Legal Question in Discrimination Law in Florida

Sueing a website.

I want to know if I have a case against a few websites. On websites like face book, youtube, and yahoo, they all promote no racism and nothing offensive on their sites. But there are hundreds of thousands of anti-Semitic and anti-Israel videos on youtube that are not censored or taken down these are viewd by millions of people and spread more hatred. There are hundreds of thousands of pages on face book that promote the same thing. The same is for Yahoo. There are people like me who complain about these things to the owners of the sites, and they respond with replies such as ''they are legitimate political views'' and ''we do not see them as offensive or racist in any way.'' Much of the things that are on the site are that of which the Nazis used during World War II to dehumanize Jews. I want to know if I have any case against any of those sites allowing racism and hate on their public sites even though it is against their rules.

Re: Sueing a website.

Please refer to the First Amendment of the US Constitution. This protection is granted to most speech, even that which is abhorrent or offensive.
