An Appeals Court wisely strikes down a longstanding attempt by the federal government to do what it should never be doing: deciding what is acceptable speech and what isn’t. “Federal Circuit Court of Appeals Finds First Amendment Applies to Trademarks and Rules that ‘Disparaging’ Cannot Be Used to Deny Expressive Trademarks Like ‘Stop Islamisation of […]
Tennessee openly promotes Islam: 7th graders made to recite Islamic statement of faith
More Islamic dawah in Tennessee: The Maury County School District skips chapters on the Rise of Christianity and Judaism, but spends three weeks on Islam, and expressly instructs students to write and recite the Shahada, the Islamic profession of faith, by which one becomes a Muslim.

It is astonishing that the Trademark Office would reject our trademark because the concept of resisting Islamization is supposedly demeaning to Muslims, when millions of Muslims in Egypt last year successfully stood up against Islamization and threw off the Muslim Brotherhood regime.

Final Brief Filed in Appeal to USPTO”s Denial of “Stop Islamisation of America” Trademark
The quest for justice continues. It’s noteworthy that millions of Muslims can fight against Islamization in Egypt, but to do so here is “bigoted.” “Final Brief Filed in Appeal to USPTO”s Denial of “Stop Islamisation of America” Trademark,” from the American Freedom Law Center, December 19: Washington, D.C. (December 19, 2013) “” The American Freedom […]
Washington Square News: “Have we taken free speech too far?”
Washington Square News is the student newspaper of New York University, but it is editorially and financially independent from the university, and has a circulation of about 60,000 in lower Manhattan — one of the nation’s foremost epicenters of the far Left.
