[QUOTE="dgiharris, post: 73380837, member: 322579"] Not in the same way that 2nd amendment proponents yell about the 2nd amendment. 1st amendment proponents don't take to the streets to protect your right to yell fire in a crowded theater? 1st amendment proponents don't threaten to oust politicians for making pedophilia inappropriate content illegal do they? 1st amendment proponents don't campaign on a platform that if you make snuff films illegal then it is a slippery slope to making all films illegal do they? So it is not in the same league, not even close. 2nd amendment proponents are pathological in their "don't touch my amendment" stance as compared to 1st amendment proponents. When you propose a "reasonable" infringement on any other amendment it is met with rational discourse... When you propose a "reasonable" infringement on the 2nd amendment, 2nd amendment proponents foam at the mouth in their defense using every single logical fallacy in the book, especially the slippery slope fallacy... if we applied the same logic to all of our other laws and amendments... then we'd have no laws, rules, or regulations... yet for some reason, we let 2nd amendment proponents use these ridiculous arguments and tactics... It is disingenuous to the point of being absolutely disgusting... [/QUOTE]
