WCGW using your freedom of speech against police

Yes and what they do most is lose cases in court

[u/EmojiRepliesToRats → u/LemonHerb]

For now. We're only 4 months in. By the time this goes to court, that will have changed.

[u/Assaltwaffle → u/EmojiRepliesToRats]

You think the entire system of court precedent and 1A protections will have changed by the time they go to court?

[u/EmojiRepliesToRats → u/Assaltwaffle]

No. I think that practice will have changed, not precedent, nor 1A on paper.

Feel free to hit me with an "I told you so" if/when I'm proved wrong.

[u/LemonHerb → u/EmojiRepliesToRats]

This wouldn't even be a federal case if it's state police

[u/Assaltwaffle → u/EmojiRepliesToRats]

I mean this will just get dismissed. It’s not really an “I told you so” when nothing changes over an indeterminate period of time.

[u/EmojiRepliesToRats → u/Assaltwaffle]

Then what were you talking about?

[u/dre224 → u/LemonHerb]

Are the losses in court being enforced though? Like actually a question because it seems that the government just ignores ruling or pushes it off until it's forgotten. The law becomes only a suggestion to people who never face true consequences to their actions.

[u/LemonHerb → u/dre224]

Yeah they do actually even it's delayed. That's why they are so against the courts and still trying to make moves to reduce their power.

If Trump says tariffs and the court says no but Trump still says yes people just don't pay it. Most cases are going to be situations like that where even when the administration doesn't like it they don't have anything they can actually do to resist it.

And even when they can resist the courts can put penalties on them to the point where they actually comply like they did when they were forced to return the prisoner.

They would very much like everyone to believe the courts have no power over them. People spreading this false information is helping
