Rocktard: The NFL doesn't have to let players exercise their freedom of speech, they're a corporation!

also Rocktard: How dare facebook silence people making threats on their platform, they're violating freedom of speech!

Holy shit! Ted Cruz is claiming 1a violations by facebook? WTF? These guys have no moral compass and they're minions enable it by supporting them and regurgitating the talking points.

To be fair the NFL hampering someones free speech and Facebook/Twitter doing it are in completely different leagues.

Yeah it's not even close to the same thing. The NFL is clamping down on their own employees' free speech while they are at work and representing the league. Not to mention the NFL is about playing football, or at least it used to be before they decided to make it a political organization.

Facebook claims to be a social media platform that is open to everyone and all ideas yet they are clamping down on certain speech from one segment of their user base. If Facebook just came right out and said "Yeah we don't like Republicans so our platform is just for Democrats now" then that would be one thing. The fact that they claim otherwise then engage in underhanded and sneaky tactics to silence certain people because of their political leanings is bullshit.

Facebook can censor whoever the fuck they want to, it still isn't violating anyone's 1a.

No it isn't. Neither the NFL or Facebook is the federal government. 1a violations don't apply to them.

Notice Cruz didn't threaten legal action against Facebook? People saying #1A is just shorthand for free speech. Relax and get back to your subpoenas.

Nice deflection. Still not a 1a issue.

Except you know, Clinton banged the intern on the resolute desk while he was president.
