Front Page Magazine: Al Gore: Ban Free Speech, Just Like Guns, to Save the Planet

He argues for reforms to democracy and capitalism, calling for restrictions on speech and the First Amendment. Gore's fortune comes from promoting "sustainable" investments, much like he wants to make speech sustainable by regulating what can be said.
