Exercizing political expression?

[Wildcard Ky]

Some guy in Florida drove his car onto the sidewalk in an attempt to "scare" Katherine Harris and her supporters gathered at a rally. No one was injured, but he is charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

He says that he was merely exercising his political expression by driving his car onto the sidewalk towards the crowd.

Regardless of where you stand politically, this is insane. I hope they throw the book at this idiot.

i would hope he spends some time considering his political expression in prison. Preferable with his cell mate excecising some political expresionism of his own on this guy's noggin.

That reminds me of when Squeaky Fromme tried to shoot Pres. Ford but her gun didn't go off because it had been improperly loaded. She claimed she was expressing her opinion but the jury didn't believe her and convicted her of attempted assassination of the president. I completely agree with them.

And the opinion expressed is:

Idiots like that have the same right to vote that you do and it's equal weight.

Well, until they do something like that at least.

Thus, we should convince all idiots to do something like that.

If we're lucky we'll eliminate both idiots and politicians.

The anarchy that follows will be painful at first, but like anal sex, we may enjoy it in the end...

That or "stiffen up" and become a totalitarian regime.

One of the two.
