Conservative Commentator Says Facebook Blocked Him Over Politically Incorrect Post About the NRA, Paula Deen and Jesus

“I’m about as politically incorrect as you can get,” Starnes wrote. “I’m wearing an NRA ball cap, eating a Chick-fil-A sandwich, reading a Paula Deen cookbook and sipping a 20-ounce sweet tea while sitting in my Cracker Barrel rocking chair with the Gather Vocal Band singing ‘Jesus Saves’ on the stereo and a Gideon’s Bible in my pocket. Yes sir, I’m politically incorrect and happy as a june bug.”

I like the Gaithers too—but recently all I see are infomercials.

The term “politically correct” originated in Soviet Russia. We now have giant communications companies blacklisting people because they don’t meet that standard. Welcome to Obama’s Amerika.

Can “thoughtcrime” be far behind? Wait for the day where it is illegal to disparage the leftist government or Islam or gays and pedophiles, because that day is coming.

Todd Starnes is awesome! If you are on FB, I urge you to “like” him.

Liberalism is simply incompatible with freedom. Ultimately, there can be no reconciliation. The country will have to balkanize at some point. That is our only option.
