TOTALITARIANISM IS HERE.

“ there can be no doubt you were inciting others to violence” What?! Yes, there can be doubt. A whole lot of doubt that that’s not what the person intended. You could act like a human and say maybe the person meant with the words they spoke actually were—that they didn’t want their tax money to be wasted. A totally valid concern. This is why the law is almost always based on action, not intention. Intention is very hard to prove, and impossible to prove absolutely.

All possible intentions aside. What people say changes on a whim sometimes. People get angry. People get frustrated. Sometimes they just need to let it out. And when they do sometimes just hearing what they’re saying, brings them back down to earth and calm them down.

We all know that punishing people with years in prison over words and opinions is ridiculous. What makes this all make sense is if they are seriously just looking for a way to incriminate anyone they want.
