View

This document appears to be a page (p. 91) from a legal manuscript or book draft, dated April 2, 2012, likely written by Alan Dershowitz (based on style and document provenance). The text offers a detailed critique of Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes's famous 'shouting fire in a crowded theater' analogy from the *Schenck* case, arguing that it is an inapt and insulting comparison to political advocacy. The document bears a 'HOUSE_OVERSIGHT' Bates stamp, indicating it was part of the materials gathered during the congressional oversight investigation, likely regarding the handling of the Epstein case.
