Does Sendvid Support ISIS? (UPDATED)

*****SCROLL DOWN FOR AN UPDATE TO THIS STORY*****

While perusing Twitter for ISIS accounts to "report" to Twitter, I come across many gross things...many...many sickening pictures, many gross videos, and many examples of human waste, more commonly referred to as "ISIS". Over the past few days I've been seeing a LOT of YouTube links that have been posted on these Twitter accounts belonging to ISIS members that have been removed by YouTube. This is great news! I have also been seeing a LOT of FRUSTRATION posted by ISIS members because they keep having to create NEW Twitter accounts (some of them have had more than 30 accounts) because their current one keeps getting taken down or "suspended" by Twitter.

What I have YET to see is ONE link on Sendvid to an ISIS video that has been removed. Not one. And, I've personally reported probably somewhere around 20 videos of these disgusting videos on Sendvid. In fact, when I see a new video posted on any ISIS Twitter account and there is a link to a YouTube video and a link to a Sendvid video, I don't even check the YouTube link (for anything other than to confirm that it has already been removed - and, if it hasn't, I report it if it is clear to me that it's an offending video). But, so far, I can always count on the video still being UP at Sendvid.

They have videos of ISIS murders, and ISIS recruitment videos, and videos that I would just generally categorize as "terrorist propaganda". I've reported them and that's not enough. Apparently, as is seemingly the case with ALL social media sites, more than ONE PERSON has to report an offending post for ANY action to be taken on it. I don't speak jibberish (Arabic) and most of these videos are in jibberish, so, it has to be pretty damn clear to me what it is that I'm seeing before I'll report it. So, when I report a video, it's a CLEAR violation of what all of these social media sites SAY that they're against ("no terrorist propaganda or disgusting images allowed"). Yet, nothing happens and the videos I report on Sendvid remain online.

It is because of this, that I have to ask, "Why?" WHY DOES SENDVID NOT REMOVE ISIS VIDEOS??? IF they are removing videos, I've YET to see ANY evidence of it. I've not come across ONE broken link yet to an ISIS video posted on Sendvid.

Even the Egyptian Ambassador to the United States Mohamed Tawfik had to contact Senvid via the Sendvid Facebook page about an offending video in April of this year. Note Sendvid's reply to him in the comment section:

Screen shot from the Sendvid Facebook page.

And, for good measure, here is the above post on Sendvid's Facebook page (the above screen shot is from the comment section underneath this post):

Posted by Sendvid - Instant Video Upload on Wednesday, January 7, 2015

Here's the email I'm sending to Sendvid (along with the link to this blog post):

Why are you allowing ISIS videos of MURDER on your website?
Why are you allowing ISIS recruitment videos on your website?

MURDER:
http://sendvid.com/gogc7y7h

RECRUITMENT:
https://sendvid.com/25zwdx4i

I have "reported" both of these videos...and, many, many more....on your website and they still remain online.

Do you support ISIS? If you do, that's one thing.

If you don't, get off your butts and DO SOMETHING about them using your website as a "back-up" to their YouTube videos that are constantly getting taken down by YouTube.

Sendvid.com appears to be the 2nd-favorite video upload site of ISIS from everything that I've seen (mainly in Twitter postings which is being addressed HERE).

In the meantime, while you appear to be doing nothing about removing these videos, it appears as though you SUPPORT ISIS. Do you?

I'm also including my latest blog post in which I ask this same question:
Does Sendvid Support ISIS?

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

If YOU would like to help disrupt ISIS online, please read THIS and get involved. You can also "report" those 2 videos I included above in my email to Sendvid. Anyone can report videos on that site. You don't need to be a member or sign-up for anything. Just hover your mouse on the "3 little dots" (circled in the below picture) at the bottom of any Sendvid video to report it.

Please, GET INVOLVED in helping to disrupt ISIS online. I'm beginning to see some effects on Twitter (or at least some FRUSTRATION being caused)...but, there are THOUSANDS of ISIS Twitter accounts that need to still be reported (I've seen some estimates as high as there being more than 45K different ISIS Twitter accounts). And, the more that get taken down, that many more are created. Every time an account is suspended, that person loses contact with everyone they'd made contact with. They're having to spend a TON of time re-establishing contact with their fellow heathens. Come be a part of screwing with their day.

Please share this post.

(If or when I begin seeing ISIS videos being removed from Sendvid's website, I'll post an update here on this very post.)

*****UPDATE*****
I have heard back from Sendvid via email. Here's the message I received (emphasis mine):

Ingrid Muller replied:
Hi,

Thank you for contacting us regarding this matter. As a service provider, we try to promote freedom of speech and remain as neutral as possible to all groups regardless of their views. With that being said, we do work with several foreign and domestic agencies in removing videos that we deem to be in violation of our Terms of Service.

