Denying someone else's free speech rights, even someone I'm related to, is unacceptable.

If she wanted a video to post, she could have recorded herself confronting her parents on why they're voting for Cruz. This juvenile stunt won't accomplish anything.

Denying their free speech rights?

My wife tore a trump bumper sticker off her dad's truck, I never realized what an oppressive fascist she was!

Now, go in and have a "Come to Jesus" (or Beto) conversation with them, because they are clearly uninformed.
