  2. @ psydneyh:

    We filed a federal lawsuit last week in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, challenging Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act (CDA) under the First Amendment. In a press release, the AFLC explained that “Section 230 provides immunity from lawsuits to Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube, thereby permitting these social media giants to engage in government-sanctioned censorship and discriminatory business practices free from legal challenge.” AFDI, its President Pamela Geller, and Jihad Watch and its director Robert Spencer, are bringing this suit.

    Every day I received emails from readers and members of my various Facebook groups, asking for help after having been blocked for posting a story or comment that might offend Muslims.
    This is America, not Saudi Arabia. Enough. Read the whole story here:

    It’s Time to Stand for Free Speech: We’re Suing the USG to Remove the Immunity that Facebook, Twitter and YouTub Use to Suppress Free Speech

    Yes, We Are Suing the Obama Administration

    The AFLC explained: “Geller and Spencer, along with the organizations they run, are often subject to censorship and discrimination by Facebook, Twitter and YouTube because of Geller’s and Spencer’s beliefs and views, which Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube consider expression that is offensive to Muslims. Such discrimination, which is largely religion-based in that these California businesses are favoring adherents of Islam over those who are not, is prohibited in many states, but particularly in California by the state’s anti-discrimination law, which is broadly construed to prohibit all forms of discrimination. However, because of the immunity granted by the federal government, Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube are free to engage in their otherwise unlawful, discriminatory practices.”

    AFDI President Pamela Geller said in a statement: “Every day I received emails from readers and members of my various Facebook groups, asking for help after having been blocked for posting a story or comment that might offend Muslims. This is America, not Saudi Arabia. Enough. I am suing. For years I have documented the outrageous bias of Facebook’s speech policies. Notoriously one-sided, those who oppose jihad terror, support Israel and stand against the most brutal and extreme ideology on the face of the earth (sharia) have been systematically blocked and banned.”

    Geller added: “And to those of you who say, ‘Forget Facebook, we’ll do without it,’ I say no. I am sick and tired of the suppression of our speech. We are unable to engage in the public square. And yes, Facebook is the public square; it’s where we connect. We have to fight for it. Shouting into the wilderness is not freedom of speech. My Facebook page has close to 300,000 followers, and combined with my pages (SIOA, SION, AFDI), the reach is another 100,000. It’s a critical connection.”

    AFDI is groundbreaking and unique among human rights organizations. Since its founding, AFDI has been a gamechanger — taking on the battle head-on, and taking it straight to the enemy. We fought for the rights of ex-Muslim teen Rifqa Bary when her father threatened her life; we dedicated a memorial to Aqsa Parvez and other victims of honor killing (the only organization in the Western world to memorialize and stand up for the rights of honor killing victims); we ran thousands of bus ads highlighting the threat of jihad and Islamic antisemitism; we defeated the sinister Ground Zero Mosque project; we filed a dozen free speech lawsuits, which we all won, with the government striking back and banning all political ads. We are fighting back, but there is a silver lining: the bad guys can’t run their propaganda anymore, either. All those anti-Israel ads? No more.

    The unparalleled and singular work of AFDI is continuing — we’re running an ad campaign in the UK awakening people to the actual statements of Muhammad, and are working on a documentary about the Islamic war on free speech featuring Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Geert Wilders, Mark Steyn, Douglas Murray, Ezra Levant and many other heroes of freedom. And now we’re fighting for free speech again with the Lynch lawsuit.

  5. Among the organizational connections I have made over many decades and the matters that I attend to maintain those connections is that I serve the National Rifle Association’s Institute for Legislative Affairs (NRA-ILA), as one of a number of Election Volunteer Coordinators (EVCs) in the various US Congressional districts of my State of Wisconsin.

    Although my wife and I live out in the countryside southwest of Madison, the state capital cityI have spent many a day testifying in support of US and Wisconsin citizen gun rights, gotten op-ed articles published in daily and weekly newspapers around the state, and worked to get out the pro-2nd Amendment voters for elections. I am conscious of having done all this as part of a carefully-organized citizen army, an army of multiple scores of millions all dedicated to the same cause.

    In fact, my loyalties to America’s lawful gun owners are nearly as intense as my loyalties to the eternal and worldwide Jewish nation, or to the United States of America as a whole.

    So when any politician or unelected bureaucrat attempts any sly or bold actions to limit our constitutional gun rights, I do my part to neutralize them, as does the NRA-ILA as a whole. Are we effective? Go ask any liberal Democrat or RINO who has made the mistake of tangling with our team.

    In any case, the fact that the latest atrocity of the Islamic Jihadist zombies, this time in southern France, involved a truck rather than firearms or explosives to commit mass murder as he last act of his life lived as a miserable dog.

    But that won’t stop crooked Hillary’s gang from blaming America’s law abiding gun owners for every death caused by those or other zombies.

    Too bad about that. But we soldier on, regardless.