Our Terms of Service can be found in the following link: http://support.sendvid.com/customer/portal/articles/1743605-terms-of-service

If you encounter any videos that violate our TOS, we encourage you to report them to our abuse department at: abuse@sendvid.com


Kind Regards,

Ingrid
Sendvid Support Team

So...according to "Ingrid Muller" from the Sendvid Support Team, Sendvid DOES support the freedom of speech of ISIS!!!

One more note:

I said earlier in this post that I would update this post when I saw that Sendvid had removed one of these offending videos from ISIS. They did remove one of the two videos I included in my original email to them. They removed this one http://sendvid.com/gogc7y7h which depicted the assassination of 4 men in orange jumpsuits.

They DID NOT remove this one https://sendvid.com/25zwdx4i which is a "recruitment" video posted by ISIS...so...I guess we can expect more people to be killed by ISIS as they are still being allowed to recruit members via Sendvid.

To the Sendvid team: Thanks for that, Sendvid. It's so nice to know that you support the freedom of speech of one of the most disgustingly murderous movements to ever exist in human history. Really, you should be proud of yourselves for taking such a bold stand for the rights of all of the Christians, gays, and Muslims who "aren't Muslim enough" who are certain to be future victims who will be murdered by ISIS. You should also be especially proud of your support for the freedom of speech of a group of heathens who sell female infants and girls into sex slavery. I could go on listing the atrocities of ISIS, but what would be the point? ISIS will kill you, too...unless you're one of them. (Even then, I wouldn't count on your long-term survival. You'll eventually do something that violates their Sharia law and they'll saw your head off, too. Hey, maybe they'll let one of their "cubs" practice the art of beheading on you...or maybe they'll just burn you alive? Whichever, you will have played a part in your own demise.)

Caitlyn Jenner IS A Hero - But, NOT A WAR HERO! Different Kinds Of Heroes CAN Exist In Our Society.

I was born in the early 1970's. I don't remember Bruce Jenner's performance in the Olympics where he won the decathlon and was declared the "greatest athlete of all time" (for winning the decathlon -- apparently, this is "declared" every 4 years at the Olympic decathlon.) No offense to current decathletes, but, who cares? You go on ahead and push yourselves to your bodily limits and look down on the rest of us slovenly beings. You're probably justified in doing so.

Nevertheless, I remember Bruce Jenner on the box of Wheaties that was on our breakfast table. My dad liked Wheaties. To this day, I like Wheaties. Do I have a box of Wheaties in my house today? No, I do not. Would I like one? Yes. Yes, I would. And, the next time I can go to the grocery store and I have an extra $4 to spend on something I don't need, I'm going to buy one...just for "old time's sake". (Provided I also have another $4 to buy a gallon of milk.)

I've seen many Facebook posts about "what a freak" Bruce/Caitlyn Jenner is now. I get it. He/she is DIFFERENT from you. Um, he/she is DIFFERENT from me...and, I'm gay! So, WHY is he/she "included" with the "LGBT" community?

Tonight, I finally "got it" - as a gay person - why the "trans-gendered" are included with the lesbos and with the fags...it's because the trannies are "different", too. (For anyone to dispute such a thing would make them a BIGOT, right? Surely they'd be labelled a "homophobe" for calling someone a FREAK, right?) I know I'm not supposed to use the terms I just used.....but, why should I not? Hundreds (most likely thousands) use those words to describe "us" every day. Why should it matter that I, a female fag, does so?

(I grew up in Nebraska and right now I feel like flying the Confederate flag.....even though I've only ever seen it on display about 5 times in the back of any "pickup truck" in this state.) But, I digress...

Below, you will find the video of Caitlyn Jenner accepting the ESPY award for "courage in sports" (notice that it's not the award for "courage in war").....just so we're clear on that.

At 24-minutes into the video below (...quoting...Caitlyn...):

"And, certainly last, but not least, my mother. My mom, who just over a week ago, had to have surgery and (she) didn't think she was going to make it. But, she's here with me tonight to share this night.

"You know, I always thought that I got my courage and my determination from my dad who landed on Omaha Beach (and) fought all the way through World War II. But, (do) you know what I'm realizing now mom? I think I got all of those qualities from you. I love you very much and I'm so glad you're here to share this with me."

(BIG "sigh")

"You know, it is an honor to have the word "courage" associated with my life. But on this night, another word comes to mind...and, that (word) is "fortunate". I owe a LOT to sports."

This is what I wrote on Facebook prior to writing this blog post (but, rather than posting the following comments on Facebook, I'm posting them here):
If you are not an ACTUAL WAR-TIME SOLDIER (past or present) I don't believe that you can relate to the WORD "courage". AND, IF YOU ARE, it's a different kind of courage that it takes to hunt and kill people and protect your friends and preserve your mission than it does "out" yourself as being an individual who is "different from the rest of the herd" in day-to-day "civilian life".

I believe that every person with a brain can clearly make the distinction between the two "types" of courage.

