To hell in a handbasket:
HandbasketAaron Walker (aka Worthing) was arrested today in a Maryland
courtroom. Several days ago, convicted bomber and perjurer Brett Kimberlin
had obtained a “peace order” against Walker, and today Walker was arrested
for violating the order. My information is that the judge claimed that
Walker violated the provision against electronic communication with
Kimberlin, because Aaron blogged about Kimberlin — thus “inciting” others
to contact Kimberlin.
In other words, as best as I can tell, Aaron Walker was arrested today
in the United States of America for blogging about a public figure.
…
This is, I had thought, the United States of America. I thought we had
freedom of speech here.
It will take a few days to nail down with precision what happened. But
if the account I have given here turns out to be correct — if the basis of
the arrest today was that Aaron incited others by blogging about a public
figure — I want all lovers of the First Amendment to stand tall and ride to
Aaron’s defense.
There’s much, much more at the link and it all needs to be read and
inwardly digested.
We’re at a crossroads. |
