Surely there are a few Con-Lawyer who read this site and will chime in. Last time I read The Federalist Papers, I recall a few comments about dissent aimed at the government being necessary in a free society. Maybe I was dreaming at the time but something tells me there is a difference between a corporation suing for libel and a government suing its citizens who dissent. Did I imagine that or were the Framers and Founders kind of in to that sort of thing…calling a spade a spade?
