Well that's a separate issue but if the protest has a permit that usually doesn't happen.

Mockingjay Part Infinity- The Solving of Xeno's Paradox!
Also, my objections aren't necessarily about what the law should be or implying that government should be involved. My comments are meant to be about what people should do regardless of the laws or government. People have an obligation as a cost of living in a civil society to tolerate speech they do not agree with,…
Treating someone like an asshole or ignoring them are totally valid responses to someone else's hateful speech. Shouting them down is not. The law does protect speech. As has been noted, defacing the ads constitute vandalism which is a crime. Most political protests receive police protection to ensure that others do…
Silencing someone else's speech with your own is not a valid exercise of free speech. If it were, the exercise of free speech would be a contest of who can shout louder.
This article presents a good discussion of the issue. Apparently the court case was in Pennsylvania, not California, but San Francisco probably thought a court case to prevent having to post the ads would be unwise.
Sure, but from what I understand, the posters did not rise to the level of any of those exceptions. In fact, from what I understand a court ordered the city of San Francisco to accept the ads.
Censorship does not necessarily mean government censorship. Private individuals can be censors also. When you silence a person's speech, you are a censor and you are abridging her freedom of speech.
Yes, it’s vandalism and that’s against the law, but operating outside the law to fight for the greater good is a major part of the whole superhero shtick, and fighting against hatred, even hatred protected by free speech, is fighting for the greater good.
No. The right of people to believe and say what they want is…
I really enjoy the show, but I will say that both season finales have seemed to me really over the top and silly, almost so much so that it's hard to call the Americans a truly great show.

Not just the drumming, which was awesome, but it also used Gustav Mahler's 9th Symphony and his song "Ich bin der Welt abhanden gekommen." Tchaikovsky's 5th Symphony and some Debussy were also on the soundtrack to beautiful effect.
It's probably not possible based on the nature of the source material, but maybe one of these days we'll see a coherent version of Dragonball.
I really liked Gettysburg. The actual battle scenes are a fairly small part of the movie so any weaknesses in the filming didn't really bother me. The movie could have used 1 or 2 fewer confederate speeches, however. I haven't seen Gods and Generals but I've heard it's a total paen to the "lost cause." Uggh.
I thought she was quoting Borat.
From Season 1 I recommend "Where No One Has Gone Before," "Datalore," "Conspiracy" and "The Neutral Zone." From season 2, you should watch "Elementary Dear Data, "The Measure Of A Man," "The Royale" (not a good episode but it's campy fun), and Q Who (probably the best of the first 2 seasons and one of the best of the …
Don't know if someone posted this already but it's pretty good. It's a parody of Juno done for Purim 7 years ago by the Y in NYC. JK Simmons reprises his role as her father.
No, it was definitely Yonkers. Watch it again, you can see the Palisades cliffs. They don't extend as far as Fishkill. Also, those abandoned factories/warehouses are in Yonkers.
Starring Neil Patrick Harris as Bart, I mean Adnan
Wait, you're serious? Simpsons Tall Tales, which features such laugh lines as "There's so much broken glass down here" is "just as good as anything they'd done before?"
I will admit to liking "Grift Of The Magi" which I will call the last good episode of the Simpsons. "I never did like that Dr. Stupid"
