Infowars.com reports: After one strike was removed earlier in the week, YouTube hit the Alex Jones Channel with a third strike for a video that had already been appealed and restored.

In the video, Jones clearly explains how the victims of the Parkland shooting were not “crisis actors”.

YouTube’s flagging system is clearly being abused in a flagrant effort to shut down Infowars following a public campaign by CNN.

This sets a horrific precedent for free expression and the First Amendment and YouTube is in direct violation of the Communications Decency Act in adopting this approach.

By failing to remain politically neutral, YouTube (Google) is in violation of the Communications Decency Act.

This removes their immunity & makes them legally responsible for user content.

We must lobby lawmakers to pressure them on this relentlessly.https://t.co/0x0rBguNlY

Hi, @TeamYouTube – can you explain why this @CNN video of their reporter bullying/harassing an old lady outside her home for posting memes doesn't violate your policy on bulling & harassment?

Thank you.https://t.co/QCXD4MwcVC pic.twitter.com/ft21lvxo3n
