A late-night jab reignites a bigger debate: Who polices speech in America? This episode traces the line between sins and crimes, argues against government licensing of media, and defends freedom of conscience under the First Amendment. We contrast “strongman” instincts with a biblical model that honors authority, rejects vengeance, and fights bad ideas with better ones—through open debate, market pressure, and the light of God’s Word. From David, Nathan, and Shimei to today’s media oligarchs and the internet’s “Babel effect,” the case is made for liberty over tyranny and persuasion over censorship.
