Meagan May, the girl I wrote about yesterday, has
deleted her Facebook page. Apparently this was the results of constant
harassment by military and pro-military persons who didn't like her critical
comments about the military.
They probably called or contacted that theater where
she worked and tried to and get her fired—and it was a complete success. Some
of them put up that Facebook page: "The TRUTH
About Meagan Hatesoursoldiers May," a juvenile form of libel, and
constant attempts to humiliate and harass the woman. They also put the same
kind of libel and insults on her regular home page, trying once again to
humiliate her and "pay her back" for criticizing what they see as our
divine military men and women.
If they wanted to drive her off of Facebook—it
worked.
They have shown us an example of US free speech in
action. If a group of patriotic and pro-government persons feel insulted, they
can and will try and cost the person his/her lively hood, reputation and
humiliate them to the best of their ability. All this is retribution for those daring
to criticize Americans who believe they are above the law, divinely anointed by
God to protect this country, deserve lavish praise and should never have to
listen to anyone who would disagree with what they do and say they do.
Then they
brag that they were fighting for "OUR FREEDOM." That includes freedom
of speech. In May’s case, they treated her as if she were an “enemy combatant.”
They have a very strange idea of what
freedom means. How can they fight on the other side of the world for freedom of
speech then deliberately punish May for practicing such freedoms here at home?
Why can’t they see how foolish their arguments look to so
many of us?

PS; She just reopened her page tonight. I saw it at 10:02pm. A few hours after I posted the original of this.
