OF THE
TIMES
"If the state could use [criminal] laws not for their intended purposes but to silence those who voice unpopular ideas, little would be left of our First Amendment liberties, and little would separate us from the tyrannies of the past or the malignant fiefdoms of our own age. The freedom to speak without risking arrest is 'one of the principal characteristics by which we distinguish a free nation.'"Tyrants don't like people who speak truth to power.
- Justice Neil Gorsuch, dissenting, Nieves v. Bartlett (2019)
