    Angry Facebook Bans Gandhi Pro-Gun Quote

    Facebook bans Gandhi quote as part of revisionist history purge

    The reports are absolutely true. Facebook suspended the Natural News account earlier today after we posted an historical quote from Mohandas Gandhi. The quote reads:

    "Among the many misdeeds of British rule in India, history will look upon the Act depriving a whole nation of arms as the blackest." - Mohandas Gandhi, an Autobiography, page 446.

    This historical quote was apparently too much for Facebook's censors to bear. They suspended our account and gave us a "final warning" that one more violation of their so-called "community guidelines" would result in our account being permanently deactivated.

    They then demanded we send them a color copy of a "government issued identification" in order to reactivate our account. Our account was removed from suspension just minutes before InfoWars posted its article on this Facebook censorship, and the Facebook page is now functioning at:
    www.Facebook.com/NaturalNews

    This is a separate account from our primary Facebook account, which has nearly 250,000 followers at:
    www.Facebook.com/HealthRanger

    Logic is an enemy and history is a menace
    That Facebook would choose to disable our account after we posted a Gandhi quote is incredibly shocking. The historical rise of oppressed Indian people against tyrannical British rule is apparently no longer allowed to be discussed on Facebook. The very IDEA of a free people overcoming tyrannical government rule now "violates community guidelines." The removal of this content is akin to online book burning and the destruction of history.

    This post was not in any way malicious, nor encouraging violence, nor even describing guns or the Second Amendment. It merely reflected the words of one of our world's most celebrated rebel leaders who helped an entire nation throw off the shackles of oppression and British occupation. That Facebook would find this to "violate community guidelines" is nothing short of absolutely bewildering.

    Here is the full image as originally posted on Facebook. Keep in mind that THIS is now considered unacceptable speech across the "Facebook community," where any number of people can openly call for the murder of the NRA president and have absolutely no action taken against them:

    InfoWars.com is also now reporting that Facebook is running an across-the-board PURGE of pro-gun accounts. A huge number of accounts are all being systematically disabled or suspended, with all content being wiped clean.

    We have entered the era of the Ministry of Truth from George Orwell's 1984 novel. And while Facebook assaults the First Amendment in America, Senator Feinstein is busy assaulting the Second.

    Facebook declares war on human history
    What's especially alarming about all this is that Gandhi himself was of course a champion of resistance against tyranny. To banish quotes from Gandhi is much like banning quotes of freedom from Martin Luther King (who also openly supported concealed firearms, by the way, and who personally owned an entire "arsenal" of firearms).

    What's next? Will Facebook ban quotes by Thomas Jefferson and George Washington? Any and all patriots, founding fathers and liberty lovers throughout history might soon be stricken from the Facebook servers, and any who dare to post historical quotes supporting liberty, the Bill of Rights, or the Second Amendment risk having their accounts terminated and all content deleted.

    Collectivist propaganda has now reached a point where you can't even discuss liberty or anything out of history that supported the right to keep and bear arms. You are required to stay focused solely on celebrity gossip, sports stars, fashion distractions and tabloid garbage. Anyone who wishes to discuss actual American history must now go underground and speak softly in dimly-lit rooms, behind secret walls and drawn curtains.

    The era of total oppression and collectivist mind control has fully arrived in America. This is not hyperbole... IT IS HERE NOW.

    Memorize this quote, because it too shall soon be purged from the internet:

    "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." - Thomas Jefferson.

    Dare to post that on Facebook and you risk your account being disabled or deleted.

    Facebook is an efficient tool for aggregating personal information and creating individual profiles. Users may not realize how much about themselves they and their "friends" reveal.




    Massive act of censorship sees alternative media pages disappeared
    Paul Joseph Watson
    Facebook is purging accounts that carry pro-second amendment and pro-liberty information in a censorship purge that has accelerated over the past few hours, with innumerable pages being disappeared merely for posting legitimate political content.
    NaturalNews.com's Mike Adams contacted us to alert us to the fact that "Facebook banned our account for posting this," with an attached image of a Gandhi quote about how the British disarmed the citizenry during their rule in India.

