NO. MANY DIDN’T KNOW FOR MANY, MANY HOURS ABOUT THIS EVENT. NOT SO. THAT DIDN’T HAPPEN WITH 911, ANTIETAM, PEARL HARBOR.
BUT THE MEDIA AND LEFT ARE GOING TO PAINT THIS AS THE WORST DAY IN HISTORY. BUT THEY WILL HOWEVER FORGET WHEN CITIES ACROSS AMERICA BURNED THIS PAST SUMMER. THAT THEY WILL FORGET.
This country has now reached that ‘never let a crisis go to waste’ level of political hacking and manipulation of the people.
Instead of solving crises in this country now, we have political parties looking to leverage each crisis to take away our civil liberties.
The press told us that the BLM and ANTIFA riots were mostly peaceful while having politicians proclaim there should be no rest in the streets until there is ‘their form’ of justice and yet now, because it suits their agenda, we are to believe that the tens of thousands of protesters in Washington yesterday that did not breach the Federal building and yet the government will now what? … introduce ANOTHER Patriot Act? Some MORE dystopian laws to whittle away more of our civil liberties like an Alka-Seltzer tablet making fizzling water?
This is the first fallen brick of the Dutch Boy with his finger in the dam.
Be afraid. Be VERY afraid because THIS is only the beginning!
Facebook announced it would ban and remove photos and videos from the protest at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. The social media platform claims that photos and videos from Wednesday’s events violate Facebook’s policy of “promotion of criminal activity.”POLL: Did the results of the Georgia election surprise you?
Immediately following the Capitol protest, Facebook and Instagram locked the account of President Donald Trump for 24 hours for “two policy violations.”
Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube deleted videos from President Trump addressing the Capitol chaos, where he instructed his supporters to “go home,” and declared that “we have to have peace.” He also continued to press the narrative that the election was stolen from him.
Twitter released a statement on Wednesday that read, “In regard to the ongoing situation in Washington, D.C., we are working proactively to protect the health of the public conversation occurring on the service and will take action on any content that violates the Twitter rules.”
Guy Rosen, Facebook’s vice president of integrity, said the company deleted Trump’s video over the risk that it would increase the risk of violence.
“This is an emergency situation and we are taking appropriate emergency measures, including removing President Trump’s video,” Rosen wrote on Twitter. “We removed it because on balance we believe it contributes to rather than diminishes the risk of ongoing violence.”https://platform.twitter.com/embed/index.html?dnt=false&embedId=twitter-widget-0&frame=false&hideCard=false&hideThread=false&id=1346950532372393985&lang=en&origin=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.theblaze.com%2Fnews%2Ffacebook-ban-capitol-protest-content-trump-account&partner=rebelmouse&theme=light&widgetsVersion=ed20a2b%3A1601588405575&width=550px
“The violent protests in the Capitol today are a disgrace,” Facebook said in a statement on Wednesday. “We prohibit incitement and calls for violence on our platform. We are actively reviewing and removing any content that breaks these rules.”
Facebook also issued its “response to the violence in Washington,” where the social network announced it would ban and remove photos and videos from the Capitol protest.
“Let us speak for the leadership team in saying what so many of us are feeling,” wrote Rosen and Monika Bickert, Facebook’s vice president of global policy management. “We are appalled by the violence at the Capitol today. We are treating these events as an emergency.”
Facebook proclaimed that it has been “searching for and removing” certain content, including “praise and support of the storming of the US Capitol,” “incitement or encouragement of the events at the Capitol, including videos and photos from the protestors,” and “calls for protests — even peaceful ones — if they violate the curfew in DC.”
Facebook claimed that photos and videos of the Capitol protest “represent promotion of criminal activity which violates our policies.”
Facebook also implemented “emergency measures,” including “automatically disabling comments on posts in Groups that start to have a high rate of hate speech or content that incites violence” and “using AI to demote content that likely violates our policies.”
“Facebook and Instagram have both begun blocking content posted to the #StormTheCapitol hashtag,” TechCrunch reported.
The social media giant concluded by saying, “We’re continuing to monitor the situation and will take additional measures if necessary to keep people safe.”
Facebook did not enact a similar policy of banning images and videos during the protests and riots that have been occurring regularly since late May, following the death of George Floyd while in police custody in Minneapolis.
This particular ‘gun fear’, out of many, is far more subtle than the rest, and more pervasive as well. There is a bedrock cultural message that civilized good, honest, hard-working people, and especially with women, are supposed to be caring, nurturing and (above all else) non-violent…and that gun ownership negates all of the above. People who discover that you own a firearm or are thinking of buying one will subtly (or not-so-subtly) indicate that this says something bad about your moral fiber. That, perhaps, you aren’t the nice person they thought you were.
For the record, loudly enough so ‘they’ in the cheap suits and seats can hear, I state: There is no conflict between firearms ownership and being a caring, nurturing, non-violent person. Firearms cannot supernaturally possess you and turn you into a different woman than you were before. In fact, gun ownership can and will bolster your ability to be a caring, nurturing, nonviolent person by helping keep you alive if you are ever forced to defend your life.
Whether or not to own a gun, what kind of gun, where you’ll keep it, and when you’ll carry it, are all matters of personal choice. It can also be assured that people are perfectly capable of handling firearm safely and effectively, no matter what ‘they’ say, and especially with the training and mindset. PERIOD!