What you may not understand, because it's likely that you've never had this conversation with any gay person before, is this:

When one of your friends "outs themself", it is a ONE TIME experience for you.

FOR those of us who have to "out ourselves", it's an experience that will likely continue for our entire life. It doesn't matter how many people we've "outed" ourselves to in our own life, there will ALWAYS be someone who "hadn't heard that before".

As a friend once told me, "Coming out isn't an 'event', it's an 'experience' that lasts a lifetime."

Yay, us.

(And, I'm sick & tired of stating "I'm gay" on my own damn blog and on my own Facebook wall and page.)

So, those of you who can't understand that what Bruce Jenner has done IS courageous, why don't you walk into a gay bar, stand up on a table in the middle of the place, and declare yourself "normal"? Until you can do so, you know nothing about courage...

I am gay. I'm a gay, conservative female. I've put myself out there. And, I don't do so anonymously.

I fight ISIS online. I've stood up for conservative causes online for YEARS. I LOVE SARAH PALIN (and, I've got a license plate that proves it!) I've got several YouTube channels. I've got more than 2 blogs. I have several Facebook accounts.....but, THANK GOD, I've still only got the ONE Twitter account (because I despise Twitter - I only use it out of necessity).

Why is it that some conservative, gay woman is working HARDER than YOU are for the future of America?

You won't be able to BLAME ME for ANYTHING. I've got the record to back-up what I've done.

What have you done? What are you doing?

If you don't feel you can participate in anything ONLINE, you CAN certainly encourage those who KNOW NOTHING about "current events" to "NOT VOTE."

Our founders made damn sure you have that right.

A Short Message For My Christian Friends (VIDEO)

I was only going to post this on Facebook but I decided to include it here for any of my Facebook friends that are "away from Facebook" right now but might be subscribers to this blog.

The last half of this video is a short message from me to my Christian friends. I don't usually talk in my videos, but I did in this one. (Don't worry...there's no bad language in this video.) This video is only 2:29 long...so, it's certainly nothing earth-shattering, nor does it come anywhere close to including all of my views on the unconstitutional SCOTUS ruling on same-sex marriage...but, I wanted it to reach as many of you as possible.



I may have more to say on this subject later...and, I may not. Time will tell.

As with everything I post, feel free to share...if you so desire. Thanks!

Bernie Sanders-Supporting, HRC-hating, Communist Taunts Pro-Open Carry Advocate Outside St. Louis Zoo

A few weeks ago (on June 13th) a union-supporting communist, Richard Johnson, approached an open-carry advocate who was legally standing on the sidewalk outside the St. Louis zoo. (That's when the video was uploaded to YouTube, anyway.) Open-carry has been banned at the St. Louis zoo...that's why the open-carry dude was on the sidewalk outside the zoo with 2 handguns in plain view (gasp!), one on each hip...because he can.

The Bernie Sanders-supporting, Hillary Clinton-hating, atheist, union-supporting, animal-loving, communist, also known as "Richard or Rich Johnson" has many public posts on his facebook wall. (That's how I know he's a Bernie Sanders-supporting, Hillary Clinton-hating, atheist, union-supporting, animal-loving, communist...even though he has a "Socialist Party" emblem as his profile picture.)

*******LANGUAGE WARNING FOR ALL OF THE FOLLOWING VIDEOS AND PICTURES*******

Here's the video of poor, communist Richard shaking like a scared little girl while speaking to the open-carry dude:

That was painful to watch.

*****UPDATE***** Friday, July 10th 8:13PM CST
It appears as though Rich Johnson has removed his entire YouTube channel. I guess the heat got too much for him to handle and he's buckled under all the pressure. I guess this means he won't be single-handedly taking away anyone's right to open-carry. Here's Rich's viral video (above) - posted on another YouTube channel:

*****END OF UPDATE*****

Here's poor, communist Richard tattling on the open-carry dude...to a police officer...

Cop doesn't care! Ha ha, Richard.

Poor communist Richard swears like an armed and drunken sailor in front of several kids in that 1st video...but, he thinks it's worse for children to see a gun (gasp!) on someone's hip...


I'm almost positive that what happens in THE FOLLOWING VIDEO would MORTIFY many more parents and children than anyone legally carrying a gun on their hip would...

Pissy kitty!

********Below you can see a few highlights from poor, communist Richard's facebook wall********

I don't know if this is Richard or not. It doesn't match his profile picture on his YouTube profile.
Whoever it is, they apparently think, and Richard evidently agrees, that
it's possible to  have piles of cash for yourself. in a communist society. 

This screen shot shows that Richard is seeking sympathy from his friends because he is afraid of
cleverly-constructed bits of metal (aka "guns") and it also shows what Richard "will do next time" he 
goes out in public and gets all skeered by someone wearing a gun on their hip.  

See the previous photo to know what Richard "will do next time". 

Yes, you do.  Otherwise you wouldn't be whining to your friends on Facebook
about all the "death threats and hate mail" you've received.

