According to this article by Voice of OC (www.voiceofoc.org), a non-profit investigative news agency for Orange County, Mayor Mark Schwing violated a man’s First Amendment Rights when he required that the man identify himself during the public comments portion of the City Council meeting this week. The man, who identified himself as Louis Smith, did not want to give a name, but was required to by the Mayor, before he could proceed.
The man was giving his opinion about the City’s decision regarding their contract with the Brea Police Department.
What do you think about this?
