I just came from the Shake Shack in West Hollywood. While waiting for my food I logged into the house Wi-Fi and found that the Freerepublic website was blocked, claiming inappropriate content.

What might be going on here??? Steve

Did you check to see if DU was blocked?

Of course you’d have to burn your phone or throw it in the ocean after going there, but...

Always use a VPN. (And find somewhere else to get a burger.)

Yes, we are a conservative pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-America website. That would definitely be inappropriate in godless abortionist/homosexualist America-hating Hollywood and most parts of California.

In a word, West Hollywood. One of the most densely populated gay communities in the country (as I'm sure you're aware).

I bet CNN and MSNBC, the pillars of truth and virtue, were readily available there.

President Trump needs to tweet out that he loves Shake Shack and keep doing so until no SJW will dare to set its foot in a Shake Shack.

They might have some software that keeps individuals looking at porn and stuff like that and all it takes is some conscientious individual to report some web page with cuss words or inappropriate pictures and the company that owns the software will block the website. I had some software like that along time ago that kept blocking freerepublic all the time so I had to get rid of the software. I know freerepublic doesn’t allow any naked pictures on it’s website but sometimes the pictures get pretty risque and the conversations might be ok for adults, but many prudish adults may not want their kids to see it. But somehow I have suspensions this isn’t the case here.

Not long ago I read something praising Shake Shack to high heavens and,now curious,I found there was one near me.I visited,ordered,and was not at all impressed.The cheeseburger and fries were good....but nowhere near as good as Five Guys.

I won't be back.

Tweet them and ask why, and tag @cernovich. He usually has bigger fish to fry, but getting in his mentions is always a plus.

Just be very polite to Shake Shack because if you are not, they’ll use that as an excuse to ignore and block you.

West Hollywood? Part of the People's Single Party Republic of California? I can't think of any explanation.
