How To Qualify Free Speech

Despite claims that money or any kind of speech is free speech or that the debate over what qualifies as free speech is still open, it's easy to qualify speech by simply holding speech accountable to the rules of debate and to the rules of logic. People who fully understand Critical Thinking are the only people who should speak.

• The Critical Thinking Community.
• Logical Fallacies.
• The Fallacy Files.
• Glossary of Rhetorical Terms.
• Cooperative Argumentation.
• Roberts Rules of Order Online.
• Roberts Rules of Order Wikipedia Page.

There should be legal consequences for anyone speaking outside the parameters of these rules, not violence. What are the legal consequences of Illegitimate Speech?

• Libel as defined at Law.com.
• Slander as defined at Law.com.
• Freedom of Speech and True Threats. 
• Hate Speech Debate. (American Bar Association).

2016 Primary Recent News and Future Sources

I thought I would take a proactive approach this time and dig up some potential news sources for the Democratic Primary coming up on June 7.

Before the June 7 Primary there is Washington State, Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico, The WA Primary is apparently only aesthetic.

Here are some recent posts and potential local sources. These are long-established sources, so you should still look for social media posts by actual participants.

How News Was Spun About The Nevada Democratic Convention

You can easily tell bias when a news outlets says "Hillary Wins State X, Bernie Claims Victory in State Y" or "Bernie Wins State X, Hillary Claims Victory in State Y."

The real hardcore gas-lighting of the public can be found in direct insinuations, or even more clever tacit insinuations such as playing the victim or expressing fear from a group you just deliberately incited into a rage.

Here is a table of stark differences between fact and false propaganda.

What Happened	What The Mainstream Media Says Happened
Nevada Democratic Convention: The Videos You Need to See	Sanders issues defiant statement under pressure over ruckus
Nina Turner Tells Us What Happened at Nevada Democratic Convention	DNC head: ‘No excuse for what happened in Nevada’
Nevada Dem Party Commits Election Fraud & Files Smear Complaint Against Sanders. FIGHT BACK BERNIE	Sanders issues belligerent statement after followers threaten to kill NV party chair

Only about 17 percent show up to vote in Kentucky primary The headline was changed to say 20% at this time	It's going to stay messy
Democratic Establishment Steals Nevada Caucus Win From Bernie Sanders	Sanders under fire after Nevada convention
[ Local ] KLAS8(CBS) Las Vegas: Nevada Democratic convention abruptly ends amid security concerns	Bernie Sanders Facing Pressure Over Supporters’ Actions in Nevada
	Nevada Democrats accused Bernie Sanders’s campaign of inciting violence. And Sanders is hitting back.

Trump and Hillary News Rolls

I thought I would do a side-by-side comparison of Trump and Hillary. Most of the stories are recent, but I had to dig pretty deep to find recent stories about Hillary. Now that Cruz and Kasich are out of the race, it appears the media's last vestiges of attention to Hillary Clinton are falling away in favor of Trump.
