As a private company it is not covered by the 1st Amendment. But of course you, like Trump will ignore both those facts. And RT? Your new go to source for news on the struggle to make America white again? Your friends who served and fell in 'Nam may be questioning your patriotism over that choice. It is a direct arm of the former KGB after all.Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

Phil1111 1,149 #3 January 12, 2018 Why Twitter should ban President Trump https://www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/why-twitter-should-ban-president-trump/article37484778/ Donald Trump Is Testing Twitter’s Harassment Policy The president’s latest outbursts suggest the social-media platform imposes no editorial standards.

mr2mk1g 10 #4 January 12, 2018 Wasn't there some discussion the other week over whether or not threatening a sovereign country with nuclear annihilation was a breach of Twitter's terms of service? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DJL 235 #5 January 12, 2018 mr2mk1gWasn't there some discussion the other week over whether or not threatening a sovereign country with nuclear annihilation was a breach of Twitter's terms of service? I think they addressed this previously in a sort of blanket statement that a Tweet by a head of state is inherently a news item and not subject to the bullying and harassment guidelines established to protect users. Basically, in the same way that we're not OK with schoolyard bullies but we are OK with invading sovereign nations, Twitter acknowledges that thes communications are beyond the scope of their EUA."I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your friends who served and fell in 'Nam may be questioning your patriotism over that choice. It is a direct arm of the former KGB after all. Yup. Kinda funny that Ron (and so many, many others) were/are against Obama because of his "communist influences", yet support Trump. They deliberately ignore the fact that Manafort and Flynn are both Russian agents and that the Trump campaign almost certainly worked with Russia. The info that Trump likely was laundering money for the Russian mob is also largely ignored."There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."

normiss 801 #8 January 12, 2018 Trump is a rube, racist, angry old white man, and Obama is black. They're cool with that perspective it seems. It's disgusting what this nation is becoming thanks to Trump's ignorance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The reality was that racism and misogyny were still very common and popular. When Obama was elected, it seemed that we had seen the "beginning of the end" of that sort of garbage. The reality was that all of the "closet" racists and bigots were outraged and started to show their true colors. The "birther" crap, the "secret muslim" crap, the 'communist influenced" crap, the "We will oppose any legislation that Obama proposes" made it pretty clear that the biggest thing they didn't like was the color of his skin. Many of those people wouldn't even admit their racism even to themselves, pretending that they were questioning his qualifications. Yet they supported Trump, who is clearly incompetent and pretty clearly a con man. Trumps rise to prominence was facilitated in large part by all of these racists and bigots "crawling out from under their rocks" and supporting his "Muslim ban", "Mexicans are rapists" comments, and all the other shit he spewed. Women's issues are strikingly similar. Despite all the advances, the "Me Too" movement has clearly shown that there are still a lot of men who abuse their power for sexual gratification. Politicians, celebrities, business moguls, the entire spectrum. The positive side of this is the fact that the "light is being shone" upon all of this. It's no longer a secret. It's no longer acceptable. Many people who stood on the sidelines are taking a stand. The elections in VA and AL are potentially predictors of what will be coming. How many people were so disgusted by the choices in 2016 that they didn't vote? How many of those now regret those choices and will vote against the racist, bigotend and misogynistic party this time?"There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."
