Mozilla Foundation CEO: De-Platforming You is Not Enough

Published January 11, 2021 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Censorship


We need more than deplatforming - Mozilla Foundation CEO Mitchell Baker

If your politics are anything but far-left, The Mozilla Foundation, creators of the FireFox web browser and the Thunderbird email client, despise you and everything you say. Removing you from social media platforms is not enough. They want to utterly destroy your online presence so nobody will ever hear your WrongSpeak again. This week we saw the culmination of a … [Read more...]

Is Jordan Peterson More Terrifying Than Adolf Hitler?

Published March 22, 2019 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Censorship


Is Jordan Peterson more terrifying than Adolf Hitler? According to New Zealand book retailer Whitcoulls the answer is an unequivocal and resounding "YES!" The book seller pulled 12 Rules for Life from its shelves after the terrorist attacks on two Christchurch mosques. When questioned, Whitcoulls Customer Service representative Erica said this. "Unfortunately 12 Rules for … [Read more...]

Facebook Group “Chilliwack Uncensored” Censors Cassandra Oosterhof Article!

Published May 22, 2016 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Censorship


It's an astonishing reality that those who call themselves "uncensored" are often the worst censors of all, yet that's precisely the case with the Facebook group named, oddly enough, "Chilliwack Uncensored." Yesterday I wrote an article about Chilliwack huntress Cassandra Oosterhof and her quest to win the title of "Extreme Huntress 2017".  It's an article describing what … [Read more...]

Censorship Essential to Combat Terrorism says British Prime Minister David Cameron

Published November 27, 2014 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Censorship, Freedom of Speech


Governments of all kinds despise Freedom of Speech. Dictatorships despise it because, if allowed, their detractors relentlessly denigrate them and their lack of integrity. Democracies despise Freedom of Speech for precisely the same reason. Freedom of Speech allows mere citizens to comment upon the actions of their so-called leaders, both good and bad. The United Nations … [Read more...]

The Canadian Charter of Approved Beliefs? I thought it was the Charter of Rights and Freedoms!

Published July 6, 2014 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Censorship


I could have sworn we mere citizens, through the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, enjoyed a quaint little notion called Freedom of Religion and that we could not be discriminated against because of our choice of religion. It appears I was mistaken. Either that or the moronic bigots at Nanaimo City Hall violated the Charter Rights of Canadians they identified as … [Read more...]

Politically-Correct Madness: Washington Redskins Trademarks Cancelled by US Patent Office

Published June 19, 2014 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Censorship, Politically Correct Madness


The Washington Redskins are a football team which has operated under this name since 1932. A bunch of nanny state ninnies decreed the term "Redskins" is derogatory and the team should be stripped of its name. An article in Politico made a big deal about this, quoting such authorities as Harry Reid as if that lends legitimacy to the stripping of trademarks held by a … [Read more...]

Canadian Musicians Demand Internet Censorship on top of Taxpayer Subsidies

Published January 21, 2014 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Censorship, Culture of Entitlement


If I were a Canadian musician I would like to think I'd be ashamed to be associated with Music Canada or it's chief whiner, Graham Henderson.  This self-righteous yahoo believes the only way to save Canadian musicians is to censor the internet. Why? Because he believes there are too many "illegal music sharing sites" available through search engine results.  It doesn't … [Read more...]

Alison Redford’s Alberta Government Passes Anti-Free Speech Law

Published December 5, 2013 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Censorship, Freedom of Speech


Unions have an astonishing amount of power in today’s society. There is no doubt about that. The way to deal with militant unions is not, however, to strip union members of their Right to Freedom of Speech. Bill 45, titled the Public Service Services Continuation Act (view PDF), does a lot more than simply “continue” public services. Stuffed inside this bill are some very … [Read more...]

Canadian Human Rights Tribunal’s 100% Conviction Rate is No Surprise

Published June 11, 2013 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Censorship, Freedom of Speech, Hate Speech, Human Rights Commissions


Since 1978 the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal had a 100% conviction rate for cases brought before the Canadian Human Rights Commission (CHRC) under Section 13 of the Canadian Human Rights Act. This perfect conviction rate is hardly a surprise given that Tribunals rule that “Truth” is no defence against prosecution Speaking “Truth” is actually used as “proof” of your guilt … [Read more...]

Thought Police Compare Publisher with Child Pornographers and Sexual Predators

Published June 9, 2013 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Censorship, Freedom of Speech, Hate Speech, Human Rights Commissions


The Arthur Topham criminal “hate speech” case here in British Columbia continues to leave me scratching my head in amazement that we actually pay Crown Prosecutors good money to act like such idiots.  I’m specifically talking about Quesnel Crown Counsel and (president of Quesnel Bar Association) Jennifer Caroline Johnston’s antics in court. Johnston, Arthur Topham relates in … [Read more...]

