Twitter Legal Warns The Gateway Pundit’s Cristina Laila – Her ‘Burka Tweet’ Violates “Pakistan’s Blasphemy Laws” – Which Are Punishable by Prison or Death
Twitter legal issued TGP’s Associate Editor, Cristina Laila a warning that she violated Pakistan’s blasphemy laws over a tweet wherein she called for burkas to be banned in the United States.

The specific Pakistani blasphemy laws Cristina violated are punishable by life imprisonment or death.

Yes, you read that right. Twitter, an American company, warned an American citizen who was exercising their First Amendment rights about Pakistan’s Islamic blasphemy laws.

In a years-old, since deleted tweet, Cristina called for the burka to be banned; this offended the Pakistani government enough to force Twitter to spring into action.

Burkas should be banned in the United States. Not only are they highly oppressive to women, we have no idea who or what is hiding underneath the garment. Americans are used to seeing people’s faces and a burka breaks down non-verbal communication between people in public.


The email from Twitter legal read:

Sounds like a real winner:

"Armenian, Anti-Islam, Anti-feminist. Islam is a death cult of rape, slavery and pedophilia and must be stopped in order to preserve our freedoms. Contributing writer for Gateway Pundit."

I think you guys posts articles from that trash site.

Here is the real human waste story:

The shutdown exposes the dead weight of Government Employment, for those of you who worry about them.

Reuters does only a partial disclosure as well, I guess since its a holiday. Lol.

“HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT
Of the department’s 7,500 employees, only 343 are expected to work.

That fine department has what 4.5% essential?, and 95.5% non essential. Hmmm. Nice, lots of paper might sit around.

TRANSPORTATION
Of the department’s 55,000 employees, 20,400 will be put on leave. Those employees do not include most of the Federal Aviation Administration, where 24,200 will be working, or the Federal Highway Administration, where all 2,700 employees are funded through other sources.

Air traffic control, hazardous material safety inspections and accident investigations will continue, but some rulemaking, inspections and audits will be paused.”

So 62% deadweight. In DOT.


https://www.reuters.com/article/us-...-partial-us-government-shutdown-idUSKCN1OL0O9

“The National Park Service, under the umbrella of the Interior Department, will have a skeleton staff. Under its contingency plan, no national parks will be open and no visitor services - including restrooms, facility maintenance and trash collection - will be provided.”

 

[offthehandle]

Even your favorite Liberal Newspaper points out the shutdown is really nothing. BFD. They even pay these non essential people 4 hours pay simply to bring back their govt cell phone and finish their time cards. Amazing waste.

Q: What stops happening during a shutdown?

A: A grab bag of federal activities. The Internal Revenue Service is closed. At the Federal Communications Commission, calls to consumer complaint hotlines go unanswered. The Small Business Administration is closed. Some facilities could remain open temporarily, while others close their doors.”

Q: Do federal workers have to come in even if they’re not supposed to actually work?

A: Some will have to — briefly, anyway. This is what’s known as an “orderly shutdown,” during which employees who are furloughed can be allowed up to come in for up to four hours to preserve their work, finish time cards or turn in their government-issued phones.

ISIS beheading photos are on social media and Alex Jones gets kicked off, yet the politically correct keeps up with foreign countries laws and enforces them too.

Well, the EU is suing various Silicon swamp companies, sounds like more foreign countries should copy, cut and paste their legal documents and do the same.

Will Twitter soon employ a worldwide thought police force to apprehend such highly dangerous twitter criminals?

Seems to me, they could use the same code existing to censor conservatives with just add a few more lines of code to censor a list of words offensive, and block them country specific. Then only publish results elsewhere where nobody gives a shit. Better yet, why not have a self serve button for each user to self censor specific words by each user to their offensive level of tolerance.

Pragmatism, never is factored in.

I'm curious if it will pick up or die down. I think die down. If it held at 2 million a day, that's 492 days. I don't think people's attention spans and news cycles last that long.

You and the Dems were on Obamas team, now your party has flip flopped to an open border policy and resist, obstruct, 9th circuit games, etc. Silly really.
Ton’s of people have been arrested in all administrations. The irony, is because of Trump, people have surged in Caravans to arrive. That speaks for itself. If the illegals hated Trump, and his economy and good business vibe like you... they would stay home.

But most illegals are visa overstays, so the Caravan is only a small segment.

Nobody has flip flopped, stop repeating what Chump tells you, stop lying. We're not for open borders, we're for not wasting money on a wall. Same thing Trump's Chief of Staff said "What they need is more manpower, and more technology, and more willingness to enforce the law as it exists today."

Ann Coulter mocked as she makes spot on predictions in 2015

Jimmy Kimmel used his show to trash the nearly 250,000 people who have donated to a GoFundMe for a border wall, calling them “dopey people” and saying that they are “dipping into their meth money.”

Yea, “Manpower”, that wasn’t politically correct, shame on you! Need to stay consistent with your parties doctrine, “Person Power”, like the Gingerbread person.

Obviously, we need more DHS Government employees to suck on the tit of the Taxpayer.

Both parties have failed.

Answer I said before, The Sanctions... the ones Congress wouldn’t pass during Reagan Amnesty.

Huge $$$$$$$$$$$ Employer sanctions for hiring illegals should be enforced for local law enforcement getting a piece of that pie, like SF parking tickets. Imagine how this mess would disappear. Under the table paid Gardeners and maids employed by anyone even a home owner, $50,000. Fine. Like alleged violations from big corps like Tyson Chicken $1,000,000. Per employee, per day. That would end illegals, and make them have guest worker legal programs, paying taxes etc.

ha, now you're complaining about hiring more people because they're..............government people.

Then a Trump supporter saying we should sanction those who hire illegals. What kind of sanctions would you like to see for Trump?

That is by far the best and fastest solution to the problem!

You just bitched at me about my anti govt employee posts yesterday. Ha. Short memory.

You read it, I am often equally disappointed with both parties. The wall if ever completed should reduce dhs and border patrol employment.

Tourist visas and if violated with long overstays in other countries include a block of reentry and fine, some are hefty. I guess you’d oppose that too.

The US should have a high risk category for air arrivals from shithole countries, need to pay a refundable deposit of $1000. To fly and board, the collect upon entry. That might fund the wall.

I do remember, you didn't get the point. You're complaining about illegal immigration, then complaining about hiring that could help with that problem.

 

[offthehandle]

It was removed from the 80’s Reagan Bill, I recently confirmed that reading about it as when I posted it before I was mistaken and thought it was never enforced.

I do make some mistakes, like earlier that “Wall donate” to Trump stupid link was a spoof or some goofy thing.

Julian Epstein, a rational democrat even mention it. Start at ~8 minutes

Capitalism is about a free market, so let it work for normal citizens, not rigged against them by under the table workers.

So now you think the Government needs more employees?, now lets hire Illegal Aliens to work for the government as they need jobs. Right. Got it. Great idea. How about hiring normalized DACA former illegals as Border Patrol officers?

With the homeless and under paid employment, youth, inner city unemployed caused by illegals being exploited, perhaps market forces might work. Its crazy that people who are citizens don’t work, won’t work, or can’t because of hiring illegals.
