YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The Supreme Court just essentially legalized stalking by prioritizing free speech over a victim's abuse, with only Justices Amy Coney Barrett and Clarence Thomas dissenting from majority ruling. Francesca Fiorentini and Brett Erlich break it down on The Damage Report.

The Supreme Court Just Legalized Stalking

"The Supreme Court majority describes its holding last week in Counterman v. Colorado as a vindication of the First Amendment and a principled defense of free speech. Indeed, influential civil libertarian organizations were quick to celebrate the decision. ACLU attorney Brian Hauss praised the court for guaranteeing that “inadvertently threatening speech cannot be criminalized” and for “provid[ing] essential breathing room for public debate.” Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE) attorney Jay Diaz rejoiced that “fewer prosecutors will be able to criminalize speech tomorrow than was possible yesterday” and praised the majority for “ensur[ing] that Americans would not face prosecution for parody or political commentary.”

Based on these characterizations, one could be forgiven for thinking that the Counterman case involved controversial political advocacy, an ambiguous offhand remark, or uncivil name-calling. In fact, however, the case is about a relentless, six-year stalking campaign by a man determined to insert himself into a woman’s life without her consent."
