Is our First Amendment in Danger?

Alex Kozinski, Chief Judge of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals and Professor Eugene Volokh, The Volokh Conspiracy

Our distinguished speakers are the Honorable Alex Kozinski, Chief Judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit and Eugene Volokh, Gary T. Schwartz Professor of Law, UCLA School of Law.  Thursday, November 8, 2012

 There is no other nation in the world with the First Amendment.  It mandates our freedoms of speech, worship, press, assembly and petition.  There are forces that are attacking the First Amendment, however, in ways both obvious and subtle.

Join Children of Jewish Holocaust Survivors for a fascinating discussion about the most important principle underlying U.S. democracy.

The Honorable Alex Kozinski

UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT

Judge Kozinski was appointed United States Circuit Judge for the Ninth Circuit on November 7, 1985, and became Chief Judge on November 30, 2007. He graduated from UCLA, receiving an A.B. degree in 1972, and from UCLA Law School, receiving a J.D. degree in 1975.

Prior to his appointment to the appellate bench, Judge Kozinski served as Chief Judge of the United States Claims Court, 1982-85; Special Counsel, Merit Systems Protection Board, 1981-1982; Assistant Counsel, Office of Counsel to the President, 1981; Deputy Legal Counsel, Office of President-Elect Reagan, 1980-81; Attorney, Covington & Burling, 1979-81; Attorney, Forry Golbert Singer & Gelles, 1977-79; Law Clerk to Chief Justice Warren E. Burger, 1976-77; and Law Clerk to Circuit Judge Anthony M. Kennedy, 1975-76.

Judge Kozinski is the son of two Holocaust survivors from Romania. Sabine, his mother, spent the war in a Romanian ghetto; Moses, his father, was held for four years in the Transnistria concentration camp with about 150,000 other Jews.  In 1962, when he was 12, his parents brought him to the United States. The family settled in the Los Feliz neighborhood of Los Angeles, California, where his father, Moses, ran a small grocery store.

Judge Kozinski is married to Marcy Jane Tiffany and has three children: Yale, Wyatt and Clayton, and two grandsons: Quinn and Owen.

Eugene Volokh

Eugene Volokh teaches free speech law, criminal law, tort law, religious freedom law, and church-state relations law at UCLA School of Law, where he has also often taught copyright law and a seminar on firearms regulation policy. Before coming to UCLA, he clerked for Justice Sandra Day O’Connor on the U.S. Supreme Court and for Judge Alex Kozinski on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.

Volokh is the author of the textbooks The First Amendment and Related Statutes (4th ed. 2011), The Religion Clauses and Related Statutes (2005), and Academic Legal Writing (4th ed. 2010), as well as over 70 law review articles and over 80 op-eds, listed below. He is a member of The American Law Institute, a member of the American Heritage Dictionary Usage Panel, and the founder and coauthor of The Volokh Conspiracy, a Weblog that gets about 20,000 visits per weekday. He is among the five most cited under-45 faculty members listed in the Top 25 Law Faculties in Scholarly Impact, 2005-2009 study, and among the forty most cited faculty members on that list without regard to age. These citation counts refer to citations in law review articles, but his works have also been cited by courts. Six of his law review articles have been cited by opinions of the Supreme Court Justices; twenty-one of his works (mostly articles but also a textbook, an op-ed, and a blog post) have been cited by federal circuit courts; and several others have been cited by district courts or state courts.

Volokh is also an Academic Affiliate for the Mayer Brown LLP law firm; he generally consults on other lawyers’ cases, but he has briefed and argued Ingram v. Battaglia / Rush v. Frank before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, and State v. Drahota before the Nebraska Supreme Court.Volokh worked for 12 years as a computer programmer, and is still partner in a small software company which sells HP 3000 software that he wrote. He graduated from UCLA with a B.S. in math-computer science at age 15, and has written many articles on computer software. Volokh was born in the USSR; his family emigrated to the U.S. when he was seven years old.   This is a rare opportunity to gain insight into one of the most controversial subjects of our day.   Eugene Volokh California "British Accredited Registry" (B.A.R. #194464) Current Status:  Active, This member is active and may practice law in California.  See below for more details.

[sidebar:   Dear Eugene Volokh and Alex Kozinski, Et Al.  First, the FIRST AMENDMENT is for all the children of America including, but not limited to, those that suffered the HOLOCAUST GENOCIDE HERE, we call the PEOPLE "INDIANS".

We have communicated after a fashion, Eugene, when CRYSTAL COX was in Spokane, Washington and so was I.  The same problem we were both facing:  PORTLAND, OREGON'S VILE EVIL CORRUPTION.

The VILE EVIL hasn't improved.  You, Alex Kozinski, and I have indeed had quite an opportunity to MEET, in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals where TORTURE MEMO JAY BYBEE did sit, and then another SUICIDE among the JEWISH PEOPLE, THE 'CHOSEN' appear to be in denial about so many reasons for such APARTHEID-GENOCIDE decisions as though sane.

METZITZAH B'PEH.  Did you have this ritual, too?  The HOLOCAUST survival of the BLOOD RITUALS, there are so many religions with such an abomination of CLEANSING our Homo Sapiens species?!  PLEASE MUTILATION OF OUR SPECIES, SEE CLIFF HIGH THE GRAND PENIS CONSPIRACY AND STOP YOUR TRAUMA CYCLES.

Sins that nature sure didn't do.  The human being has been into the falsification of reality forever!

CHOSEN are the TRIBE that decided HEBREW is the tongue of true wagging.

All tongues wag and some tongues wag a lot more energetically than other tongues.

LIEYERS love to wag the tongue and get paid to be the best tongue wagging predatory, by the word was a delicious overindulgence.

But, of course, consciousness may find some responsibility in a FIRST AMENDMENT cause, however the agenda has a faction still attached and this problem has to be here in the Twenty-first Century, definitely addressed.

MONEY SOVEREIGNTY MEMBERS OF THE AMERICAN BAR ASSOCIATION?  Are we in the United States?  Doesn't seem at all like the LAW in AMERICA has yet to meet the ENLIGHTENMENT.

The Enlightenment is what the first idea was, of course the corpses of the Indians were all buried in that fraudulent word tongue wagging, as were the women's rights' and the rights' of the poor slaves ALL, including every immigrant from every part of the planet earth to build MANIFEST DESTINY.

We can, the people in America, not hooked into the tongue wagging cultists' LEGAL TRIBE, watch as the sunsets in the time of how those that actually swam in rivers of denial as the fishbowl of the universe shattered into the new world rounded out of flat.

HOLOCAUST?  Oh yes, study IDA TARBELL and know the Standard Oil Trust was and is the MONARCHY of U$A.  GOTROCKS is dead, too, as is due process rule of law.

No money sovereignty and therefore, no such idea:  U.S. CONSTITUTION.  Not any amendments matter absent our right to be free in the world of vile evil slavery, word tongue wagging only for a select few more than proves this to be wholly unfortunately, too true.

HOLOCAUST SURVIVORS 'JEWS' got the CREDIT, free to be grown into the culture we see of almost totalitarian corruption.

Perhaps nature has a better idea.
