The Satanic Temple, an activist group based in Salem, Massachusetts, is threatening to sue Twitter for religious discrimination after one of its co-founders had his Twitter account permanently suspended.

Lucien Greaves, the Satanic Temple's co-founder and spokesman, said his Twitter account was permanently suspended without any notice after he asked his followers to report a tweet that called for the Satanic Temple to be burned down.

"We're talking to lawyers today," Greaves said Friday about whether he planned to take legal action.

    Well - I don't have a team. I'm a registered independent voter, because I despised the two parties pretty much equally when I registered to vote in 1974. Times change, and the parties have changed. Today, I still despise the Republicans just about as much as I did back then. But, I despise the Democrats much more than I did then. It's like the Republicans are the Pied Piper, taking a leisureley stroll to hell, while leading the ignorant children along. The Democrats, on the other hand, insist that we all ride a supercharged, turbocharged, quantum powered train to hell at hypervelocity.

    If I had to choose, I'd rather follow the pied piper. I'm in no hurry to get to hell. But, I refuse to choose, actually. I'm independent.

    Don't worry, you're definitely going to Hell all by your lonesome.
