A Brief Explainer About The Nature Of Fraud

And no, this has nothing to do with the First Amendment.  This is just good ol' hornbook common law fraud.  Popehat is right: selling people what they want is perfectly legal, unless you are selling them something truly harmful to their health and outlawed by law, like moonshine instead of liquor from a liquor store.

Selling ideas that are disgusting, like, say, birtherism?  Well, can't do much about that; not at law, anyway.
(because I never get tired of jokes about Tucker Carlson and M&Ms)
