Offend Someone, Go To Jail?
Daily Wire reporter Zach Jewell explains the details of a bill moving through the Michigan Legislature that would criminalize certain speech under the guise of combating "hate speech". The bill, if passed into law, would allow prosectution for speech that causes someone to feel threatened or harrassed. Critics say the idea could allow liberal prosecutors to file charges subjectively when they oppose political or cultural statements.
