Verizon Wireless

Catholic News Agency (CNA) reports that Verizon Wireless has chosen to block text messages sent by the hard-core pro-abortion group NARAL. To quote CAN:

In turning down the program, Verizon told NARAL that it does not accept programs
from any group that ‘seeks to promote an agenda or distribute content that, in
its discretion, may be seen as controversial or unsavory to any of our
users.’

NARAL, of course, is claiming its right to “free speech” is being violated. However, the last time I read the First Amendment it said “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech . . .” Seems to me, in this case, NARAL, doesn’t have much of a leg to stand on. It goes without saying, that’s not their only error.

Makes me want to switch to Verizon.
