Menino Tries To Ban Freedom of Speech in Boston
I was sitting in Faneuil Hall the other day and I had an hour to kill before my next meeting. So I turned on my laptop to see if there were any wireless networks that I could log onto. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the City of Boston actually offers free wi-fi access to people with laptops. But my joy quickly turned to rage when tried to log onto barstoolsports.com. Because instead of seeing the glorious Stool logo, I received an error message saying that this site had been banned by Mayor Menino because of questionable content. Let me ask you this; who the fuck is Menino to play god with what websites people want to visit? This is clearly a violation of the 5th Amendment or one of the amendments about free speech and all that shit. Listen it’s one thing to steal my news racks, but now they are going to try and ban my website from city grounds? Enough is enough. Menino better watch out. If he keeps pushing my buttons he may end up in a dog fight in the next election. El Pres for Mayor? I like the sounds of that. And I think a platform built on newsrack legislation and freeing www.barstoolsports.com would be pretty powerful.
