Typical libertarian intellectually dishonest drivel

Nice insult.

No laws were enacted or executed against the reporters or Rahm, so there were no First Amendment violations.

I know this fact, but that is why I said I would not go into further detailed discussions that would possible complicate the piece. Most people consider the First Amendment to give the American public certain rights, which I listed the rights that are commonly derived from the First Amendment by the general public. I was arguing from that point of view.

The post she wrote wasn’t primarily about the First Amendment; it was about there being no rights violations. I did not want to complicate the short response I gave by proving the First Amendment only restricts what the Federal Government can do. Additionally, for convenience sake I did not wish to prove the existence of negative rights then demonstrate there were rights violations. It would have taken longer to write a response including all those topics rather than start from a point which many, if not most, Americans believe to be correct.