Richard is too stupid to understand that he is clearly losing this little comment battle on YouTube.  Just 2 hours ago he posted another comment under his viral video in which he NOW CLAIMS to want to see "CC" (concealed carry) come to an end...but, in the video, he said he SUPPORTS concealed carry.  His main complaint was about OPEN CARRY.  In his video, he implied that he, himself, was a supporter of concealed carry. 

Richard Johnson's current profile picture on Facebook. 

"Hate letters"?  Maybe communism IS better?  This guy seems to get his mail delivered every hour.
One hour he had 120 "hate letters", the next, he had 160 more "hate letters".  LOL!  

Bernie. Sanders. Supporter.
(Richard dislikes Obama too, not just Hillary Clinton, according to his own public Facebook posts.)

There's too much stupidity and ignorance to address in this picture Richard posted...just wanted you to see it.  :)

Um, yes, Richard. Isn't the Bill of Rights fun?

I hate your opinion, Richard. But, that doesn't mean I want to prevent you from expressing it. That's one major difference between "the likes of you" and "the likes of me". I don't want to stop you from being able to do what you want. Yet, you want to stop me from being able to do what I want...even when it comes down to protecting myself. If you had to give up your right to your opinion, I might have to give up my opinion and my guns...and, neither one of us would want that "solution", would we?

It's the same Bill of Rights that protects your right to speak out, Richard, and my right to speak out (and to carry a gun to protect myself from "the likes of you".) Richard, you'd be horribly depressed if you couldn't publicly make fun of Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Christians, gun-owners, and animal abusers...while supporting socialist/communist causes...all in the same month, wouldn't you?

Maybe you should think about that for about a minute...I'm sure that would be the most time you've ever spent on the subject.

You Can Help Christians & Gays In The Middle East TODAY - HELP Disrupt ISIS Online!

Those of you who pay attention to the news know about the atrocities committed by ISIS and other terrorist organizations against Christians, gays, and other Muslims who "aren't Muslim enough" all across the Middle East. Some of you have watched the beheading videos. Others of you simply know that those atrocities have occurred. You most likely are aware of the Christian genocide that is occurring right now, during our lifetime. After the last Jewish holocaust people all over the world said, "never again". But, another genocide is occurring right now. "#NeverAgainIsNow"

I've seen the comments from many people who ask, "Yeah, but what can I do about it?"

TODAY, I FOUND AN ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION.

I've been reporting ISIS propaganda videos and accounts on YouTube and Twitter for a few months now. But, basically, I've been doing it alone (or so it seemed). Sometimes I could get one or two of my Facebook friends to help report the offending accounts, but not many of them have either Twitter OR YouTube accounts (nor were they willing to open accounts on those platforms - even to help to disrupt ISIS - go figure). NOW, YOU DON'T NEED AN ACCOUNT ON YouTube OR ON Twitter (but, it would certainly help if you had one of each so that you, too, could help report the offenders on the respective websites).

All you NEED is this website: http://ghostsec.org/ You also need the ability to copy and paste a url (web address). If you don't know how to copy and paste, you can find 100's of "how-to" videos on YouTube that will teach you how to do it. (What are you even doing online if you can't even copy & paste, anyway?)

After you submit an offending website, or YouTube video, or Twitter, or Facebook, or Google+ account, or any social media account to that website (top, left corner of the website - and, yes, you can report to GhostSec anonymously), they'll investigate and tweet out to their followers the account you submitted where capable people (like you and me) who are willing to help them disrupt ISIS can report the offending accounts to the proper websites. After each account is reported enough times, they'll eventually be removed and/or suspended by the hosting website (YouTube, Twitter, etc.).

The point of doing this is to DISRUPT the abilities of ISIS to communicate online via social media. If they can't spread their propaganda, they can't recruit more fighters to the cause. It's that simple. Will this ELIMINATE ISIS? Of course it won't. But, it has the potential to totally screw up their communication with each other and with the outside world.

Our government certainly doesn't appear to be working to eliminate the online efforts of ISIS online. I mean, if I can find ISIS videos on YouTube and ISIS accounts on Twitter after searching for all of 2-minutes, it's pretty obvious our government isn't doing a damn thing to take them down, right? It's now time for YOU to get involved. If you could spend even 20 minutes a day...or every other day...it's more than you're probably doing now, right? Now you no longer have to ask, "What can I do to help?". Now you know.

This is an ongoing online battle because as soon as one ISIS account gets suspended or terminated either on Twitter or YouTube (or any social media platform), the ISIS user who was banned simply creates another one. It's important to GET AHEAD and STAY AHEAD of them. The quicker these new accounts can be targeted, the LESS LIKELY they are to be able to maintain the communication with their sympathizers or reconnect with other ISIS fighters that is so important to their growth and to their existence.