The Solution to Intellectual Property Piracy on the Internet is… legalizing computer virii?

Published June 5, 2013 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Censorship, Property Rights


A group in the United States that calls itself the Commission on the Theft of American Intellectual Property released a massive tome on internet piracy on May 22, 2013.  Their report proves just how disconnected from reality these folks are.  It’s mind-boggling, even from a “progressive” standpoint! First Hollywood tried claiming copyright for a film they neither created nor … [Read more...]

Lillooet, BC, Takes SLAPPing “Mere Citizens” to an All-New Level

Published May 29, 2013 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Censorship, Freedom of Speech, SLAPP Lawsuits


Just down the road from me is the town of Lillooet.  It’s a nice enough place to live except, that is, for the local politicians.  They’re a nightmare; control freaks of the highest order.  Back in 2010 Lillooet Mayor Dennis Bontron wanted to ban what he called “unauthorized meetings” in an effort to curb vandalism. The penalties proposed for holding an "unauthorized meeting" … [Read more...]

Nelson, Georgia, sued by the Perennial Gun-Haters at the Brady Center

Published May 28, 2013 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Censorship, Constitutional Violations, Guns, Political Antics, Self-Defense


On April 3, 2013 I wrote an article titled Why Government Despises Liberty… Thoughts on Bastiat’s classic “The Law” in which I discussed the principles Frederik Bastiat wrote about at length. I started off here: "Life, liberty, and property do not exist because men have made laws. On the contrary, it was the fact that life, liberty, and property existed beforehand that caused … [Read more...]

Why so-called “Hate Speech” laws can never work

Published May 23, 2013 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Censorship, Hate Speech


There is a very simple reason why "hate speech" laws do not and can not work.  You simply cannot "ban" an emotion, any more than gun grabbers can ban stupid people.  You cannot legislate away stupidity, nor can you legislate away an emotion. Human beings hate.  Human beings love.  Human beings, no matter how many times the parental hand of the Nanny State demands it, will … [Read more...]

US State Department Gets Knickers In a Twist over 3D Printable Handgun

Published May 12, 2013 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Censorship, Freedom of Speech, Gun Politics, Guns, Political Corruption


Earlier this week Cody Wilson, the founder of Defense Distributed, made history by creating a single-shot firearm using a 3D printer and then firing it.  Personally, I find this absolutely fascinating and a marvel of human ingenuity. Wilson, often referred to in the press as “the radical libertarian and anarchist founder of Defense Distributed” successfully designed a .380 … [Read more...]

Canada’s Broken Parliamentary System

Published May 5, 2013 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Censorship, Ethics in Politics, Politics


How quickly our elected representatives forget the source of their power: we mere citizens.  I often joke that Members of Parliament are not our representatives to Ottawa but Ottawa’s representatives to us.  It’s a joke, a cruel one at best, and it’s on us. “Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed…” Those simple yet … [Read more...]

Freedom of Speech? No Thanks, We’re Canadian…

Published March 3, 2013 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Censorship, Freedom of Religion, Freedom of Speech, Guns, Podcasts, Rights


[powerpress] On Wednesday, February 27, 2013 the Supreme Court of Canada had the opportunity to stand up for Canadians’ Right to Freedom of Speech. To call their ruling in R. v. Whatcott an “Epic Fail” would be a gross understatement. When the Supreme Court starts out by explaining as it did in Whatcott, not that individual rights are the very foundation of our … [Read more...]

Illinois State Senator Ira Silverstein desperately needs a history lesson This intellectual neanderthal believes anonymous commenters on the internet are a threat to Freedom and Liberty, forgetting that the Founding Fathers and framers of the Constitution of the United States of America wrote the Federalist and Anti-Federalist Papers using pseudonyms to protect … [Read more...]

Prince Rupert School District Despises Freedom of Speech; Orders Teachers to Remove T-Shirts Promoting Section 2(b) of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms

Published February 28, 2013 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Bureaucrat’s Rule #1, Censorship, Charter of Rights and Freedoms Breaches, Freedom of Speech, Politically Correct Madness


Imagine it... a school district, supposedly in charge of educating our children, deems the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms to be “inappropriate”. No, I am not making this up. Prince Rupert School District No. 52 recently banned teachers from wearing a T-shirt with “2(b) or not 2(b)?” on the front, and the text of section 2 of the Charter on the back: 2(a) … [Read more...]

Arthur Topham & RadicalPress.com Hate Crime Trial: Freedom of Speech Legal Case Update

  [powerpress]   On Wednesday, December 19, 2012 Arthur Topham was back in the Quesnel, BC, Court house for his latest attempt at a bail hearing. The regular Judge presiding over Arthur’s case was unable to attend so a female judge, M. Church, heard the application instead.
