you're just making conjecture about how the US denies people free speech.

[-] UFO64@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago

I’m citing it happens, something you yourself have agreed with.

[-] dmmeyournudes@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

i never agreed that they jail people for exercising free speech. that's not how this works.

[-] UFO64@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago

Are you claiming no appeals court had ever ruled someone was exercising free speech after a lower court jailed them? Lol

[-] dmmeyournudes@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

you're using the world jailed to mean arrested or charged, that's now what we are talking about. anyone can be put in jail for no reason for 24 hours. that doesn't mean much.

[-] UFO64@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

You can be sentenced and appeal from jail stranger. You don’t just sit free if you have an appeal. It’s extremely situational.

[-] dmmeyournudes@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

yes, that's the point of the system.

[-] UFO64@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago

Which again, read the origional post stranger lol

[-] dmmeyournudes@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

really productive "the courts exist", great addition the conversation.

[-] UFO64@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago

Says the person jumping in to agree aggressively

[-] dmmeyournudes@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

you're not contributing, you're acting like the courts make the entire thing invalid.

[-] UFO64@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago

No, I am demonstrating that the argument doesn’t hold water on even first order inspection. And you seem to be upset that you don’t understand that.

Kindly stop wasting my time and go away.
