    When you google censorship of the media...

    Censorship is the suppression of free speech, public communication or other information which may be considered objectionable, harmful, sensitive, politically incorrect or inconvenient as determined by governments, media outlets, authorities or other groups or institutions.

    It's all be said by now...here in the UK since brexit it showed how divided this country is, thanks to UKIPs Nigel Farage (don't trust him btw) ...and now America has elected a complete ...insert here.. . Now today with the go ahead for the Dakota pipeline it shows the future agenda ...if he's allowed..people have the power...the bullies can't be allowed to dictate the image of your great country...it's a sad time. Keep expressing your freedom to express, it's a human right for all genders, races, it's all a matter of choice. Choose freedom...

    I'll give him credit for actually doing all the crazy shit he promised to do in his campaign. Not that I approve of it, but unlike every past POTUS he is actually keeping his promises. We're screwed.

    The blackout is the latest and will probably end once this promise is fulfilled.

    Eliminate our most intrusive regulations, like the Waters of The U.S. Rule. We will also scrap the EPA’s so-called Clean Power Plan which the government estimates will cost $7.2 billion a year.

    This is a message board for fans of a common band. Your free speech doesn't entitle you to say some of the things you do on their board. What goes on here represents the band to an extent and if they don't like it, then you won't be posting anymore. Their right to free speech tops yours on THEIR board. The fact that you're still here shows how respectful the team is here of your freedom of speech. I would not have afforded you the length of the rope you've been given.

    Also join every march/protest you can. Protest does actually still work sometimes. The bigger the better.

    The Gold King Mine disaster was actually caused by Obama's EPA and they missed the boat in Flint. American Carnage.

    C'mon Kat...you've censored far more people then Trump ever has. Sure this is a forum with rules to be enforced but federal agencies (which include national parks) also have rules with respect to communications and federal employees are expected to follow those rules. If employees of these agencies disagree with the politics of their leaders then they can resign. One has a right to free speech but they don't have the right to operate outside the rules of this forum or outside of the rules of their employer.

    And you have the right to leave this board if you don't agree with how the band has been asked it to be run.

    Also, to the federal employees who did those tweets- if you get fired or reassigned, it's your own fault. I don't like Trump or what he did today, but he's your boss.
