The broad new crimes created in this bill — groping or pretending to grope someone’s behind — become problematic when you consider children don’t necessarily need to be present, King explained. The U.S. Constitution protects free speech and expression. But not all speech can be exercised absolutely freely. Think shouting “fire” in a crowded theater. When the government wants to restrict speech, it matters whether the law is based on the content of someone’s expression or “content neutral,” meaning it could apply to anyone regardless of what they’re saying or doing.

Mexico migrant camp tents torched across border from TexasMexico migrant camp tents torched across border from TexasWitnesses say makeshift tents were deliberately set ablaze in a large camp of migrants in Mexico across the border from South Texas this week. About 25 tents were destroyed in the fires Wednesday and Thursday in Matamoros, across from Brownsville, Texas. The camp is home to about 2,000 people who hope to reach the United States. Most hail from Venezuela, Haiti and Mexico. An advocate for migrants says people told her the shelters had been doused with gasoline. No deaths or significant injuries were reported.
