The California Attorney General’s office argues that his comments constituted “repeated contact by means of an electronic communication device” with “intent to annoy or harass,” a misdemeanor under California law...

He needs more than just disbarment

Anyone who disregards the Bill of Rights and abuses his authority should be tried for treason

The opening statement of the defense should just ask if this is going to be the standard liberals will be held to when they criticize or mock Christians? There may be a few (million) liberals scrambling to delete many of their FB posts.

This is just dumb.

yes well i do agree that he belongs in prison, if the report is correct

once a few of these antiAmerican oppressor types are imprisoned, many of the rest of them will run for the hills and we will all be safer in our homes and lives

We were in the same boat when posters were put up against King George. If we do not have the freedom to make anonymous speech we are toast. This is why I dispose the Federal Election Commission, they are as anti-freedom as it gets. They prosecuted someone who wrote a letter in favor of a candidate for office, and delivered it to his neighbors. People are prosecuted here for political expressions. I also despise the Federal Agents who rousted the guy who made the anti-Islam video. They are the scum of the earth. Free speech is in danger here in America. Sorry to be rambling a bit here.

To me it always boils down to, I might not agree with what you have to say, but I will defend your right to say it, and I don’t even care if I don’t know who you are.

Now Christians are perfectly withing their rights, with precedence set, to sue the State of California for equal protection under the law whenever anything anti-Christian is posted.

“They can’t do anything about telemarketers spoofing a number and calling you every f’n day from a different number, but this is an actual crime.“

These people, from the owners to the people making the calls, should be publically disemboweled. Can’t catch them all, so examples need to be made.

How about if you live in Florida and you post Anti Muslim stuff to a Kookifornia’s mosque? Will you get Florida AG to arrest the person? I think Pam Bondi will tell you to F off.

said, "He wasn’t arrested for stating his opinion on Facebook... he was arrested for making a possible phone call to mosque and threatening t blow it up. Case closed"

Slawson made the calls whom is the son of a LA superior court judge. Slawson has admitted to making the calls in court. The judge of the case. Feigin did call the center but not on the date in Question. The court since then according to Reason.com "set aside" this case. Then started these facebook charges.
