Show Notes
Patrick and Bob take on the question of what limits are there to the First Amendments when it comes to obscenity or age-appropriate public assemblies. A small town in Ohio granted a permit for a Drag Time Story Hour and drag performance targeting children, arguing that the First Amendment protects the event, even in a public park. Were they right? Also, a major win for free speech as a controversial nominee to the FCC withdraws herself from consideration, and Patrick shares the story of a college prep school in AZ that has gone woke and begun the process of teaching students to censor ideas and speech with which they do not agree. Get the details on all these stories on this episode, and be sure to share it with fellow free speech warriors!
