Former Gov. George Pataki made a dramatic lunge for publicity in the GOP’s 2016 primary race with a Twitter-broadcast demand that he be arrested by Attorney General Loretta Lynch.
We must declare war on radical Islam. @LorettaLynch I’m not edging toward violent speech, I’m declaring we kill them. Go ahead, arrest me.
Lynch made it easy for Pataki — who has approximately zero percent of the GOP’s primary vote — by suggesting Thursday that she would arrest people who criticize the ideology of orthodox Islam. “When we talk about the First amendment we [must] make it clear that actions predicated on violent talk are not American. They are not who we are, they are not what we do, and they will be prosecuted,” she said at the Thursday fund-raiser for a radical Muslim advocacy group.
However, her phrase — “actions predicated on violent talk” — is vague, and may refer to actions, not statements.
Lynch’s revolutionary or incoherent approach to free speech, however, is a pretty much what her boss wants. In 2012, for example, President Barack Obama used a speech at the United Nation’s General assembly to insist that “The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam.”
Maybe former New York Gov. Pataki just has to take his criticism up a notch — criticize Mohammad! — to get Obama’s attention.

easy for him to say, he is part of the ruling political class, like hillary clinton, biden, boehner and the rest of the traitors he has no concern for they are never arrested, for they are the Political Ruling Class.

True. He could walk right down Broadway carrying a full-auto AK,and while the NYPD WOULD arrest him,he would be quietly released with an apology and hit with a fine some DNC contributor would be more than happy to pay for him to make the story go away.
A regular denizen of NYC would get mandatory jail time for carrying a unloaded 22 Derringer.
As I have written on other threads on LF,Diane Fineswine has a NYC CCP, and isn't even a citizen. Harry Connick Jr,whose father used to be the Dim mayor of New Orleans, was arrested trying to board a airliner at JFK while carrying a 9mm semi-auto,and despite being a citizen of Louisiana he was released with an apology,and his 9mm was returned to him. Find ONE case of a regular citizen being treated this way in NYC
Pete, we are no longer a nation of equal justice under the law, we are now an oligarchy with one set of rules for the ruling political class and it's minions and masters and one set for you and me, the serfs.
and another set for the inner city welfare slaves.
