A special bonus for those skeptical of calls for “reasonable regulation” of guns: Check out Rep. Linda Sanchez’s defense of her extremely broad proposal to criminalize “severe, repeated, and hostile” speech intended to cause “substantial emotional distress.” Sure enough, here’s the opening sentence of the paragraph in which she tries to explain why this is constitutional:
Current Supreme Court jurisprudence already recognizes some reasonable regulation of speech is consistent with the First Amendment.
Ah, “reasonable regulation” — who but an unreasonable person could be against such a reasonable proposal?
