I can say anything I like and it will not stop you from doing anything unless you choose to change your behavior. But that is not my speech infringing that is your choice. Do you have anything better than inane questions laced with nonsensical typing?

He put me on ignore I guess he didn't like my "speech". :D

Well put. Daylen I agree with you more than not, you really should vote RP......:cool:

Please explain how it can?

In maybe some very limited circumstances but it is a very hard thing to construe "speech" as infringing on someone else's liberty.

Really? When the Brady Bunch exercise their free speech, they convince a lot of dunderheads into voting people into office who support gun control. Those people, in turn, pass anti-gun laws which infringe on our liberty, despite the fact that our Second Amendment clearly says they shall not.

Regardless, I'd much rather have free speech than controlled speech. The solution isn't controlling speech. The solution is educating people with the truth instead of rhetoric. Problem is, there are a lot of anti-gunners in education these days.

I couldn't agree with you more that speech can lead to actions that infringe but that feel speech itself does not.

Agree wholeheartedly with second paragraph. Not only is education full of anti gunners, it is full of socialist, history propaganda, and lacking in real life skills. But Hey I have done my part a little by picking up kids in the past at school on my motorcycle OCing to cheering kids. They thought it was very cool. They are right it was cool. :cool:
