The Left Has Gone Full Authoritarian, "Jokes Should Get You Jail Time" Says Congresswoman | Democrats Want A 21st Century Sedition Acts

Democrat Demands Prosecution Over Jokes, The Left Has Gone Full Authoritarian. A Democrat recently said that anyone making fun of congresswoman should be prosecuted and that they will 'shut them down.'

This may remind you of the most Infamous acts passed in America that went completely against our Free Speech in this nation, which showed our government sometimes ignores the Constitution for what rights to protect and instead choose to take them away. The year was 1798, and the Federalists passed an act called The Alien and Sedition Acts, these acts held clauses to John Adams for secrecy and was against others expressing their beliefs about him. John Adams with this act became the first President to do an undeclared, unconstitutional war (Quasi-War) and the first to try to hide it and silence his political enemies (Thomas Jefferson).

The Sedition Act 1798
(An act for the punishment of certain crimes against the United States.)
"Sec. 2. And be it further enacted, That if any person shall write, print, utter or publish, or shall cause or procure to be written, printed, uttered or published, or shall knowingly and willingly assist or aid in writing, printing, uttering or publishing any false, scandalous and malicious writing or writings against the government of the United States, or either house of the Congress of the United States, or the President of the United States, with intent to defame the said government, or either house of the said Congress, or the said President, or to bring them, or either of them, into contempt or disrepute; or to excite against them, or either or any of them, the hatred of the good people of the United States, or to stir up sedition within the United States, or to excite any unlawful combinations therein, for opposing or resisting any law of the United States, or any act of the President of the United States, done in pursuance of any such law, or of the powers in him vested by the constitution of the United States, or to resist, oppose, or defeat any such law or act, or to aid, encourage or abet any hostile designs of any foreign nation against the United States, their people or government, then such person, being thereof convicted before any court of the United States having jurisdiction thereof, shall be punished by a fine not exceeding two thousand dollars, and by imprisonment not exceeding two years."
