“.... Why Americans Are Lucky” For now. The forces of evil want very badly to be able to simply say—
“That’s no longer legal!”
“Possession of that can lead to 10 years in jail.” And, like rust, they never sleep.
Bill Of Rights? LOL! Sorry, that is from a bygone era.
Generally agreed, but I do like the gov’t policy of not allowing the terrorist’s face to be shown.
These guys should get no publicity at all - no name, name pics; hang them and cremate them and throw the ashes into a cess pool.
I got $5 that says that photo was taken at least an hour after it was all over.
“... Don’t forget this FACT: The man who attacked a mosque in New Zealand Friday wrote the name of a little girl killed in a 2017 terrorist attack on his rifle, justifying his own attack as “revenge” for her death.
Alleged gunman, 28-year-old Australian man Brenton Tarrant, attacked two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand, killing 49 people and wounding numerous others, according to CNN. Written on the shooter’s rifle was Ebba Akerlund, the name of an 11-year-old partially deaf Swedish girl who died in an April 2017 terrorist attack...”
Millard is the Hot Air village idiot - and he’s got some stiff competition for that honor at HA.
Arguing for the free distribution of snuff videos probably isn’t the wisest notion that’s come into his one living brain cell.
I guess I don’t see how he was connected to a Swedish girl.
I still want to hear the NZ PM explaining to the Muslims that they are safe because the police are protecting their mosques.
The prime minister put on a headscarf and a funeral face and embraced a random member of the congregation that was attacked.
You and I know that the PM wouldn’t have shown 1/10 as much grief if a middle easterner had attacked a church or synagogue.
Quoting article: There’s nothing wrong with websites like Facebook or Google deciding to block videos of shootings or suspend accounts if they choose to – as long as it’s not by government edict.
There is something wrong with that. We need to beef up the Free Speech laws to include the major social media platforms in the First Amendment legal structure, as public spaces in the electronic world (not private property) just as we have public space in the real world.
New Zealand doesn’t have the equivalent Bill of Rights, like we do in the USA. They’re able to do that here, and perhaps the Marxists/Leftists Democrats would like to do it here, too ... but we still do have the legal protections of the Bill of Rights, even if there are Marxists/Leftists fighting against them.
“We need to beef up the Free Speech laws to include the major social media platforms in the First Amendment legal structure,”
And if someone decides that Free Republic is a major social media platform does the government get to decide who and what gets blocked on FR?
Their mantra is: “Bill of Rights? You don’t need no steenkin’ Bill of Rights!” And, as I said, they are constantly looking for ways to deny us those rights.
The implication being...?
Come on! Don't be coy with us!

I think the idea that is trending among leftists now is that because the US Constitution once condoned slavery, it should no longer be considered the law of the land.
Well, in liblogic, that should be enough to throw the entire constitution out the window.
I can no longer comment on movies at Amazon because the Amazon police said I broke community rules. Meaning I upset a snowflake
If it was still on, they’d be crouching behind cars not doing the combat sling strut.
re: “The prime minister put on a headscarf and a funeral face and embraced a random member of the congregation that was attacked.”
It gives one a good idea of who they are afraid of. That, and coverage in the ‘press’ ...
The ‘corporate entities’ are enforcing their ‘homogenized speech’ ... and so, in the public spaces of the electronic world, there is no such thing as the First Amendment.
That needs to change and laws need to be made enforcing the First Amendment in major social media corporate sites where the public gathers in mass to make statements about whatever.
That's a safe bet. Watching the video (unedited, uncensored), the shooter left the first mosque, got in his car and began driving. I'd guess that he was several miles down the road when the first police sirens are heard in the distance.
If he hadn't shot up a second location or done the manifesto/live video stream thing, the cops might still be trying to figure out who did it.
