Complaint regarding the University of Utah Hospital and it's marketing department: Censored on Facebook, Permanently.

[copy of a complaint filed with the University of Utah]

September 23, 2015

Complaint regarding the University of Utah Hospital and it's marketing department: Censored on Facebook, Permanently.

Request this complaint be reviewed by the "complaint review" committee of the Hospital, and by whatever citizen-rights-advocacy person or group may exist within the University structure - any person or group who may advocate on behalf of citizens who've been wronged by University actions.

In violation of the First Amendment, in violation of my right as a patient and citizen to complain to and about the University, publicly, I have been blocked from any ability to post comments on the University of Utah Hospital's Facebook page, at https://www.facebook.com/pages/University-of-Utah-Hospital/102550626466923?fref=ts

Previously I posted copies of complaints on the Hospital's page regarding the Orthopedic Center unit of the Hospital.

Those posts were deleted by Hospital staff, in violation of the First Amendment.

My posts were labeled as "spam" by the marketing department of the Hospital (as per their comments to the University Office of Equal Opportunity).

My ability to post ANY comments at all on the Hospital's Facebook page has been blocked by Hospital staff.

A permanent black mark.

An attempt at retaliation in response to my Free Speech activities (my attempts to let the public know about problems with the University and with the Hospital, in a public forum).

----

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

"The right to petition government for redress of grievances is the right to make a complaint to, or seek the assistance of, one's government, without fear of punishment or reprisals."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_to_petition

Dr. David Petron and his staff have directly acted to attempt to punish me for making in-person during-visit complaints regarding their refusal to weigh me on a scale during my visit.

Clinic Manager Leslie Berg of the School of Dentistry has directly attempted to have me ejected from the School of Dentistry clinics in response to complaints filed about the school she works for, complaints filed with the University and with other relevant parties.

The Marketing department of the Hospital has directly attempted to have be barred from access to the Hospital Facebook page. They have labeled my posts as "spam," have labeled me a "spammer," have deleted my public posts complaining about the University Hospital and it's clinics, and they have permanently blocked my ability to post anything at all on the Hospital Facebook page.

These acts by the University are reprisals.

These acts by the University are retaliation.

The University has engaged in censorship.

The University Hospital has labeling my speech as "spam."

The University Hospital has labeled me, a patient & citizen, a "spammer."

The University Hospital does attempt to boot, block, and censor patients who complain about poor treatment. If complaints are made during an active visit, lower level staff summarily boot patients with zero due process and with no opportunity to speak with the doctor being seen that day (Orthopedic Center). If complaints are made after a visit to other parts of the University and to other relevant professional & accrediting bodies, University Hospital employees try & boot patients in response. From Leslie Berg: "We don't know why you would want to continue coming here?" - from the School of Dentistry Clinic Manager.

Are all these the appropriate actions for a governmental institution and for a University and for a hospital?

Clearly not!

They ARE the acts of an abusive institution bent on self-serving self-protection.

A "whack-a-mole" game IS engaged at the University when patients complain.

Your retaliatory acts are acts of punishment, and are reprisals.

Punishments directed at my family.

There are some good providers & managers at the University - usually most often on the "general practice" side of things. But there's also administrators, doctors, clinic managers, and medical students who root their daily work solely within the religious culture of Utah, where belief maintenance, heresy trials, and excommunication are all ready tools they have zero problem with using, using in their jobs as government employees.

These people haven't read the Constitution, and neither apparently have the legal staff for the University.

Sincerely,

Jonathan with Yanning, Carl, and Tina

p.s. Carl & Tina were both born at the University Hospital, if that means anything to you. My wife Yanning is a patient of the Hospital and it's clinics, it that means anything to you. Attempts to shut up and shut down my family will not succeed, regardless of the apparent sociopathic. theocratic, and dictatorial anti-Constitution inclinations of Hospital & University administrators. The Utah government is MY government, not your private club nor your personal enrichment device.

