[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele]I have no idea what grounds led to the event being cancelled and, without knowing that, I don't whether the cancellation was justified. But I think it is important to know that these were not just "right-wing personalities". Chaya Raichik is the person behind LibsofTiktok and Jack Posobiec was one of the main proponents of PizzaGate. [b]Both have been linked to acts of violence.[/b] In Posobiec's case, it was just up the street from the library. I find it interesting that the Ward 2 Chair of the DC GOP apparently reserved the room for this group.

Please expand on this statement. [/quote]

Certainly you are aware of the armed attack and attempted arson at Comet Pingpong that resulted from Posobiec's PizzaGate conspiracy theories. For some background on Libsoftiktok, see this:

Both were also involved in the January 6 events at the Capitol.

these are not the kind of links that justify prior restraint under the 1st Amend. The standard is extremely high. [/quote]

For the record, Constitutional scholar Walter Sobchak has noted that the SC has roundly rejected prior restraint.[/quote]
