Speech Police Investigate Posters

051908dangerousminorities.jpg
Remember those Family Guy-quoting racist posters noted a little bit ago?

Well, it appears they've spread outside of our little Internet circle? The city's official speech police, the Human Rights Commission, has launched an investigation into those posters!

KYW 1060 reports:

Nick Taliaferro, executive director of the Human Relations Commission, says its response is more like outreach than investigation: "We are not policemen. We don't go out and try to arrest people. What we do is try to proactively engage the community in ways that will resist that type of poisonous engagement of an otherwise very decent community. You won't find better people than you will find at Shiller and Almond Street." Taliaferro says the commission will look to see if the law was broken and if the poster had any effect beyond creating upset.

They are not policemen, yet they will look and see if the law was broken. Clearly, these posters aren't sanctioned city billboards -- someone has to pay with some time in jail.

Errr...who and what is the " Human Relations Commission"? Has some-one elected these...creatures? What purpose to they serve? Whose "rights" are they allegedly protecting? I known the idea that these young men, excersizing the First Amendment Rights, (The Constitution and the Bill of Rights are the ONLY authority I respect, and intend to obey) deeply troubles you - as well as the erstatz "Human Rights Commission" but I am more troubled by the fact that NONE of you paid wh0res bothers to address the FACTS on Black on White crime.

That's what I find to be offensive. KSS are RIGHT. Why are YOU so WRONG?

The "Human Rights" frauds see to be wholly interested in protecting the "rights" of Blacks to slaughter Whites.

Loving your race is only hateful and racist if you're white.

So White people are not allowed to perform the public service that the kwaps won't? informing White people about violent negroes and mestizos is their DUTY. I noticed that the jewsmedia says posting handbills on telephone poles is illegal but I noticed other handbills stapled onto the same poles. What about these? This is selective prosecution because the authorities don't like the message. Looks like the Commonwealth has turned into the Pennsylvania Soviet Socialist Republic.

The USSR has human rights commissions. Looks like Upper Darby will be the new capital of the Pennsylvania SSR.

The paper tiger top cop can say anything it wants. The fact is that these people did not violate any laws anymore than a person throwing newspapers hasn't. The messages are protected under the First Amendment of the United States Constitution chief. This guy sounds like st pete beach idiot police chief kimensky who also made false claims that the distribution of similar flyers was an illegal act.

What about the hate groups that are commiting crimes against Gay, Lesbian, and Transgender Citizens? It is outrage! This type of hate is a disgrace to our region and must be eliminated! When people learn to live togather and respect each other, the world will be a much better place.
Hate groups and skinheads must be banned and there racist speach as well .
Certain speach cant be acceptable in a multicultural America, white people just need to recognize and respect the new face of america cause it sure aint white no more.

It's only considered "hate speech" if Whites are advocating for their rights. The KSS are just using their First Amendment rights to educate White people. Doesn't the "Human Rights Committee" have more important issues to deal with?

It seems to me that the media and politicians are pursuing the KSS for pointing out valid issues!

One news report falsely claimed that the KSS were "violent racists"! What??? The KSS didn't murder any Law Enforcement personnel!

This is a classic case of the pot-calling-the-kettle-black!

There are a lot more postings of this type of flyers than just this one mentioned here in the news.I can say that with absolute certainty.

The "Speech Police"?? Am I in Russia?

What happened to freedom of speech? Just because some comments may be unpopular doesn't mean it is hate speech. Though I will say, the truth does sting sometimes.
