just don't think it's anywhere near as popular today.

I feel like the coconut water trend died out like 5-10 years ago. I never see anyone drinking it anymore.

Same

And if u work in the factory, unscrew a bolt or 2 from the robots on your way out.

"but because he doesn't understand anything."

I hate this take. He knows exactly what he's doing. Following Vlad's marching orders.

Goon holidays are the best kind of holiday

Thoughts and prayers

Gotta keep up the charade

There used to be a 50/50 mix of ex Prius drivers that drive like a Granny and ex BMW drivers that drive like assholes. Now most of the people in category 1 have gotten rid of theirs, so it's mostly assholes.

It's because one of their shit stain attorneys is facing disbarment for clearly politically motivated corrupt moves. (Shocker)

Possibly, Putin had an allegedly staged terror attack early on to drum up support

And Trump seems to be following his playbook to the T.

Lest we forget how we got here. Strikes and collective bargaining were the compromise.

I guess we'll have to call him Louie G now.

Happy this guy did this, but don't forget Roger Waters is a piece of shit and supports Russia in this war. Probably fondling Trump's balls at this very moment.
