Judge Napolitano vs. Jon Stewart on Confederate Flag and First Amendment

Judge Andrew Napolitano debates John Stewart on the Daily Show over the right of individuals to fly the Confederate flag, and whether he should run for Senate.

Napolitano, a Fox News Senior Judicial Analyst, argues that individuals have a right to fly the Confederate flag and even engage in hate speech, and tries to school Stewart on why the founders were wise enough to protect controversial speech, even if it is hatred.

“I say you have the right to fly that flag on your private property,” PPD columnist Judge Napolitano said. “You have the right to any opinion or thought you want, even one manifested or animated by hate. And the government has no business regulating thought. If the First Amendment protects anything, it protects your absolute unfettered right to think what you want and say what you think.”
