The Left’s War on Our First, Second, and Fourth Amendments

12

Nolte adopts many of the arguments I have made over the past couple of years for government anti-trust intervention in what can only be called the 21st century public square. In light of Zuckerberg’s stunningly dishonest testimony, let’s hope elected officials stop flapping tongues and actually do something.

The left is at war in the information battle-space. Make no mistake, it’s war. And too many Americans are clueless or apathetic. But there are no casual bystanders in this war. Take a stand or rue the day.

Nolte: Facebook-Deep State-MSM Complex Threaten First, Second, and Fourth Amendments

John Nolte, April 10, 2018:

Story continues below advertisement

As J.J. Sefton so accurately points out, if you take a look at the lay of the land today, what you will see is a coordinated and massive assault against some of our most cherished rights — namely the First (Facebook), Second (David Hogg), and Fourth Amendments (Robert Mueller) of the Constitution, all of which are under assault.

On Capitol Hill Tuesday, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg will be hauled before Congress, not for his ongoing corporate censorship against right-of-center voices, but for — as Sefton so perfectly puts it — letting the “Trump Campaign successfully employ the same data tools that Obama did four years earlier – which everyone thought was just so super cool and savvy.”

Yes, for the sin of not stopping Trump from enjoying the same level playing field as Obama did in 2012, the government and mainstream media are raking Zuckerberg over the coals, almost as if to distract us from the fact that he is censoring black female Trump supporters like Diamond and Silk, but only after labeling them as “enemies of the state unsafe to the community.”

While Zuckerberg is thrown into the briar patch of facing dire consequences if he ever again treats conservatives equally, we are apparently supposed to forget that he owns nearly half of the public square, controls much of the means through which we now communicate, and uses phony far-left fact checkers and Kafka-esque rules to de-platform, silence, intimidate, and marginalize ideas and thought, coming from half the country.

YouTube is doing the same, as is Twitter.

Thirty-five years ago, Ma Bell and the U.S. Post Office enjoyed a similar vertical monopoly over the way America communicated. But as long as we did not break any of the laws written by those we elected (as opposed to arbitrary “community standards” written by corporate overlords), we could express ourselves freely in whatever way we chose. Neither Ma Bell not the U.S. Mail monitored our communications, and as a result, Ma Bell never banned anyone from using its service over an opinion that offended the phone company.

Compare that to today’s tech fascists, those who lured us on to their platforms with the promise of free and unfettered speech; and then, once that market was captured, the trap was sprung with rules designed to silence and marginalize the political right.

And that is only the half of it.

Last week Kevin Williamson was fired from the Atlantic over an “unacceptable” abortion opinion. Meanwhile, Ta-Nehisi Coates continues to enjoy his job (as he should) at that same publication even after describing as “not quite human” those first responders who sacrificed their own lives for others on September 11.

Then there are the neverending boycotts ginned up through a “gotcha” campaigns launched by the organized left. It has almost become a daily occurrence to read about another cowardly or compliant corporation joining a jihad to silence someone on the right — oftentimes over opinions, jokes, or ideas, that came from the likes of Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, or Jon Stewart a decade or so ago.

Just last week, and simply for accusing media sacred cow David Hogg of “whining,” the left organized an advertiser boycott to destroy Laura Ingraham’s television career. Around 10 or so corporations quickly chose to join this un-American blacklist.  That blacklisting campaign is ongoing.

Yes, the rioter’s and heckler’s veto to silence right-of-center ideas that was once contained on the college campus is now everywhere and mainstreamed.

What decent people, true liberals, used to call “McCarthyism,” “witch hunts,” and “blacklisting,” are now blessed as progressive cures in the cause of not hurting anyone’s feelings.

Meanwhile, Joss Whedon, one of the biggest film directors in the world, can publicly call for President Trump to die, and go on about his life and career (as he should be allowed to do).

As far as the Second Amendment goes, the aforementioned Hogg is both sword and shield for a media desperate to disarm us. The 17-year-old voluntarily stepped into the arena, has accused millions of NRA members of being “pathetic fuckers that want to keep killing our children,” but if we call him a “whiner,” we are slapped with a scarlet letter and wished into the cornfield.

