People should have no restrictions on their right to say anything at all, unless it will provoke "imminent lawlessness."

According to Night Strike, we already have that. The President is lawlessnessing willy-nilly.

It should be, if not already, considered illegal fraud to lie about anything concerning an official government function, as it undermines the actual government.
Besides, if we knew who will or will not be voting because of fake ballot stations or misdirection, it opens up the way for these votes to be used fraudulently.

I thought this bill would apply to politicians. I quickly looked outside to make sure everything was in proper order.
