Nah, its just gmta. Anyway, my point over there was that they have tried this in Canaduh, and Mark Steyn can tell you how well that is working out.

Its amazing how the left thinks these days. on one hand its: “gay marriage is in the constitution.” on the other hand, freedom of press, which you know, is in the constitution, is treated like the proverbial redheaded stepchild. Which is exactly the danger posed by activism.

In fact, it isn’t even related to the silliness at Concurring Ops. And, don’t forget that I’m in “legal academia” too. I’m casting stones from within the walls, not from the outside.

That said, I’m delighted with your summary of the seemingly orthodox line that the academics have taken — “MacKinnonite “of course we need to let people sue more widely over speech, or else women’s voices will be silenced”. Poo!