    A home-owner without a gun should sue the paper that publishes names/addresses of armed home-owners.

    Publishing who is armed is like publishing a map for criminals. It tells where are the vulnerable houses. Where a criminal can rob without fear.

    NY Paper to Publish Additional Gun Owners' Names, Addresses

    The New York newspaper that drew criticism for publishing the names and addresses of hundreds of legal gun permit holders is doubling down by publishing the personal information of even more law-abiding gun owners.

    To great criticism, the Journal News published an interactive map ... (more)



    45 Gun Fax


    It has officially begun...

    GOVERNMENT WAR ON GUNS!

    Get ready. They’re coming for your guns. We knew it would happen and the time is here. The scourge on gun owners has begun. Right now government gun grabbing plans are being covertly organized.
    It is the truth and the Tea Party is hearing the battle cry of U.S. Citizens:
    "Do NOT let the government take our guns!'

    This insane attempt to gun grab is being fueled by the U.N., the Obama Regime, Global Communists and The New Socialist Party - of which, I might add, Barack Obama is still an active card carrying member.
    IF YOU VALUE YOUR RIGHT TO CARRY AND
    YOUR RIGHT PROTECT YOURSELF
    AND YOUR FAMILY...YOU MUST READ THIS


    Our Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms is in grave jeopardy. That profound and inalienable right is being shoved aside as our Constitution gets trampled and Old Glory is turned into a laughing stock, a mockery of America.

    You better believe it when I tell you that Barack Obama and his commie buddies are hell-bent on seizing, not just America’s guns...but our will to resist.

    You see, the Global Communists’ dream is to disarm America so WE THE PEOPLE can’t fight back when they finish annihilating our rights. Gun ownership is in perilous danger of extinction. Obama is getting worried that he can’t deliver on his global communist promises to his liberal progressive masters regarding the disarmament of America - and his desperation is mounting.

    It is time to stand up and say:
    "NO! YOU WILL NOT TAKE OUR GUNS!'

    We need to stand together to protect our

    Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms.


    Now that Obama has been elected for a second term he’s going to turn up the heat.

    Here’s what he’ll do... Incrementally, he will attempt to grab our gun rights.
    • a ban on a select type of weapon.
    • Then it will be a ban on the manufacturing of certain types of bullets.
    • Then it will be severe limitations on the amount of ammo you can buy.

    It will go on like this - he will eat out the heart of the Second Amendment unless we stop him and his minions!

    But, I will tell you right here and right now: We’ll be damned if we will let him get away with it. WE stand with them and WE will not be bullied out of gun ownership or our right to bear arms. Obama will try an end-run around the Constitution within the next few weeks, but we’ll be waiting for him.
    "Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading."
    –Thomas Jefferson

    Of all the half-assed notions spewed from the vile recesses of liberal sink-tanks comes the unfounded idiotic notion that the Second Amendment CAN be infringed upon by the limitation of States rights - or by denial of Second Amendment rights to our citizens and our military men and women!

    Obama’s toxic rhetoric is not only unconstitutional, but outright unfounded. Not only is there no case law to establish such outlandish and off-base claims, but it is an insult to anyone who can read the Constitution.

    As usual he’s making this sh*t up to serve his own world commie agenda.

    GUN GRABBING IS COMING AT AN ACCELERATED PACE
    FROM MANY DIRECTIONS.


    WE MUST ACT NOW TO FIGHT BACK!

    TeaParty.org says, "We are proud to stand with Second Amendment organizations and gun owners across America. Together we shall prevail!'
    WARNING: the anti-gun coalitions, Communist Party, Neo-Nazis, Washington liberals, politically diseased politicians and the anti- freedom freaks with their feverish lust to remove our fundamental rights will stop at NOTHING.

    We cannot sit by and wait or watch idly while they pursue their disgusting agenda. And do NOT, I repeat, do NOT underestimate what they will do.

