1. Just a note on why this is important

It appears that Twitter may be censoring political opinion. They had already suspended the account @GuerillaDems for the Which Hillary Meme posts. Now they have suspended Jeanette's account and the twitter verse is not having it. Several hashtags in support of Jeanette have been launched only to be taken down quickly by Twitter.

What if this kind of censorship had happened in many of the Middle Eastern Countries during that one 'spring'?

In essence this is controlling political thought and speech, perhaps even under some pressure from the other side. Is this our country? I am finding it harder and harder to recognize it these days.
