When Nothing is the Right Thing to Do

Patterico has the right idea in
What To Do About the Tyranny of Government Regulation of Speech.

I especially enjoyed this comment: (number 11)

Let’s start a movement to AMEND THE CONSTITUTION with an NEW AMENDMENT which protewcts ALL SPEECH very very clearly. I’d word it soemthing like this:

“The government shall make NO laws abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.”

Oh. You’re right: THAT’S THE FIRST AMENDMENT!

Nevermind… I guess we just need a SCOTUS that will ENFORCE THE CONSTITUTION! Sheesh!
