It's all over the place, I won't bother linking you ... it's easy to find

Shortly following that statement in the NYTimes transcript, possibly as a response to a heckler:

You have free speech so I can be heard.

And this speech was in 1994, so "lost his brain after 9/11" isn't an excuse. He's been a creepy authoritarian for quite a while.

I suppose it just might be preferable to having him hypocritically pretend he gives a damn about "rights". But only if he loses.

Notice how they _always_ have to immobilize someone first, then Tazer them? It's because if you're standing and unrestrained when you get tazered you can just drop to the ground and roll, breaking the contact wires.
