Repeal the 2nd because the media has convinced you there is no other solution?
What about the first?
I think the first has a problem too. I think we need to seriously reduce anonymous speech, while at the same time strengthening free speech protections.

How do you enforce a ban on anonymous speech? What would be the consequences for violating such a ban? Like the anti-gun position, it makes no sense whatsoever.

Who would you trust to further the erosion of constitutional rights?
then fine the company until they either comply or go out of business.

I don't see it as an erosion. I see the First as being insufficient for modern day speech. People like Snowden and Manning should be protected under the First. Agents like Russia shouldn't have access to our media (or if they do, their viewers need to know exactly who the propaganda they're listening to is coming from).

I would like to point out that OP has posted and run. I assume they will not be a part of this convo anymore than posting some bull# and not accounting for any of the rebuttals that have been brought forth, showing that this info is not only inflated to push an agenda of gun confiscation, but also to push the blame away from things like anti-depression meds and the media pushing their identity politics to divide us into neat little groups to have us bickering at eachother.

Let the government handle what speech is classified as hate and who can hear what speech?
I vaguely recall this happening before in other parts of the world and not working out so well.
