Just in case you, like millions of other Americans, have been denied the story, here’s the essence. Blogetery.com, which carried more than 73,000 blogs, was recently shut down. Nobody seems willing to say why or who is responsible. The loose knit story is that “law enforcement agencies” shut Blogetry.com down. Initial reports state that the sites were shut down because they contained copyrighted and intellectual material without the consent of the authors.
What authors? What content?
Whatever happened, here are some facts: no civil or criminal court charges have been filed. No court hearing has taken place. No court order has been issued. This is akin to storm troopers ramming down your doors, accusing you of issuing statements against the regime, and throwing you in jail.
There now is the excuse being floated by left-wingers that the sites contained terrorist threats and bomb making instructions. Okay, why isn’t the White House trumpeting the fact that they caught these terrorist sites and shut them down? While I haven’t mentioned it because I have not been able to verify it, there are those who say that the shutdowns occurred because the bloggers were posting anti-Obama or anti-Administration messages.
That’s a serious very charge.
Stop and think about the implications. If Obama and his Czars can shut down 73,000 websites without even a mention in the mainstream media, why can’t they shut down 250,000 or even a million? Granted, if there were in fact 73,000 websites espousing terrorist activities, we would want them shut down. Without due process? No. Without fair hearings? No.
In the absence of comment from the White House, and given the fact that the mainstream media has not covered the story, what are we left to presume? That there’s a blackout on the story? If so, why?
Are you willing to give this story a pass? Or, do you want answers?
That’s MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
