I was replying to a post asking for examples of far-left extremism. Harassing people is never an acceptable form of free speech (actually a crime), just so you know.
- acdha 8y agoYou’re stretching the definition of harassment a lot. Sending death threats is definitely illegal. Following a random ICE agent home is likely illegal. The kind of thing Rep. Waters actually suggested, however, isn’t even remotely illegal — publicly asking high-level officials to justify their policies would be really hard to criminalize unless it was connected to other activity such as trying to detain the person. Think about what you’re saying for a moment: does anyone serious really believe that reporters following someone out the door are engaged in criminal activity?
