John Mellencamp: ‘mean’ bloggers don’t deserve free speech

July 9, 2009 By admin

Some of you are saying, “who…?”

The former GM spokesman says:

“I don’t think people fought and gave their lives so that some guy can sit in his bedroom and be mean. I don’t think that’s what freedom of speech is,” he continued. “Freedom of speech is really about assembly — for us to collectively have an idea. We want to get our point of view out so we can assemble and I can appoint you to be the spokesman. That’s freedom of speech — to be able to collectively speak for a sector of people.
