It is true, President Obama signed HR 347, a Bill that makes Freedom Of Speech a felony.
In all fairness, this Bill received support from both Democrats and Republicans.
We need to vote them all out of Office.
I think Our Founding Fathers are rolling over in their graves on this one.

How do I do a "freedom of speech" so I can be charged with "freedom of speech"?
I didn't think "freedom of speech" was a verb. It isn't an action. It isn't an act. Please try to explain so it makes sense.
Reminds me of how Bush prevented hand held signs he didn't like on his parade routes.
As you can tell from Larry's response, he did not watch the video. Drags up the past President, and ignores what has taken place. We will see how much Larry defends this Law, when a Republican President is in Office.
It was all quite clear Bill. Thanks.
But I would note for those of you who have such contempt for my opinions that I have commented many times that the Constitution and the law do not protect us. We were not safe in our freedom to speak before and we are not now and we will not be next month or next year.
"Also, while H.R. 347, on its own, is only of incremental importance, it could be misused as part of a larger move by the Secret Service and others to suppress lawful protest by relegating it to particular locations at a public event. These "free speech zones" are frequently used to target certain viewpoints or to keep protesters away from the cameras. Although H.R. 347 doesn't directly address free speech zones, it is part of the set of laws that make this conduct possible, and should be seen in this context."
This is from http://http://www.aclu.org/blog/free-speech/how-big-deal-hr-347-criminalizing-protest-bill
Read the bill at http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/BILLS-112hr347enr/pdf/BILLS-112hr347enr.pdf
You will find that the locations covered are:
"‘‘(1) the term ‘restricted buildings or grounds’ means any
posted, cordoned off, or otherwise restricted area—
‘‘(A) of the White House or its grounds, or the Vice
President’s official residence or its grounds;
‘‘(B) of a building or grounds where the President or
other person protected by the Secret Service is or will
be temporarily visiting; or
‘‘(C) of a building or grounds so restricted in conjunction
with an event designated as a special event of national
significance;"
So it doesn't cover all government buildings. It is far more limited that all government buildings.
I don't care where, or how limited or unlimited the zone is for free speech violations of liberty and law. If those zones are in this country, you can't have areas where free speech is banned.
Please see my quote above from the bill which specifies the areas or use jj's link to the bill itself. That does specify a limit.
the fact that you may have even taken it, is disturbing and disgusting.
i will not address anything you say, untill then.
and so you know - if you come on a post of mine, i will simply delete anything you write, when that sick picture is attached to your name.
you have been warned
Sorry peaches but the butt stays.
you DO understand basic math correct?
Harry Reid is the SENATE MAJORITY LEADER - which means (even if you do NOT look at the numbers), that the dems are in the mojority!!!!!!!!
and a fillibuster can not happen with the minority party.
want a link? here ya go "5th grade social studies"
sit and click on it all day.
The President could veto it.
oh my god - do you know a single thing about the governemnt houses?????
YES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! th3e repubs can pass anything they want in the HOUSE!@
but the dems control the senate - and nothing - absolutely not one single shred of any bill, can take on even the slightest bit of meaning, unless passed also in the SENATE ............ AND THE DEMS ONTROL THE SENATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IT IS NOT ONLY THE REPUBS THAT ARE STOPPING THINGS !!!!!!!!!!!!!

These folks really do want to change America from what it was designed to be.
This is all so wrong...
wonder where the rest are hiding - or maybe they were bad?
good post bill.
i tend to trust what the judge says at least 70% of the time, if not more.
and i would say the potential for abuse on this one is HUGE!
We will see how much these Leftists support this Bill when a Republican is elected President. They will be singing a very different tune then, huh? They will be quick to forget that it was a Democratic President that signed this into law. Thanks