*****When reporting ISIS accounts, please keep the message in the photo below in mind - doing so, helps to prevent wasting the time of those at GhostSec AND of those who are helping to report actual ISIS accounts. Here is the link that is shown in the photo below.*****

Credit: GhostSec.org

To clarify...

QUESTION:
What can I do about ISIS?

ANSWER:
1. Go to the GhostSec website and click on the "Our Team" tab to find who to follow on Twitter.
(Either follow them on Twitter or just go read their tweets. They'll post the accounts that need to be reported.)

2. Start reporting ISIS accounts.

If, for whatever reason, you do not wish to help disrupt ISIS online, you can contribute to the efforts of the GhostSec team by visiting their crowdfunding site HERE.

If you can't donate, share this blog post, or share the GhostSec website or share their crowdfunding site (or share it all). Everyone can help spread the word...even if you don't know how to copy and paste, just hit the "share" button at the bottom of this post.

Many innocent people 1/2 way around the world would thank you if they could.

Garland, TX "Draw Muhammad" Cartoons Air On Dutch TV (Video) - Geert Wilders

The Sharia-compliant American media won't show the cartoons from the Garland, TX "Draw Muhammad" contest...but, Dutch Parliamentarian Geert Wilders showed them in the Netherlands. And now, you can view them in the YouTube video below.

The "YouTube community" (read: offended Muslims and whiny U.S. progressives) has reported this video enough by now that you may have to go to YouTube to watch the video, so that you can click on "continue" after reading the warning that this is a "potentially offensive or graphic" video (as seen in the pic below). There's nothing "graphic" about the few cartoons that appear in the video...unless you're mentally ill. And, there's nothing "potentially offensive" about the cartoons, either...unless you're a big, violent baby and expect to live your life without ever being offended by others who do not ascribe to your beliefs.

English subtitles are included...


"What is not allowed by Islam and by the violence of terrorists, we will do it anyway. And we call that: Freedom of Speech." - Geert Wilders

If you are one of the people who finds drawings of Muhammad to be offensive, then don't draw them. But, don't expect others to have to adhere to the rules by which you choose to live your life. That's on you. It has nothing to do with me.

10K+ People United In Charleston Last Sunday - Did You Hear About It? (VIDEO)

If you are one that follows the news, you've undoubtedly heard about the massacre of 9 innocent souls in the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church in Charleston, SC last week. A 21-year old human turd sat for an hour in a bible study with the people he eventually murdered inside that church. He was caught, he confessed, and hopefully, he'll not spend too many years on South Carolina's death row.

This week in the news you've probably heard about the new push to remove the Confederate flag from the South Carolina State House building in Columbia, SC (and that the Confederate flag was used in the 1992 presidential campaign of Bill Clinton and running mate Al Gore - and, that several U.S. businesses have now stopped selling the Confederate flag). You may have heard that the Pope says that humans, not God, have created "climate change" and that anyone who manufactures guns can't call themselves a Christian. The AP published a photo which appears to show a gun pointed at Senator and presidential candidate Ted Cruz's head. Obama said n*gger in a radio interview. A 19-year old North Carolina kid plotted to kill 1,000 people in the United States on behalf of ISIS. ISIS awarded women as sex slaves to their members who could remember verses from the Koran the best. Oh, and there was another post on twitter from some loser about how he can't wait to wake up to see an attack in the UK, the US, or to see Pamela Geller beheaded (the Twitter user who posted this threat has been suspended, so I can't provide you with this link). Actually, it's not AS likely that you heard those last 3 stories as it is that you know about the phony "remove the confederate flag" BS story that is saturating the 24-hour cable news cycle or about how a stupid, female prison guard smuggled hacksaw blades inside of some frozen meat in order to help those 2 murderers escape a New York prison.

Since last week's murders in Charleston, the city of Charleston has descended into riots, half the city is on fire, 1000's have been injured, and 100's have been arrested. No. Nothing in that last sentence is true. What is true is that since those 9 innocent people were murdered in church, the people of the city of Charleston have put on a CLINIC about how to respond to an injustice in your community. There have been a couple of reports of two different statues being tagged with some graffiti. That is all that I've seen that has gone wrong in Charleston since the murders.

Given the news stories that are enveloping the daily news cycle, I wanted to bring you something that you may have missed that happened this past Sunday in the city of Charleston, South Carolina. Have you heard about the "peace march" or about the "Unity Chain for Charleston" or the "Hands Across The Bridge" event?

Photo comment from @Bear_Caldwell on Twitter:
"We are #CharlestonStrong as victim families lead the way! What a statement. " 

On Sunday, June 21st, 10,000 to 25,000 people (the estimates I've seen greatly vary) converged on the bridge for the "Unity Walk for Peace". It wasn't all white people, and it wasn't all black people. It was a melting-pot-like mixture of both races coming together and unifying for peace. Peace between races. Peace in their city. And, peace in this country.

