Free Speech Rights Out – Censorship In

Posted by madjillmom on September 14, 2012

We offend Islamic Extremists. So the Obama Administration outs the movie maker and then goes to Youtube and tries to get the movie pulled because it offends Muslims. This action should offend everyone who loves American and the Constitution. Evidently, the White House and the “Constitutional Law Professor” think that this part of the Constitution isn’t really good enough for the bind Obama finds himself in. Let’s suspend the 1st Amendment, at least for the rest of the campaign. Aren’t all of Obama’s issues somehow related to the election and not for the betterment of America.

“I disagree with what you say, but I defend to the Ambassador’s Death your right to say it, but not when I am in a close election.” Pres. Barack Obama.

Freedom of Speech is not bound by freedom from offense. I was offended by everything that Occupy Wall Street did, but they had the right to express themselves. It offends me when someone who is an American burns the flag, but it is protected by our Constitution. Every movie made in the last few years featuring Will Ferrell offends me. So what.

If I try to censor something, it isn’t a big deal.  Government censorship is a big deal.

Mohammed Movie and the DOJ

Posted by madjillmom on September 13, 2012

Remember when targets placed on congressional districts were inciting crazy young men to shoot Congresswomen. Yeah, well I guess putting a target on someone’s back is OK with the Justice Department.

The maker of the offending film that no one has seen took pains to be incognito. He knew the reaction it would get. He has a right to make any film he likes. He is in American and is probably and American citizen. So now the Justice Department has decided to out the person behind the film. Why? Haven’t they put a target on this guys back. If he turns up dead, will someone ask Attorney General Holder why this was done? In a country where Southpark is the norm, this film is evidently stunning in its awfulness. But again, this is America. We have freedom of speech, though evidently, the Department of Justice has a problem with this part of the Constitution.

Further, it is my understanding that any depiction of Mohammed is blasphemy. Someone can make a movie of Mohammed curing cancer and picking flowers and it could still result in something like this.

Remember, it’s all Romney fault. The MSM and the Obama Administration want to make this about the movie. They continue to stumble around apologizing for it. It’s not the movie, it the Islamists.
