I didn’t know the case by name, but if anyone said “do you know the ‘fuck the draft’ case” my reaction would be “oh shit yeah I know that one!”
I'm not a lawyer, but I know plenty about the Supreme Court case Cohen v. California. Is it wrong of me to think that somebody who is a practicing attorney should have heard of it?

Post a pic of the venue where you saw your first concert and a pic of the band.
I’m gonna count this as “first concert I went to without parents”, so:
Von Braun Civic Center
Breaking Benjamin, ~2005

I’m seeing a lot of people predict that “the right wing media is going to turn this story for Trump” and “they’re going to work overtime to make America forget this” and you should tell that to all these people out there in Minnesota in fucking January. This can matter. This will matter.
A friend in Minneapolis just sent me this video. Looks like thousands have come together for a vigil after an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. This was my neighborhood for several years before coming to Portland.