Ferguson...Baltimore...you need to see ALL OF THIS (Nothing included below is posted in any particular order...just take it all in):

This is the best video I have come across the depicts what happened just PRIOR to the march:

This video is an "extention" of the above video. It shows more of what happened prior to the march. Skip ahead about 4 or 5 minutes to get to the point at which the above video ends:


This is the best video I have found OF the actual event:

I think this video depicts part of the 9-minute moment of silence (1-minute for each victim). I saw it reported in a couple different places over the past week that this 9-minute moment of silence was to occur. I have not seen video of it, nor have I seen any reporting to verify that it actually did occur. Nevertheless, here's about 1/2 a minute of what appears to me to be a "moment of silence":

There was a livestream of a benefit concert held on Monday night in Charleston, also. The link to the Ustream event is included in this post, but they don't have the video of the concert listed on their Ustream account (which stinks): Pour House to live stream sold-out benefit concert for Emanuel AME

Here's the woman who's idea it was to organize the "Unity Chain" in Charleston...good on her:
WCIV-TV | ABC News 4 - Charleston News, Sports, Weather

And, you'll most likely not find a more unifying message anywhere than the one seen in this 2-hour+ church service from Emanuel AME Church...from this past Sunday.


THANK YOU TO THE AMERICANS IN CHARLESTON, SC WHO HAVE SHOWN THE WORLD HOW TO REACT WHEN AN INJUSTICE ACT IS PERPETRATED ON YOUR COMMUNITY. If HALF of the USA was as good as Charleston, we all would benefit. The USA has a long way to go to GET THERE.

Thank you Charleston. You're an inspiration.

Geert Wilders Mocked In Moroccan Mosque CARTOON In Netherlands

Dutch Parliament member Geert Wilders has been mocked and/or taunted (you decide - I think, both) in a cartoon published by an "organization" of Moroccan mosques in the Netherlands according to a story published on "The Post Online" which is a Dutch website. Mr. Wilders was the keynote speaker at the "Draw Muhammad Cartoon Contest" in Garland, TX where two ISIS-linked fools got themselves killed for attempting to murder Americans who were exercising their right to free speech at the May 4th "Draw Muhammad Contest" organized by the American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI) (Pamela Geller) and Jihad Watch (Robert Spencer).

Upon returning to the Netherlands, Geert Wilders has attempted to have cartoons that depict the Muslim prophet Muhammad shown in the Dutch Parliament. He has not been allowed to do so. After being denied, Mr. Wilders will now air these cartoons this Saturday on Dutch television. (According to everything I've read, I believe that the cartoons that will be shown will be from the Garland event, but I cannot verify that.)

From Mediate (emphasis mine):

Geert Wilders, the Dutch politician who spoke at Pamela Geller‘s “Draw Muhammad” cartoon contest just weeks ago, wants to show images of Muhammad on Dutch television.

According to BBC News, Wilders was trying to show some of the cartoons in Parliament but had been forbidden from doing so, so he’s going to the airwaves instead.

The Netherlands has TV spots specifically allocated for political parties, and Wilders will use the spot given to his party to show the cartoons.

In a statement, he said, “Terrorists have to realise that they will never win and how important freedom of speech is for us in the Netherlands.”

Now Muslims from an "organization" of Moroccan mosques in the Netherlands have "fought back" by printing a cartoon of Mr. Wilders of their own (seen below - please take note of the translated captions I've placed underneath the cartoon).

Cartoon caption via Google Translate:  "We continue to build Netherlands"
and, Minder Minder (the words in "Geert's" mouth = "Less Less"

*****Stay tuned to the news this weekend as I'm sure Mr. Wilders will arm himself with a couple rifles, a few handguns, several thousand rounds of ammo, body armor, and a few IED's as he will most assuredly now seek revenge on ALL of these Moroccan mosques for having depicted HIM in a CARTOON.***** (Just as the two ANTI-FREEDOM AHOLES from the Phoenix, AZ mosque did to him and hundreds of others at the Garland, TX event.)

Um, yeah...go ahead and enjoy your weekend bar-b-que, as there isn't a chance in hell of that happening. Please say a prayer for the safety of Mr. Wilders...or at least keep him in your thoughts this weekend. Keep the safety of Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer in your prayers/thoughts as well as they are all under threats of death for SPEAKING FREELY.

I became aware of this story after reading Pamela Geller's blog tonight...in a roundabout way. She'd posted another story about yet another disgusting ISIS video but, as is the norm, no link to the original video was provided. (The story Pamela linked to from the Daily Mail did not include the actual video.) So, like I always do, I visited the ONE website that I'm aware of that ALWAYS posts the full and complete videos that ISIS releases. (I record and burn to disc as many videos like this as I can JUST so that "there's another copy somewhere".)

The website is a Dutch website called "The Post Online"...however, the entire website is in Dutch. So, I have to use Google Translate to "read" and/or search for anything posted on that website. Well, SOME Dutch words can be read, even by dumb ol' me, and I recognized "de Wilders" in the main headline on their page, so I clicked on it and headed over to Google Translate to read the story.

