Bloggers beware. And those who use email, too. And those on Facebook. And Twitter. And anyone else using social media: Diss a Muslim and the Department of Justice will be on your case with the full weight of federal law.
The Obama administration, which is launching a series of Muslim Outreach Summits so that Islamists can tell federal officials how they better can serve that community, says it also is holding educational outreaches to let people know that Internet postings that violate civil rights are subject to federal prosecution.

Bill Killian, U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Tennessee, is scheduled to appear at an event sponsored by the American Muslim Advisory Council of Tennessee next week, and will provide input on how civil rights can be violated by those who post inflammatory documents targeted at Muslims on social media, according to a report in the Tullahoma News in Tennessee.
This is an educational effort with civil rights laws as they play into freedom of religion and exercising freedom of religion, he said. This is also to inform the public what federal laws are in effect and what the consequences are.
He said everyone needs to understand that Internet postings that violate civil rights are subject to federal jurisdiction.
After all, he said, while some Muslims may blow up buildings, hijack airliners and kill thousands, there are terrorists of other religions, too.

I'd like someone to cite the law...word for word.
Since when did people have a right not to be made fun of, or insulted?
DOJ and Islam can kiss my well armed ass!!!!
Hi Eric! Durka Durka!
What kind of law school did this guy go to. I guess he skipped the class where they dicsussed Skokie IL. Absolutely hateful activity, but still protected speech.
The article is long on generalities and short on specifics. Just what sort of internet posting could violate anyone's civil rights? I'm not aware of any civil rights laws that protect groups from having 'hurt feelings', which seem to be a major topic of discussion relating to Moslems in particular.
Probably not so much bloggers.
Even if their immediate family reads half of their crap, that's still only eight people in the whole nation.
If they aren’t going to enforce it, it doesn’t do much for their already collapsing credibility. Unfortunately they’ll have to charge us by the millions.
After a few weeks in the Italian facility, they came to visit Grandpa "How do you like it here?" asked the grandson
"It's wonderful! Everyone here is so courteous and respectful," said grandpa.
"We're so happy for you. We were worried that this was the wrong place for you, since you are a little different from everyone."
"Oh, no! Let me tell you about how wonderfully they treat the residents," Abdullah said with a big smile.
"There's a musician here - he's 85 years old. He hasn't played the violin in 20 years, and everyone still calls him Maestro!
There is a judge in here - he's 95 years old. He hasn't been on the bench in 30 years and everyone still calls him Your Honor!
There's a dentist here - 90 years old. He hasn't fixed a tooth for 25 years, and everyone still calls him Doctor!
And Me - I haven't had sex for 35 years, and they still call me The F*****g Arab.
The good old US of A used to be the place you are thinking of.
If we aren’t prepared to fight to keep it that way, we don’t deserve it.
LOL
screw violent muslim jihadis.
hypocrite govt over there killing them, arresting others for words.
Is there anyone among our “Christian” congresscritters who take offense at this?
If not, there should be no reason to contribute to a political party.
Got that DOJ?
How does a post on the internet violate ANYONE'S civil rights?
the disgusting criminal perversion known as islam was founded by a murderous drunken pedophile got the purpose of elevating a stone moon god dragged out of a disease ridden brothel and referred to as allah by the fools stupid enough or weak enough to be cowed into conversion by these savages.
Prosecute that.
