I'm very concerned about the integrity of the 1st Amendment and the right to free speech in the wake of Kirk's death. The Trump administration is way out of line in their hypocritical threats to censor or silence media entities.

"If the American ideal of freedom means anything, it is that Americans can engage in an extremely wide range of political speech, including the tasteless and the offensive." - NYT Editorial Board.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak outβ€”
Because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak outβ€”
Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for meβ€”and there was no one left to speak for me." (2/2)

Replace the proper nouns and you have current events. When you take away the rights of one group, you take away the rights of everyone.