Below you'll find what the story from The Post Online says after Google's translation (It's not 100% clear, but you'll be able to tell the meaning of it):

(The following Google translation includes the title, date, tags, and story:)

This is him then: the Wilders cartoon of the Moroccan mosques
Is response to cartoon action Wilders airtime political parties
17-06-2015, 19:20 Tags: cartoon, Geert Wilders' PVV, Council of Moroccan Mosques in Netherlands
The organization of Moroccan mosques in the Netherlands has a cartoon released as a counter reaction to the Mohammed cartoons that PVV leader Geert Wilders wants to show from Saturday airtime for political parties.

"We want our action to show that humor is the best way to respond to the provocation and insult Wilders," said Aissa Zanzen, spokesman for Council of Moroccan Mosques in the Netherlands (RMMN). The cartoons are printed in an edition of 500 to 1000 and hanged in stations, such as Amsterdam Central Station. In addition, the cartoon is distributed through social media.

"With Wilders, unfortunately, can be traced no dialogue, he only sends" Zanzen explains the idea of ​​the cartoon of an unknown artist. "Our message is a nod to Muslims humor, you shrug and ignore it the best way to deal with the screams of Wilders."

The mosque organization, eighty Moroccan mosques said to represent the Netherlands, furthermore calls on Dutch, whatever their religion, to serve Wilders humorous reply. "We would like to see Muslims and non-Muslims make more fun reactions with the pen or the brush," said Zanzen.

My birthday is July 4th. I may draw another Muhammad cartoon in the name of FREEDOM of SPEECH on that day. We'll see...my colored pencil sharpener is currently broken. :'( But YOU can join the #DrawMuhammadChallenge at anytime you wish ONLINE...just upload your picture or video on whichever platform you'd like, and TAG IT with the hashtag #DrawMuhammadChallenge. We've heard from a LOT of "big-talkers" on Facebook, YouTube, and on multiple blogs, but we have YET to receive ONE entry other than that of my brother or I. (Click the links I provided you within this paragraph if you don't know to what I'm referring.)

(If you're still reading this...which 90% of you ARE NOT...MOST people ONLY read the headline &/or the 1st few sentences (thank YOU for READING!)...PLEASE click on the links that I provided you. Thank you. The links ALWAYS provide MUCH more context to the overall story.) ;)

A FEW WORDS OF WARNING FOR MY BLOG HERE (this blog is MY area and *I* control what is allowed here):
If you *think* you are one of the "helpers" against the insurrection of Islam into the Unites States of America and you wish to use words like "muzzie" or "mooslim" or "mudslime" or "raghead" or "towelhead" or "camel jockey" or "goat herder" or "goat f_cker" or anything else that a 6th grade boy would use to describe a Muslim.......YOU ARE NOT WELCOME HERE ON MY BLOG.

We NEED ADULTS in this fight and if you can ONLY represent yourself as a damned fool, then go elsewhere where you may be tolerated. YOU WILL NOT BE TOLERATED HERE AND YOU WILL BE BLOCKED FROM COMMENTING ON THIS BLOG. Do NOT SHARE my posts. I don't want others who LIKE YOUR childish rantings to READ what I have posted. Thank you. Grow up and please come back when others have deemed you an adult. You name-calling CHILDREN are nothing but a DETRIMENT to this entire cause! And, if I get ZERO shares of this story because I have stated this here, I'm good with that.

#GoForth, worthy soldiers.

Nebraska Man Initiates The "Draw Muhammad Challenge" (VIDEO) 1st Entry RECEIVED!

My crazy brother has uploaded his SECOND video to YouTube and this time he's calling for YOU to join him on YouTube or Facebook or on whichever social media platform you prefer to participate in the #DrawMuhammadChallenge. In the same fashion as was done with the "Ice Bucket Challenge" last year, Mike is suggesting that, in the case of the #DrawMuhammadChallenge, that after you create your drawing of Muhammad and share it on social media in video or in a photo, that you donate to a Veteran's charity of your choosing. Please use the #DrawMuhammadChallenge hashtag when you post your creation on whichever platform you choose to post it. Some of the veteran's charities Mike suggests can be seen in the picture below. (Links to the donation pages of all 4 of these charities can be found at the bottom of this blog post.)

Let me give you a brief history of Mike's video(s):
Sunday night as I was checking Facebook I noticed that my brother (Mike Dankert) had sent a message to my Facebook inbox. It was a YouTube video. And, it was HIM in the video! What the heck? I've uploaded close to 1,000 videos to YouTube (mostly news vids or "mash-ups" thereof) but, this was a first for my brother...



