Coping with Protest – Hollywood Leads the Way

Posted by Tina

The big shot star power elites in Hollywood have always been strong supporters of free speech and expression. They spit contempt whenever anyone brings up the subject of censorship. But when Obama says a Muslim movie caused Muslim mayhem artists in Hollywood tow that line!

Bette Midler has come out in support of Obama excuse making by calling for prosecution (censorship + prosecution+ blacklisting) of the obscure film maker:

Bette Midler cast aside freedom of speech earlier this week by saying the filmmaker responsible for the anti-Muslim movie in the news should be charged with murder.

Midler isn’t alone in shoving aside the First Amendment.

Both hip hop mogul Russell Simmons and “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon” musician Questlove are siding against free speech. When you’re an unabashed supporter of President Barack Obama, party loyalty trumps the right to create, apparently.

Ordinary citizens may be confused…Andrew Klavin at PJ Media offers help:

Andrew Klavin: How to Behave During an Islamic Massacre

Klavin has a point. Filmmaker Bill Maher bashed the Muslim religion for twenty minutes at the end of his film, “religulous”. There have been no Muslim uprisings as a result and to my knowledge no calls for his arrest and prosecution. In fact he is regularly applauded and rewarded with laughter. The President had nothing to say about it being unhelpful.

Which reminds me…if the film was responsible for inciting anger how does it help the situation that his mouthpieces are all over the networks insisting that the movie is to blame for the protests…the movie made them murder our ambassador! Might as well invite them to continue. And why does the administrations story conflict with others out of the ME?

Daily Mail reports officials in Libya warned US officials three days before the attack on the embassy:

A Libyan security officer has claimed that he warned American diplomats about the possibility of violent unrest three days before the attack on the U.S. consulate which left the ambassador dead along with three others.

The country’s president also says that the deadly raid in Benghazi was ‘pre-planned’ by Al Qaeda and other ‘foreigners’.

However, the U.S. has hit back at that suggestion, with a top diplomat insisting the attack was ‘a spontaneous – not a premeditated – response’ to violence elsewhere.

Then there’s this, but warning, the site contains video with graphic content:

Lies, confusion and doubt…a little laughter with Klavin helps but ultimaely we have to sort it out before November and decide whether we give a damn about our freedom and security.
