Biden judicial pick suggested criminalizing speech against ‘oppressed groups’

President Biden’s latest nominee for the federal appeals court that oversees New York and Connecticut has suggested criminalizing speech against “oppressed groups” and led trainings that taught law school graduates about how “microaggressions” can “kill you.”

Maria Araujo Kahn, 58, an associate justice on Connecticut’s Supreme Court since 2017, could be confirmed by the Senate as soon as next week to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals, which takes cases from two-thirds of the tri-state area as well as Vermont.

In a 2020 opinion first reported by the Washington Free Beacon, Kahn joined with her Connecticut colleagues in upholding the breach of peace conviction of a white man who used a racial slur toward a black parking attendant who gave him a ticket.

Meditating on the so-called “fighting words” exception to the First Amendment — which applies to speech deemed likely to provoke violence — Kahn wrote: “The ultimate inquiry of the fighting words exception is whether a speaker’s words would reasonably result in a violent reaction by its intended recipient.”

That should be a hard "no" on her nomination.

Whites in this Country are being oppressed, just like the Kurds were the biggest group, so the other groups ganged up on them and continue to oppress them until this day.  Its not just small groups that are oppressed, pack wolves and are are often the worst, and they bring down far bigger prey.  Whites in America are much oppressed, murdered, raped and murdered, the democrat press covers most of it up.

Whites are now accused of being racist to demand some real equality, but the woke treat t them like last centuries dirty Jews is just fine. Socialist love playing accusing race games pretending doing such is a virtue, by simply changing the skin color they want to increase their woke abuses with false virtue sending/posturing.
The lock stepping with false accusations as wicked this century AS LAST.