Oh my goodness! Of course I had to put this video on my blog! Which I did here: "Draw Muhammad" Contest Held In Nebraska - Winner Announced! (VIDEO). I posted my blog post with Mike's video in 20-30 different places on Facebook and I also sent it to a few select Conservative blogs via email or as a "news tip". The Right Scoop posted Mike's video late Sunday night here: Nebraska man wins his own ‘Draw Muhammed’ contest, shows what’ll happen to attempted beheaders. And, this morning, Pamela Geller posted Mike's video (via the post on The Right Scoop) here on her blog: LOL! (Yes, that's the title of Pam's blog post - not commentary from me.) And tonight, Allen West posted a link on his Facebook page to yet another blog that posted Mike's video.

So, after speaking with Mike on the phone Sunday night while preparing to write my blog post about his first video, Mike mentioned that he should do a "Draw Muhammad Challenge" and ask others to participate via social media.

Monday afternoon, he did just that...



After speaking with Mike via Facebook after he sent his latest video to me Monday evening, I asked him a couple of questions...(as if I know how to interview ANYONE - LOL!):

Me: "Why exactly are you doing this? Especially with the very real threat to your life that could possibly result from doing so?"
Mike: "I'm doing this because I believe in our Constitution and the Bill of Rights and I'm not afraid to stand up for what I believe in. Unlike most of our politicians in Washington."
Me: "Did you FULLY understand the possible ramifications of posting such a video BEFORE you posted it? Or, if you receive any death threats are you going to remove your videos, put your house up for sale, and run like a scared bitch for the hills?"
Mike, answering my last 4 questions in succession: "Yes. No. No. And, no."
Additionally, Mike added: "I didn't serve in the military to preserve our freedoms. I guess this is my way of serving my country and our protecting our freedoms."

Good on you, Mike! While you'll hopefully never find video of ME on YouTube (or anywhere else), I do hope you get many people to participate in your #DrawMuhammadChallenge in many various ways. And, thank you for turning the camera sideways this time. :)

Whoops! I almost forgot. Here's my submission:

My submission for the #DrawMuhammadChallenge

Regarding my drawing of Muhammad above:

Bring on the "yeah, but" crowd.
You know, the "I believe in free speech...but..." types.

My message to that crowd: I don't care what you think. You are free to think whatever you want, but I really could care less what it is. You do what you do and I'll do what I do. It's OK that you don't like what I do. You have the right to offend me, just as I have the right to offend you. In the United States of America, thanks to the 1st Amendment, we're equal like that. As someone who has been posting videos and writing on my blog for a few years now, I fully understand the ramifications of "putting things out there" that others don't like. I've already been threatened...multiple times. So what? I actually take great pleasure in offending the easily-offended. It's kind of "my thing". The First Amendment doesn't provide you the right to NOT be offended. You easily-offended crybabies need to get over yourselves. Seriously. Now, call me a "racist" (even though Islam isn't a "race") so you can feel better about yourselves, OK?

I stand with Pamela Geller. I stand with my brother. And, I stand with all Americans who are not willing to live under the influence of any Islamist influence here in the United States. I resoundingly REJECT savagery...just as I reject those who can't understand what "savagery" is or how savages conduct themselves. I am anti-jihad. I am against beheadings. I am against burning people alive. I am anti-genocide. I am against the selling of ANYONE into slavery. I am against training CHILDREN in the art of beheadings and executions. I am anti-Shariah law or ANY implementation of ANY part of Shariah law ANYWHERE in the United States. Savages are currently doing ALL of these things I just mentioned. RIGHT NOW! THAT is what SHOULD offend you.

Here are the links to the donation pages of the 4 charities to which Mike suggested you may make a donation:
Lone Survivor Foundation (Marcus Luttrell)
Chris Kyle Frog Foundation (Taya Kyle / Chris Kyle)
America's Mighty Warriors (Debbie Lee / Marc Lee)
Hire Heroes USA (Brian Stann)

Please don't forget to use the #DrawMuhammadChallenge hashtag when you post your creations on social media! Thank you!

I kicked off the donations just now...

Thank you to my friend "Karen". If not for her donation to my blog yesterday, this donation from me would not have been possible.

"Draw Muhammad" Contest Held In Nebraska - Winner Announced! (VIDEO)

The man in the video below is my brother, Mike Dankert. I didn't know he was planning on making this video. It just showed up a couple hours ago in my Facebook inbox. It seems that my brother decided to hold his own "Draw Muhammad" contest this weekend. All is explained in the video below.

I spoke with Mike a few minutes ago and he had this to add:

"Everyone is always so afraid of saying something that will offend somebody. Political correctness is ridiculous and we shouldn't be afraid of anything. We shouldn't be afraid to voice our opinions. This is America and we have that right. Political correctness is killing our country. We shouldn't be worried about it and you should stand up for what you believe in. We shouldn't have to worry about our speech offending somebody."

Ditto, Mike. I totally agree. Thank you for taking a stand. I stand with you...and I do so with my guns.

*****UPDATE (Tuesday, June2, 2015 12:34PM CST)*****
Mike has uploaded another video!
