    ...“There is this movement on the left to just silence people. And it is — and people say ‘what about conservatives?’ Conservatives don’t have the cultural power in academia or media to silence anybody, even if they wanted to, and liberals do. And we saw in this situation, where what happened with this [Memories] Pizzeria owner is, they didn’t discriminate against anybody, they expressed a view that a group of people don’t like. And it happens not to be my view, I don’t agree with them, but they have a right to express that view” she stated.

    Host Sean Hannity added, “I don’t like even Bill Maher, Bill Maher’s good for America, you know why? Cause he says everything he wants, and that’s healthy.”

    Fellow Fox News Contributor and author Tammy Bruce added, “this isn’t new. We’ve seen this trajectory for a period of time, and what’s been shocking over the last week, that’s become quite clear, is the moving from a civil rights agenda, which was live, let live, let us live our lives, as we see fit, moving into a totalitarianism, which is…punishing people who disagree with you. And so, when we’ve seen this move, I think that it’s kind of natural, we’ve seen this from the left around the world go from liberalism to fascism,

    Question Israel's policies and the "right" just tries to silence you. "Shut up Jew Hater!".

    Question Washington's un constitutional foreign "regime change" policy and the "right" just tries to silence you "shut up conspiracy theorist!" Or "shut up liberal" Or "shut up you un American military hater!"

    Give us a break from the hypocrisy already Rev the "right" is just as guilty as the "left" when it comes to trying to silence their critics by using dishonest tactics.

    Usually it's liberals who are more skeptical of Israel and conservatives who more so defend them. After all they are surrounded by people wanting to kill them all. I think ore defending then skepticism is needed, especially since biblically, there Gods chosen people. Only America is left with being an ally and under liberal Obama, it took a huge hit over and over again

    Didn't just start. It's been going on for years. But it is intensifying.

    The left hates free speech. We've seen that right here.

    Unfortunately some people who consider themselves "conservatives" are buying into that program.

    We've also seen that here.

    It's coming from the Democrats and the left. It is the Democrats who like to call names.
