Wal-Mart: Stop Stomping On Our Free Speech!

First there was Wal-MartSucks.Com, a Web site created by a private citizen to criticize Wal-Mart. It caught the eye of executives in the giant corporation who unsuccessfully tried to close down the site down for four years.

Now Wal-Mart is doing it again. This time it is using legal tactics to intimidate a Web site operator and try to close down a Web site called walqaeda.com because it also is critical of the corporation.

Wal-Mart, lawyers and their vast resources are attempting to bully and silence critics across America. But free speech - on the Internet and off - is critical to us all.

Send a letter to Wal-Mart telling them to to stop stomping on free speech!

Big corps always flex their legal muscles.

Did you hear about when McDonalds tried to force some woman in Scotland to change the name of her sandwitch shop?

Big corporations are always fussing about their image. And they frequently end up looking like asses. These kinds of legal harrassments always backfire, when they are publicised. Thank you for publicising this one.

 

Ever watched one of Walmarts mass employee pep rallies. I have we have a huge warehouse here where they do it once a week. It's an eye opener. Fascism at it's most robust. But here in the states we call it capitalism...who would have thought it.
