I've been reading the names

Twitter offered no explanation for locking my account. I had started posting the names of all police officers who have died in the line of duty this year. I was nowhere near going through the 97 names (as of this date), but I’m guessing it irked one of the lefties in charge.— James Woods (@RealJamesWoods) June 9, 2020

The infamous video in question was the beating of a nursing home resident in Detroit. The victim was a frail old white man and the assailant was a young black COVID carrier put in the home. Twitter insisted that video be wiped before they would unlock my account. Surprised? pic.twitter.com/Y6ma2DvyBW— James Woods (@RealJamesWoods) June 9, 2020

I looked at Woods' account yesterday, I believe, when that happened and I can tell that it is quite likely that what happened was he posted a whole slew of VERY similar posts one after the other which triggers twitter's spam alert. It was likely restored after twitter realized they were separate posts.

I wouldn't doubt that they WOULD be nasty, but in this case, the posting was so repetitive (except for the officer name changes) that it had to trigger the spam stop. I managed social media accounts in the past and know how this works. That is the most likely explanation. And it is the most logical considering the nature of his posts. I know how algorithms and filters work on FB, Twitter, etc. (though they change frequently)

Considering the current anti police atmosphere nothing would surprise me but I just don't think that is the case after investigating. He needs to change up his posts a bit more so words are slightly different per each post. Using the same surrounding text but changing the officer's names simply triggers spam flags. That is advice. It works. If he complained they may have unflagged it going forward. But anything new doing the same technique will likely get flagged again. You have to know how to work around these things.

Why Jay Leno Was Fired

Here’s an interesting “take” on why Jay Leno was fired from NBC. He was only 63 and was far more
popular than any other late night show….

How quickly folks forget - Why Leno’s Gone...

WHY NBC GOT RID OF JAY LENO !!!

News is leaking out from Hollywood executives in-the-know that the Obama White House had been leaning on, pressuring executives at NBC for years to replace Jay Leno because the comedian was criticizing Obama every night Obama didn’t like it and considered it a racist attack on him.

After data came to light that $100’s of millions had been spent on First Family vacations during a recession, Mrs. Obama’s unpopular new laws that changed food in America’s schools and other negative news including the disastrous Obamacare roll-out & website mess, Jay Leno took his comedy to a new level and his ratings skyrocketed — none of the other comics were so bold.

NBC couldn’t stomach the fact that Leno’s jokes about Obama were always right on target about the first black president.. And left-leaning Democrat executives at NBC were being harassed by Obama himself who thought the comedy was a racist attack on him.

GOLDEN OLDIES FROM JAY:

“I was going to start off tonight with an Obama joke, but I don’t want to get audited by the IRS.”

On NSA surveillance: “We wanted a president who listens to all Americans — now we have one.”

On a new IRS commissioner: “He’s called ‘acting commissioner’ because he has to act like the scandal doesn’t involve the White House.”

On closing the Guantanamo prison for terrorists: “If he really wants to close it, turn it into a government-funded solar power company. The doors will be shut in a month.”

Concerning the Benghazi , Associated Press, and IRS scandals: “Remember in the old days when President Obama’s biggest embarrassment was Joe Biden?”

On saying he didn’t know about the IRS scandal: “He was too busy not knowing anything about Benghazi to not know anything about the IRS”

“The White House has a new slogan about Benghazi : Hope and change the subject.”

“It’s casual Friday, which means that at the White House, they’re casually going through everybody’s phone calls and records.”

“It is not looking good for President Obama. Today his teleprompter took the fifth.”

“Fox News has changed its slogan from ‘Fair and Balanced’ to ‘See, I told you so!’”

On commencement address: “He told the young graduates their future is bright unless, of course, they want jobs.”

On a Chicago man who set a record for riding a Ferris wheel: “The only other way to go around and around in a circle that many times is to read the official report on Benghazi”

On White House claims of ignorance on the scandals: “They took ‘Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell’ out of the Pentagon and moved it into the White House.”

Now the last and I think best.....

“These White House scandals are not going away anytime soon. It’s gotten so bad that people in Kenya are now saying he’s 100 percent American.”
