College Palestine / Israel Protests: Free Speech, Hate Speech & Your First Amendment Rights w/ Lawyer Harmeet Dhillon – Ask Dr. Drew – Ep 353

May 4, 2024

Protect speech, punish violence. True supporters of the First Amendment oppose government suppression of free speech even if the speech is abhorrent. But when does free speech cross the line – or can “hate speech” even exist without violent actions?

As college students at Columbia, UCLA & UT Austin rally around the Israel / Palestine conflict, First Amendment attorney Harmeet Dhillon pledges to defend the rights of “jack**s terrorist apologists to protest” until they target students for their ethnicity or become violent. What should happen to the students who vandalized Hamilton Hall – and how does the state’s response affect the free speech rights of everyone else?

Harmeet Dhillon is managing partner at Dhillon Law who focuses on commercial litigation, election law, and First Amendment rights. She represented President Trump in legal cases related to his removal from the ballot in multiple states. Follow Harmeet at https://x.com/pnjaban and learn more at https://DhillonLaw.com
