The 12 Year Old Conservative.

C.J. Pearson, the Georgia 12-year-old who became Internet-famous after posting a viral video criticizing President Barack Obama and his perceived weak stance toward the Islamic State group, or ISIS, now believes that he was targeted and kicked off Facebook for his political views.

Days after posting his video, which got almost 1.5 million hits, C.J. realized that he could no longer log on to Facebook and became frustrated and furious.

“The First Amendment is very clear. We have a right to express our opinions regardless of who might disagree. And to silence that voice is a violation of that amendment,” he said.

C.J. drew attention last week when heposted a video to You Tube in support of former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani and the former politician’s criticism of Obama. “If you loved America, President Obama you wouldn’t try to take away what hardworking Americans have worked for their entire lives,” the young boy said in his video.

He also praised Giuliani for “calling Obama out on his downright hatred of America,” adding, “I applaud him for his comments and definitely do hope that one day other people will get enough guts to speak out against your downright hatred for this country.” 

However, Facebook says that it removed the preteen from Facebook not because of his politics but, rather, because of his age. Facebook states that to join, you have to be at least 13 years old.

“I would consider that complete malarkey,” the 12-year-old countered. “Because in all honesty, there are many, many people younger than me who have a Facebook account.”

Still, the lack of access isn’t going to deter the young boy. “I will not stop here,” he said. “You cannot silence a voice that deserves to be heard. And I will continue to make as many accounts as possible.”

This little dude is obviously misguided, confused, and a little off. But he's also very astute, and any kid who shows an interest in current events, especially politics, deserves a pat on the back if he didn't agree with Rudy "my first wife is my cousin" Giuliani! I seriously doubt that he was kicked off Facebook because of his political views given the fact that practically every lunatic, political or otherwise has a Facebook page.

Hey kid! The next time you decide to break the rules make sure you don't draw attention to yourself. Being a 12 year old African-American boy who just happens to be a conservative and criticizes the president on Facebook, and sides with Rudy Giuliani is like being a talking unicorn on roller skates. No matter what it does you will see it and it will be heard.

I believe that young C.J. was coached. He's probably being used as a mouth piece for someone else who also urged him to accuse Facebook of conspiring against him.
