This is an interesting turn of events. What are your thoughts on groups left, right or center using social media for political purposes?

They're more worried about censoring nipples and conservative opinions than they are criminals and terrorists.

The glaring hypocrisy of "the left." Social media that allows for the recruitment of murderers and violence is fine, as long as no one is offended or has their feelings hurt.

Like it or not one of the bedrock foundations of our country is freedom of speech. We may not like ISIS and other groups using social media to do horrible things but we are a nation of laws and we have to abide by them regardless of whether they abide or not. Same goes with law enforcement. Many criminals use our laws against us, but we accept that to ensure we are safe but not in a police state.
Plus, it might be a little known fact, but this is certainly not the first time terrorists have used social media. A certain terrorist group used social media almost 244 years ago in a little place called Boston. It was the Sons of Liberty against the British Government at the Boston Tea Party.
Social media has been a tool used for political purposes for millennia. Stories such as the Iliad told by Greek story tellers all the way up to the beginning of the printed word and the advent of newspapers, all a form of social media for it's given time, have been used to rally one group against another especially in the political sense.
Plus two can play the social media game. We can also use social media against them.
