Shouting Fire: Stories from the Edge of Free Speech (2009)

If you have the opportunity to see it - do not miss the opportunity! Recently I am playing with HBO. (I thank HBO for showing such a controversial documentary.) Why is this film controversial? Because it is very political. This is probably the most political movie you will see.

I guess this movie has the potential to change your perception of the world more than any movie you've ever seen.

Film director Liz Gasbus gave me a wonderful portrait of her father - a courageous freedom of speech - Martin Gabbs. I can not imagine any child respecting their parents.

An era when government panic spread, and unprecedented attack by Bush's mobs attacking freedom of speech - cried the movie "Stop it!" How wonderful it is. But if it threatens your belief in your beliefs (but no doubt) you may hate it.

Fire cry: The story at the end of freedom of speech is a documentary on freedom of speech and the first amendment instructed by Liz Garbus in 2009. The main content of the documentary is Martin Garbus, First Amendment lawyer who talked about past and present freedom of the press in the United States and Ward Churchill case. As professor of ethnographic research at the University of Colorado, Churchill announced controversial articles on the September 11 incident, and was dismissed after investigating academic cheating related to other issues. The film also explores the cases of Debbie Almonte, Chase Harper and protesters at the 2004 Republican National Competition in New York City. Respondents included lawyers such as historians, law scholars, and Floyd Abrams, David Horowitz, Eric Fonner, Donaree Berman, Daniel Pipes, Richard Posner, Kenneth Star and Josh Wolf.

Fire cry: The story at the end of freedom of speech has explored freedom of speech in the United States through contemporary cases where the first amendment played a very important role. This documentary not only focuses on the issue of freedom of speech in our country, but also an American who does not want or wishes to abandon civic liberty in exchange for national security in the days after 9/11 We are also paying attention. Film director Liz Garbus talks about the story of a movie with her father, lawyer of First Amendment, Martin Garbus. Garbus gave his own personal experience and other historical references to show off the story through other important periods tested with the first amendment in the domestic history, including the McCarthy era We led us through use.

Oliver Wendell Holmes of justice solved this problem in 1919 using the famous hypothesis. "The most strict protection of freedom of speech," he said, "I can not protect men from shouting at the theater or causing panic." It's not. But what should I do? Text does not mean it? This is a problem: "Congress shall not enact any law ... deprivation of freedom of speech" shall define "freedom of speech" that Congress can not despise. In other words, the phrase "freedom of speech" is not self-definition. As Holmes Justice has proven in his hypothesis, it does not cover the individual who shouted "Fire!" By mistake in a crowded theater.
