In a stunning turn of events, a local man announced he is exercising his right to criticize another man’s right to criticize a man’s right to criticize a woman criticizing a man.

In a 120-character essay posted on his Facebook, Marc Copeland explained how he was displaying his constitutional rights to criticize a man who had criticized a man criticizing a woman.

“I just don’t think it’s fair how somebody can say something like that,” Copeland said in his post. “First Amendment rights only go so far.”

A controversial statement by Kari Williams had received heat by Don Rice, who had in turn been scrutinized by Leonard Holmes.

Copeland thought that this was the perfect opportunity to really let his opinion be known to his close friends and family.

“People can’t just go around saying whatever they want,” he said. “Unless, of course, it’s what I agree with.”

Also explaining that it might be confusing, Copeland insisted that Rice was in the right, and all other statements against them were “obvious slander,” and that the media was “twisting their words.”

“I can understand how some people might disagree with me,” Copeland said. “And I get that. But people need to realize that there are two sides to a controversy: right and wrong.”

Some of Copeland’s friends were left angry from his post, while others were just simply confused.

“I don’t get it,” said Joey Malone, Copeland’s roommate from college. “He’s criticizing free speech, but at the same time using it.”

A few of Copeland’s friends were more supportive of his post, calling him brave for making the statement.

“Some people just need to figure out that Holmes’ words on Rice’s words on Williams’ words just don’t make any sense,” said James Fisher, a close friend of Copeland. “Why can’t more people see that?”

Reports say that after dissenting comments were left on his Facebook post, Copeland left a scathing number of replies.
