Background: I'm about to make a cell phone payment and notice my balance is lower than it should be. Allstate took a payment from my account. Problem? I use State Farm. Bottom line is, Allstate just took money from my checking account and I have no relationship whatsoever with the company. Yes, they can (and do) do that. It happens all the time to all sorts of people all over the US.

The debate over Facebook's decision to allow Holocaust deniers to continue spewing their vitriol has many upset. The idea is that such speech should be censored in the private space of Facebook. Some agree with European laws that make such conversations, even suggesting the numbers may be inaccurate, a crime punishable by imprisonment.
