Illegal protests.

Okay so since protests are an expression of opinion, and you got that pesky first amendment, all protests are legal, so this tweet is a nothing burger.

i am pretty sure every school and university will get a staff of attorneys, lawyers and judges to determine if the protest might be illegal

since there is no way a teacher can make that "decision"

The pesky first amendment only applies where VP Krasnov says it does, comrade. Rules for thee, not for he.

Which story are you talking about? The recent one about Jessica Brösche or something else?

Just read that story and was already WTF? Why isn't the German government making waves about this?

There's a lot of nuance about how you do it. You can't protest in the middle of a highway, for instance.

That or free speech is dead. Those amendments aren’t laws of nature, they need to be maintained.

So we’ll see.
