US has censored fundamentalist Muslim extremist material in concert with Twitter and Google since at least 2009.

Where were the free speech advocates back then? And why are they so vocal now that the extremists are a different skin color?

Twitter and Google are not government entities and can remove any content they want. That does not make the content illegal.
