A journalist for the NYT was attacked, her camera lens broken, and ID taken by the terrorists. They almost got her camera.

Anyone calling the people rallying terrorists is a retard at best. The media are the terrorists. Literally.

I hope you and /u/Zapped appreciate that journalists and 'freedom of the press' are the main reasons you also have the benefit of the first amendment and many other forms of freedom. Those of you who favor authoritarian governments that limit the news media should move to countries that do this. Also, read about political history.

Now you're talking out of your ass. I don't know if you're a troll or having trouble with comprehension.

He is 100% a troll. This is not the first time he makes absolutely absurd claims and pretends to not understand what has been said in order to try and spin it.

1) Thanks for indicating that I was not talking out of my ass earlier.

2) I shouldn't have to explain the importance of freedom of the press and freedom of speech. Those of you who want to attack journalists are wrong on so many levels (eg. really dumb; love sucking authoritarian assholes; don't undstand basic history and civics, want to live as slaves to the 1%; etc, etc.).