Liberal Socialist Democrats against Islam - yes we are here too

Video commentary:



Recently Geert Wilders visited Australia. What was the response? Violent protests & slander against Mr. Wilders. Funny how easy it is for Islam-apologists to throw stones, figuratively & literally against people who already have to live with round the clock security due to past & present threats from Islamists. Geert Wilders. Ayaan Hirsi Ali. Sam Harris. Danish cartoonists & editors.

Here's an article about Wilders' visit to Australia:
http://www.theglobalmail.org/feature/fact-checking-the-geert-wilders-road-show/562/

And here is my response to Eric Ellis' piece:

Ellis's article is a terribly inaccurate, prejudiced, and in my view a libel-ridden rant about Wilders. Guilt by association. Painting with a broad brush. All the things the reporter-writer may well claim to hate. Is the 'far right' in favor of leaving Islam and becoming atheistic? Are they in favor of gay or women's rights? Islamophobia? How about Scientologyphobia? Mormonphobia? Cultphobia? Or even Wildersphobia,  truthphobia, or factsphobia?

Using terms like Islamophobia, and the other abusive ad-hominem and guilt-by-claimed-association attacks in this article - it's a way of shutting the conversation down.

Should Islamic people leave Islam for atheism or maybe liberal Christianity? Would that make their lives better?

Examine the recent work of Sam Harris, and his book The Moral Landscape. In his book Harris advocates for comparing religions & world views on a scale that measures happiness & well being. Are women & men really happy if they are taught to fear human sexuality, where women are bagged from head to toe, and where young men are taught in a de facto way that the only way they can actually have a relationship with a woman is to engage in murderous jihad so that they can then have 72 virgins in the afterlife? Let's hope it's actually raisins instead of virgins. More info on that front from a former member of the Muslim Brotherhood:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxfo11A7XuA



Islam is not a race. It never has been a race. It's a religion, a meme set, and all meme sets deserve to be evaluated on their merits.

On 9/11 no Christian or Jew or Hindu flew planes into buildings in New York. On 7/7 not even a Scientologist or a Jehovah's Witness took similar actions. Ideas matter. Doctrine matters. History matters. Facts matter. And what people actually believe matters.

So, with Eric Ellis's rather petty, dismissive, and attacking-type article, he's attempted to blow a huge amount of smoke, all in attempt to be yet another apologist for Islam. But, the terrorists speak for themselves, and their world view can be accurately pulled directly from the Quran and from modern Islamic societies where young men & women are taught to fear normal human sexuality and to hate the outsider.

In additional to Australia Europe also has problems with allowing free speech & free thought. What is the status of free speech in Europe? Both the Organization for Islamic Cooperation (an international Islamic country organization), and the European Council consider racism to include taking smack about a religion - blasphemy laws essentially.

Winston Churchhill on Islam:

"How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property - either as a child, a wife, or a concubine - must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the faith: all know how to die but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome."

and some small progress: 'Insulting' to be dropped from section 5 of Public Order Act
http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2013/jan/14/insulting-section-5-public-order-act

We fought to save the EU countries from Hitler. But apparently they're still embracing some of his policies via outlawing the heart & roots of free speech. People in religions, particularly conservative religions like Islam & Mormonism, are in memetic prisons. Free speech is one key way to free these people, and pin headed politicians often don't understand that democracy & science & true progress depending on unhindered free speech & free though. Let there be a crucible, and let's work to get something very similar to the U.S. First Amendment enacted in the EU & elsewhere.

Other 9/11 liberals: Bill Maher, Christopher Hitchens, Salman Rushdie, & Sam Harris.

Found the following story today:

Israel condemns Zionism comments by Turkey's PM Erdogan
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-21628757

Even Turkey wants to elevate "Islamophobia" to the status of racism or genocide.

"If you say something which either offends me or which may cause me to change my mind, I get to punish you the same way as if you physically attacked me."

And Turkey is a member of the OIC.