The push to take our guns is 24/7 in the media, an unrelenting spectacle of lies, misinformation, ignorance, and mostly hate. The idea of repealing the Second Amendment is now openly discussed, not because there is a chance of that happening, but to smooth the way for a de facto repeal when the left enjoys a 5-4 majority on the Supreme Court.

Never forget Heller.

And guns is yet another arena where cowardly and compliant corporations are hindering our God-given rights — with a form of corporate gun control that, among other things, refuses to sell to anyone under 21 or simply refuses to business with gun hobbyists or the NRA. The media hails these corporations choosing who they will do business with even as they hail the State’s persecution of cake and floral artists who do not wish to violate their religious conscience by participating in a same sex marriage.

On Monday afternoon we learned that another Amendment is not so sacred anymore — the Fourth.

With the unprecedented home and office raid of President Trump’s personal attorney Michael Cohen, special counsel Robert Mueller has gone so far as to seize the communications between attorney and client, between Trump and Cohen  — a flagrant violation of the Fourth Amendment. But what do we see in our media? A fear of prosecutorial overreach? A fear of the precedent this might set? No, only media cheerleading due to the fact that their desire to criminalize politics is coming closer to fruition — that they can still hold on to the hope of a Deep State coup that will overturn an entire presidential election.

We should all utilize our 2nd amendment Right which protects both the
1st and 4th Amendment to form a militia and arrest all Treasonous
traders and house them at GITMO and the FEMA camps

Agreed. The Second Amendment protects all the others.

Not much that can be done, other than do business with the good .. and not do business with the bad. I opened a Bank of America account, both a checking and a MasterCard .. in order to do one thing. MidwayUSA has a program, wherein they pay a small subsidy and got a discounted rate. A Life Membership, to NRA, through them is only Six Hundred US Yankee Greenback Dollars. I’ve been a life member since the early eighties … So, I bought a life membership, for my son and two sons-in-law, using the Bank of America card …. only to cancel the card, the very next day. Then, as soon as the charge went through .. I paid for it with the Bank of America account. On Wednesday, assuming that check has cleared … I will close the account. More than likely, no big deal to them .. but, I was chuckling for a full day.

Excellent Blog. However, I do think that violations of the privacy laws and interference with free speech are still a big part of this investigation. Blocks or interference with free speech have also been put on a few non-political Facebook pages or YouTube channels, and at least one left leaning. All it takes to be blocked or banned is to tell the truth, or to express an opinion about anything that is not politically correct, or even to use certain words that they will not allow. It is clear, it is no longer just conservative speech but has now become all speech. The social platforms want to control all speech. It is a God given right of all citizens guaranteed by the Constitution, and for that reason and the others Zuckerberg will be the first to go down.

Greetings!
The liberal, left-wing, progressive elites and their “subjects”, whom have chosen to simply “exist” in a world absent of the “Divinity”, Almighty God, will never understand and will forever repudiate “man’s” inalienable rights and will continue to subjugate, with force if necessary, those of us, whom with conviction and devotion, will with certainty remain “loyal”, while bearing the most audacious persecution, and under no circumstances or any condition will “We the People” relinquish the rights given by our Creator. Period.
Regards

The only reason they want to ban semiautomatic rifles is that they know we will not get into the boxcars voluntarily.

Be safe, be trained, be alert.

GET THIS STRAIGHT. No one gave us the bill of rights We took them by force. We held up the ratification of the constitution until the arrogant aristocrats agreed to a bill of rights. Anyone that thinks we’ll give them up without a long very bloody fight (not just a loud argument), has pure sh*t for brains

You will never SHUT UP the left. They will keep pushing and violating, pushing and violating till this thing called OVERWHELMING FORCE shuts them DOWN for good.

Yeah, keep prodding that anus of yours and you’ll soon get a load of diarrhea in your face. As the left are obsessed with their anus.

Everyday, go home and lick it. The scientific name is sodomy. I just call it being obsessed with your anus.

Don’t forget the 3rd. I watched as my neighborhood in Southern California turned from a lovely upper middle class district into a bunch of rentals with 2 or three families living in each house. Garages being used as apartments for families with children.

This is the liberals quartering their illegal alien ballot box soldiers in what was once our homes and neighborhoods, thereby trashing iur 3rd amendment.
