It's still free speach as far as the constitution is concerned.

But is it really?
.

Sure it is. The author is free to publish it himself if he likes. ;)

Uh, no. The 15th Footnote will cover the next screaming misconception that you'll return to this thread honking about.

Troll along. I'm not going to educate you.

Au contraire, I enjoy watching you expound on your version of the US Constitution's guarantee of "free speech".
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

Very nice dodging of the question...  I'll take it that your firm is evil opressor of free speech rights...

So you are saying that no matter what, if the customer can pay, you would a PR campaign for them? No matter how controversual or damaging it could be for your firm's image and reputation?

Right....

But this another one of your "I'm so clever" threads isnt it?

It's obvious that you know its not a free speech violation yet you go on arguing some other point of yourse and just basking in the glory of bashing this country...

Simple either you choose to go see this movie or not.

I choose to not see it simply because I really just dont like the guy.
And I want to be entertained by a film not preached to .

Depends on how much they'd pay hehe...

Reminds me of when me and my brothers went fishing. We bought some stuff to stink up the bait and attract fish. One of my brothers said "Hell I aint using that... that's cheating. I'll only use it if I have to."

Very ethical of him. :D

Anyways.....

Sure it's not a free speech violation. Nice to see you catch up to the rest of the group, Grun.

But speech = what is heard.

Thars more to it nowadays than your constitution. But go ahead... play dumb. It's what you know.

And you go on patting yourself on the back about just how clever you think you  are...


There is no issue here Nash, you're just pissed that somebody thought different than you like and decided to reject this anti-american piece of lying crap...

What's with you and this constant patting-me-on-the-back thing?

You ghey?

You think I'm pissed that someone thought different than me and decided not to release the movie? Get over your sweet self.

It's you doods who get all worked up when someone thinks different than you. Take... erhm... this movie for one example.

Like I said before. John Wayne would be rolling over in his grave at the current crop of sensitive republican cry babies.

No speech is what is said.  We are free to talk.  Others are free  to listen or not.

If a tree falls in the forest and there is no one to hear, has it's right to make a sound been infringed?  Nope.

Moore doesn't own his own film, Harvey and Bob Weinstein own the rights to the film.

Moore sold his rights to the film (originally to Disney thru Miramax) willingly for the up front production money.  Nobody forced him to sign on thhe bottom line.

Free speach is more than just the ability to talk.

For example, in China ya can talk all ya want. Just don't expect anyone to hear ya...

If we wanna get all obtuse, a dude with a ball gag and half a roll of electrician tape wound 'round his head can still eek out a few words, if only by blinking.

The matter in front of us is if the Gov can control what gets heard.

I think yes. Constitution be damned.

Disney is one example. Clear Channel is another. And it's just the start.

Holden, yer a smart guy...

In China, you speak, someone hears you - people are listening - and then you go to jail....

But you knew that.... This thread is just another opportunity for you to bash the USA....

Thats all you know how to do...
