The Wall Street Journal reported on Saturday that Facebook has decided that Donald Trump violated its “hate speech” policies in calling for a ban on Muslim immigration until a way could be found to stop importing more jihadists.
Its chairman, Mark Zuckerberg, however disagreed with some employees — including a dozen Muslims involved in censoring content — that Facebook should remove Trump’s comments because he is, after all, a presidential candidate.
Facebook has adopted, though, the European Union’s practice of suppressing so-called “defamation” of Islam. And Zuckerberg’s candidate, Hillary Clinton, supports U.N. Resolution 16/18 that effectively requires the prohibition of speech that offends Islamic supremacists.
If Mrs. Clinton becomes president, count on your First Amendment-guaranteed freedom of speech not extending to discussion of the global jihadist threat, lest it offend the jihadists.
That’s a formula for getting more of us killed by them.
