I expect censorship from right wingers who do not allow freedom of speech or expression when it goes against their beliefs, but I do not expect censorship from so-called liberals/progressives.

I understand the corporate mainstream media has a strong bias in favor of Israel and serves as a propaganda tool of the Israeli lobby. When Israel recently attacked a humanitarian ship in international waters and, in the process, murdered an American citizen with 4 gun shots to the head at close range, the American media ignored the story. And this was just what they've always done...

Even cable networks like MSNBC invited Israeli Govt officials to come on and spin their propaganda while never inviting anyone to represent the aid workers who were attacked.

It is a sad situation that in America today it is politically incorrect ( even among progressives) to express anti-zionist opinions. One is apparently allowed to speak about Israel only if one speaks in obsequious and unquestioning support of Zionism.

With 20% of the vote counted, 58% of voters in Fremont, Nebraska are supporting the racist law designed to target Hispanics for profiling.

Fremont is 95% white and has a Hispanic population of 4%--most of who are legal citizens...yet they feel compelled go on a mission to persecute a America's current favorite minority to hate.

Jobs? They have a very low unemployment rate-much lower than the average so it's not like they are reeling from lack of jobs and layoffs

Illegal workers? Most are hired by the Hormel meat packing plant which is outside the city so they would not be affected by the new law.

The city has prepared plans to cut services and raise taxes to pay for the legal fees when the lawsuits begin. The Nebraska chapter of the ACLU has already announced it will file a lawsuit.

Similar laws were passed in Farmers Branch, TX and in a small town in PA and both were struck down as unconstitutional after very costly legal battles.
