Alex Jones and Infowars gets 'disappeared' - are we headed in the right direction?

RE: Alex Jones and Infowars gets 'disappeared' - are we headed in the right direction?
What on earth are you talking about, Cap?  The only relevant change from the time that the 1st was written to today would be if the government owned twitter, youtube, etc.  They don't.  The press was already a private enterprise when the 1st was written, publishers included what content they wanted, and excluded what they didn't want.  The 1st amendment was written for no reason -other- than to protect that discretion. If anything, we've become more inclusive since then..as it's long been the case that some users content has been objectionable to the owners of the service which hosts it..and yet it remains up.  

I doubt that this will make jones any more popular...in any case.  He was already as popular as he was going to be..and his viewership will go off to the next conspiracy nutjob they can easily get on their devices. Jones isn't the first or last person to squeeze that lemon. Even more amusingly, why wouldn't a business ban some pill salesman who could do damage to their bottom line? Is their property or income his to destroy? If some asshole stands at my booth shouting crazy shit at the clouds..I'm calling the cops....and I would love to be in the room when he started bitching about his 1st amendment rights as though they were operative.

When people like jones are brushed aside and forgotten, it's nothing but a gain to everyone..even his own viewers. Recall..there are people who voted against their own interests on the basis of his "reporting" imagining that they were getting credible info..rather than an infomercial. Gay frogs, gay frogs..buy my manliness pills! First amendment my ass, lol.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
