Not defending this site at all. But keep in mind, Many on the left would described FR as alt-right, harboring racist ideology, etc. The toothpaste is out of the tube. Who's next?

Now, if they would do the same to CNN, we could have some peace.

I agree. An internet site is nothing more than free speech. I assume they would win a law suit if they filed one.

I’ll defend the site - so long as they’re not advocating violent overthrow of the government let them say their peace.

That, so-called, “civil rights lawyers” have managed to successfully censor a website is chilling and frightening and must be stopped hand, tooth and nail.

hate sites

What bull sh#t. What are "hate sites"?

Better pull down every last one of the Delusional Lying Leftist sites that are saturated with hatred for America and Americans.

Who’s next? Perhaps the hate America sites? Sites like those belonging to the major players in the recent protest movement, all or nearly all of whom are communist or anarchist-communist. One of them openly calls for the violent overthrow of the US government. Same org created the phony “Refuse Fascism” group. That org is the Revolutionary Communist Party. See my FR Home page for lots more on who these groups are.

Either there is free speech or there is “approved speech.” There cannot be both.

“Approved speech” will be whatever those in power say it is.

Banning Internet sites is stupid, no matter how unsavory they are, and that includes Jihadists as well.

Because leaving them alone enables them and their members to be exposed for what they are.

Freedom of speech is a wonderful thing, for it quickly exposes the fools.

And the traitors.

While I detest that toxic camp of Jew hate and love for the 3rd reich, we should all remember that could happen to us in an afternoon.
We have all enjoyed the wild west days of the internet. Now they are moving to sanitize it and make it safe for globalists and leftists.

This is an early book, and a bit old now. But it really lays out how in the 90s Hillary understood what the internet would be and made hard moves to have its content government regulated. The first amendment is as valuable as the 2nd.

The answer to bad speech is more speech.

Meanwhile, in San Francisco today thousands gathered for a demonstration marking the fact that the “so-called” (to quote the newsreader chippie on CBS’s local Philly outlet channel 3) Patriot Prayer conservative rally planned for this afternoon had been cancelled due to safety concerns - we are now openly celebrating the fact that free speech found unworthy by the mob can be shut down under threat of harm to those trying to exercise the right - this is very chilling stuff......

So it was acceptable for over two decades, but only became a problem after some random doofus killed one person with a car in Virginia?

Of course, if an Islamist kills several with a car, nothing happens. #PrayForEurope

Stormfront has looked pretty tame compared to some of the “storming” on FR. I’d have as soon let it be.

Who gets to decide which sites are “hate” sites.

That determines which sites will be taken down.

Right now left wing socialist nutjobs appear to have the power.

The Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law,

Holy crap. The Lawyer's committee is a COMMUNIST organization setup by the KGB, which has supported every mass murderer from Stalin to Mao to Pol Pot to the Sandanistas. And THEY get to remain online?
