San Antonio Animal Care Services to stop deleting critical social-media comments

San Antonio’s embattled Animal Care Services department will no longer delete negative comments from its social media pages, the City Attorney’s Office said this week. The decision comes a week after free-speech watchdog the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE) sent a letter to ACS accused it of violating the First Amendment. As a government entity, the city department is barred from deleting critical comments from its social media forums, FIRE argued.
