First Amendment

Is it just me, or isn't giving Nazis a permit to demonstrate or march just like giving people permission to yell FIRE in a crowded theater?


How can anyone believe that giving Nazis such permits will be anything but an incitement to riot?

Yes, the "Nazis" are not protected by our First Amendment but the "Million More March" Black Panthers are? Hmmm...

The Nazis (National Socialist Movement, which proclaims itself America's Nazi Party) are being protected by the First Amendment. They have sought and obtained permits to march in the past. In Toledo, they relied on their FA rights to free speech and peaceful assembly. Since they chose to assemble in an area guaranteed to incite trouble.

See Planned neo-Nazi march sparks violence.

I came across http://www.anapsid.org via a google search. I'm not a "lizard person", but, I am working on a Science Fiction story based upon a world with a species of lizards as the sentient species. A friend asked me how they would speak and communicate, which led me to your article on reptile hearing. I wanted to thank you for the article -- there wasn't a lot of information online on the topic. I would have thanked you via e-mail, but, I could not find an e-mail address on the website. I imagine I will be returning to the site in the future for additional information. Thank you.
