These must be the only extremely urban areas that Trump won
The thing hasidics is that they don't believe in an Jewish state, but trump on the other hand believes in a Jewish state. This is completely on off relationship between hasidics and trump on thier position of Israel.

It's seems like a left over right issue.
They immediately labeled him a trump supporter .

I can say speak Greek. You may not likel it. Move on.
You can say what you like, but that does not mean others had have to put up with it. He was kicked out of his office and maybe disbarred because of this.

And if he can voice his opinion, others can voice their opinions. They basically voice their opinions, effectively shut down his business after which his landlord kicked him out, and his may not get disbarred.

The constitution does not protect private citizens from private actions as a result of their freedom of speech.

Except if you're a fat monster from Fresno State preaching hate from the liberal standpoint. Then it's okay to wish death upon people and put a mental health crisis line of another university as your phone number and goad people into calling.

Oh stop it with the holier-than-thou attitude. He wasn't politically correct. That doesn't make his opinion invalid.

It really doesn't matter if your opinion is VALID or NOT.

There are consequences to SPEECH, period.

People can refuse to hire you or do business with your based on your reputation. A lawyer who has random outbursts on strangers in the restaurant shows his unfitness to practice law, and other attorneys are saying this finishes him in the profession and they were even surprised he bothered to show up to court.

One of his current clients wouldn't say whether he would continue to retain him. Probably not.

The man's life is destroyed, and he destroyed it by dumping his politics on random strangers.

But being that he had no proof this women were on welfare, and that there is no law against speaking other languages in the US, and even if they were on welfare it is none of his business as an absolute stranger to him, this man was a complete fool for saying this.

Ok ok ok... You're just saying the same over and over again. You've made your point. I don't understand why you keep repeating the same thing.
