Your posts always make me smile.

Since this thread will most likely be closed soon due to our inability to refrain from insults, I thought I'd make my voice heard before it does.
RangerDick,
You make claims that you doubt anything like cages or arrests were made, then when shown the evidence, you resort to insulting the people providing the evidence. If this is what you consider constructive contributions to the politics forum, I'd highly suggest you review a few threads.
Might I direct you to this one
here, though I'd recommend ignoring the first paragraph, seeing as it is a bit out of date, while the second paragraph is quite relevant at the moment.
And
here.
Frankly, we grow a bit weary of internet bravado and the usual "I-Don't-Need-Your-Love" attitude whenever someone offers a bit of advice. However, "I Don't Need Your Love" was a fairly popular song in the 80s, if I recall, but let's try to leave it there, in the dusty record bins of antiquity and not here in the politics forum.
Now, to address the thread in question.
It is a sign of very weak character to wish to silence any dissent. Those in possession of strong character openly welcome dissent in order to strengthen their leadership and to ensure that all voices are heard. I am quite wary of any leader with such power who does not like hearing voices of dissent. To suggest that the president is likely unaware of such Free Speech Zones is naive at best.