    THE ANTI-GUN PINKOS ARE RESORTING TO:
    • Condemning military heroes as unfit gun owners
    • Using tragic events to peddle their anti-freedom wares.
    • Forcing child indoctrination against gun ownership
    • Fueling foreign disasters to invoke public sympathy against the Second Amendment
    • Employing media broadcasts to infuse guilt and shame, targeting firearms owners
    • Perverting the meaning of the Second Amendment by politically diseased politicians
    • Persuading dirty judges to rule in a jaded manner on gun critical cases
    • Vilifying gun shows as unsafe, illegal, dangerous and illicit.

    THE ANTI-FREEDOM, ANTI-GUN MOB IS GROWING

    ...but we’re bigger and more powerful!

    The United Nations agenda is pushing to disarm all Americans. Think about it: why would they do that? For POWER over the people. To make American citizens defenseless so when they put their commie conversion plans into action, we have no way to defend ourselves or to fight back!
    WE THE PEOPLE MUST NIP THIS IN THE BUD AND DO IT NOW!
    BUT HOW?


    I know this is not an easy topic and the thought of gun grabbing should scare the bejezus out of you. It does me. I assure you that there is help - a way to fight back hard and win! The Tea Party is committed to preserving the Second Amendment right of the people to keep and bear arms.Every time socialism and vile One-Worldism rears its ugly head we must slap it down. Body-slam the anti-freedom idea to the mat! It is time to take-off the gloves. WE THE PEOPLE must send Washington a message they will never forget. They need to hear us loud and clear. I told you moments ago the Tea Party is committed to your constitutional right to keep and bear arms and we are doing something about it.
    Our Tea Party Combat Conservatives have created a powerful fax blast that will shake Washington to the core!

    We named this fax blast after the noble 45 caliber.
    We call it the "45-GUN FAX."
    That’s right. This new fax blast will knock your socks off and theirs, too. Well, actually it is going to knock the notion of gun grabbing and Second Amendment annihilation right out of their beady little heads.

    Yep, it’s HOT! Searing and blistering hot. And, we’re going to send it to all 100 Senators and 435 Members of the House of Representatives
    "45-GUN FAX'

    Send it to all 100 Senators and all 435 Congressmen for a total of 535 faxes to the Washington establishment!

    GunOwnership1 45 Gun FaxI want to tell you that for some of our other Fax Blast Washington programs we receive a $57.00 donation, but because we’re SO PISSED OFF we want to send 535 faxes in your name for only: $45.00. That’s it! You save $12! All I can say is WOW!

    That $45.00 represents the Second Amendment, gun owners and gun owner and activist groups all over the USA. What a way to honor our gun friends than with a fax named after the .45 caliber!

    '45-GUN FAX'

    READ THIS: The "45-Gun Fax' is waiting for your approval! If you like what you see, then lets blister Washington and let them know we are going to stand our ground. NO ONE and we mean NO ONE messes with our gun rights. WE THE PEOPLE RULE.

    "I am deeply concerned Washington thinks they are in charge. We must remind them they are our day laborers and they do our bidding" Steve Eichler – CEO/Tea Party www.TeaParty.org

    You, my friend and fellow Patriot, have seen for yourself the threat that is now at the door.
    • Gun shows are in jeopardy...
    • Gun ownership is on the brink of collapsing...
    • Gun ownership databases are being prepared for installation...

    To make matters worse, the president is siding with the U.N. and their anti-gun and anti-freedom agenda!

    What more do you need?

    "45-GUN FAX' is only $45.00, you’ll be making a powerful fax statement and helping the Tea Party as well!

    Have us send 535 Red Hot Faxes to our representatives in Washington telling them to stop any type of gun control. This is your chance to yell “I’M KEEPING MY GUNS!” and tell them what you think loud and clear. Let us be your voice with the “45–GUN FAX.” Be afraid, very afraid. It is time to LOCK AND LOAD YOUR FAX BLAST

    "The most deadly attacks are at night, when no one is watching, things are quiet and all seems well. If WE THE PEOPLE wish to retain our freedom we must hold tight to the U.S. Constitution, for once it slips from our fingers, it is lost forever." Steve Eichler – Tea Party
