Feds: Farrakhan's anti-white rant 'protected speech'

The U.S. Attorney's Office for Southern Florida has determined the racially charged July 30 speech by Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan did not cross the line of what is considered protected political speech under the First Amendment.

WND inquired last week with the U.S. Attorney's Office, asking for an opinion as to whether Farrakhan's call for 10,000 men to "rise up" and to "stalk them" and "kill them," warranted any sort of criminal investigation.

Farrakhan, in a fiery sermon delivered from the pulpit of Mt. Zion Baptist Church in Miami, referred to a "400-year-old enemy," which many took to mean white people.

Louis Delgado, spokesman for the South Florida U.S. Attorney's citizen complaints division, responded Friday with the following statement:

"… after looking into the matter we have determined that the Farrakhan speech is protected by the First Amendment and we will not be pursuing an investigation into the speech."(continued)

I'm thinking that if you or I had done this, we'd be in jail.

The U.S. Attorney's Office for Southern Florida {under intense pressure from the DOJ} has determined...

More likely.

Regardless of the fact that this thing is a hate filled bigot idiot, legally the FBI is correct. But, he is dangerous.

then how come it is not protected speech when a white supremacist does it. I don’t see the difference......personally I agree its free speech but the hypocrisy from Obamas justice department gets to me.

I’m thinking you would be correct.

And if you protect yourself from these animals when they come after you, the DOJ would consider you to be the aggressor.

Obama is going to get his race war. And the government is going to side with the killers.

A race war wouldn’t last a day, which is why there’s never been one, for all the talk.

Inciting murder, anyone?

The US attorney’s office is part of the Department of Justice.

In some ways, this really is the ‘most transparent administration’ ever. We all see their anti-white, anti-American, anti-Christian biases. Their hatred; It’s all crystal clear!

Is this the same “Justice” dept. that let the new black panthers run free after they threatened whites with weapons at a Philadelphia voting site in 2008?

I thinking you’re right. Anyone white making similar statements would be jailed on something.

It wouldn’t have been “protected” if a honky said it. The Feral government is full of racists and bigots these days.

Like an earlier version of this (Bay Area in the early 1970's) the MSM employees will covreup ("spike" is the old term) the news "black members of an offshoot of the Muslim religion [earned] "Death Angel" status [by murdering] a certain number of white children, white women, or white men". Not surprising that it is a "[crime] wave that has strangely been forgotten."

I guess knockout games weren't getting the desired results.

From Amazon books. A customer writes:

This book recounts the horrifying crime spree known as the Zebra killings that happened in the Bay Area in the early 1970's. This spree, committed by black members of an offshoot of the Muslim religion, was done in an attempt for the murderers to win "Death Angel" status. This dubious honor was given to any "true believer" who murdered a certain number of white children, white women, or white men, or a combination of the three . . . Taking place over several months, the killers took several lives and wounded others in their barbaric attempt to win Death Angel wings . . . What is even more chilling than the specific Zebra murders is the fact that other Death Angels supposedly existed in California and could be walking the streets even today. For those with a strong stomach wishing to find out about a savage wave of crime (a wave that has strangely been forgotten), this is a must read.

Unless its like the Black on Black one happening on the south and west sides of Chicago, Baltimore, and other cities ruled by Democrats for decades.
