Forgive me, Hugo Black. I was wrong.
Tucson City Council uses "civility code" to shut off citizen from speaking; Apparently, the citizen was reading from a court decision, and, conveniently, the city council was able to use the civility code to protect one of its own from having to answer any uncomfortable questions.
I've never been a First Amendment absolutist, but when the powers that be can read the First Amendment as permitting porn in libraries and restricting political speech, something has to give.
