If anything this recent banning just confirms certain things Jones has said about these big companies. I don’t agree with him most of the time but he’s harmless. What happened to free speech? It’s being taken away very slowly. Jones wasn’t spewing hate speech. Just being whacky and talking about whacky conspiracies. There are worse things on YouTube than Alex that will go on to exist on YouTube

But he isn't just 'talking about conspiracies' hes promoting them, and they are rooted in flat out hate.

I just cannot fathom coming in the same universe as appearing to defend this guy after what he has said about Sandy Hook. He is literally the scum of the earth.

It’s a slippery slope that you all seem to have no problem with. Censoring and removing someone because you disagree with their political views is blatantly a horrible thing to do. Just wait until it happens to someone y’all like, listen to, or read from.

Do you mean like youall tried to do to Letterman?

Hey, Spuds..you stated that there was no sex or violence, I simply disagreed.

As to the other issue, you are legally correct. While I am not a fan of Jones's work, I do take offense to anyone being singled out based on political leanings.

You and I do not agree on this, so be it. Peace and love, live long and prosper or what ever tidings you prefer.

I don't think he was ejected for his politics, I think it was because of the extreme violence he advocated.

Five of the largest media corporations all received complaints and all independently decided to ban him within hours of one another?

They have all received tons and tons of complaints. If you think this is the first time they have received complaints in mass then you haven't' been paying attention. If your saying that they all conspired together to do it, its much more likely one of them said they were going to do it and then all the others jumped on board as well.

Well he doesn't. Sorry you don't like his views, I don't really either, but I'm not willing to shit on free speech to shut down people I disagree with. Cry all you want, at the end of the day the people's rights you trample mirror your own rights that will be trampled in the future due to the new precedent that's being set.

I don’tike it. I understand it’s a private company but it worries me to censor any opinions even ones that are harmful and pure BS like infowars. I would much rather YouTube not ban them but 1) stop all adds on that feed so no money is made by either YouTube or Alex Jones from YT, and perhaps a warning and active acceptance to view the material before it plays.

But outright banning - one day my opinions will be counter-culture and then will that be banned?

I almost guarantee you their channel had no ads running on it already.

YouTube is horribly ran though.

I don't think "jumping on board" with other companies is in accordance with any of their terms and conditions. If terms were violated it should have been addressed at the time of the violation, independently and professionally. Not in a group effort with all their friends like a group of high school girls.

...ummm, yes he does, and yes he did...do some research... Hate to break it to you but "freedom of speech" does have its limits.

...and what makes to think I'm "crying"...that's laughable...I have provided facts, while you have provided only your opinion...big difference.

...because it's hard to screen everything, many sites often rely on input from others...it's the same here, Mods can't be everywhere all the time which is why there is a "report" button.
 
jonnyboy said:
Sorry but Alex Jones isn't responsible for the actions of others. Adults don't need other adults filtering information for them because...adults aren't children. Your assertion is the same as the conservative extremists who were trying to ban Ozzy Osbourne in the 80's. It's obnoxious, hysterical bullshit.
Click to expand...
There are several different kinds of adults, dude. Just because they are the age of an adult, doesn't mean shit. There are some extremely deranged adults out there that can't make the distinction between Alex Jones the wacky conspiracy theorist, or a preacher of truth.

See: Most Trump supporters.

Yeah, just a basket of deplorables.

You know, I can get on here with most guys, have some spirited discussions. Not always have a meeting of the minds, but can usually find some common ground and be able to respect another opinion. If you truly believe what you wrote, it is going to be a challenge with you.

The Professional Fan said:
No. I never said that. I find Alex Jones to be a dangerous person that influences dangerous people during a dangerous time. Someone is gonna get killed.

If you are an advocate of protecting people from dangerous influences, how about speaking out about the hateful rhetoric some of the Dem politicians rant about?

Stop with the boogeyman bullshit. You can't just scare people into thinking your way. Your big list of scary "What ifs" aren't a legitimate justification for anything.

I gave you a factual example of someone with an assault rifle trying to save enslaved kids in the basement of a Pizza parlor in Washington D.C. This conspiracy theory was promoted by Alex Jones. This isn't "what if's" - it literally happened. And it will happen again if these maniacs like Jones continue to have a voice. Wake the fuck up. We're dealing with unwell, stupid, people being easily influenced by people like Jones, and Jones knows EXACTLY what he's doing even if he doesn't believe it himself. It's dangerous as fuck. Don't be blind, and certainly don't be one of those people that say "what if's" until it's too late (which I have already proven it is...just a matter of time until it happens again).

Maxine Waters wants to make the fascists uncomfortable. I'm all for it. Sorry.

No, Maxine wants to harass members of an elected administration and their families unsafe.

I don't see it like that. At all. I challenge they were fairly elected to begin with, so fuck them. I hope they're harassed every where they go and I won't waiver.

You can say I'd be a "challenge" to have a convo with about this, and you'd be right. Because, when it's all said and done, I KNOW I'm going to be on the right side of history. I'm just biding my time......I feel bad for those of you that won't be. Start deleting posts and tweets now. It's going to be embarrassing.

Today Don Lemon and another CNN anchor received death threats by phone call.....who wants to make who unsafe?

Hmm, at least every week or so I see another story about some poor schmuck being pestered.

As to Don..frankly I think he would like nothing more than to inject himself into the story. I would have to have reliable verification to believe something like that. Even if that is the case, there are laws that protect him. Obviously the laws that are supposed to protect the administration and their families are not being enforced

It's because I love this Country and I'm a Patriot. A real Patriot. A registered Independent that sees everything that is going on in plain site. I have no affiliation. Shit is just really, really bad right now. Really, really dangerous. And Trump is a fucking Traitor of the Unites States of America, so under every and all circumstance, fuck him and fuck his people. Harass them all the time.
