They don’t feel a ‘need’ to “protect” us. They feel the need to “control” us.
If you look at that list, the repubs on there want to hang on to their seats by any means possible and that includes going against the constitution. Americans are awakening and that is due, in large part, to the ‘free exchange’ of ideas and information on the internet. Their reasoning is, kill it so we can’t monitor what it is they are doing and will not be able to inform others that might not know.
The Post office is under attack as well. That entity has pissed away billions and has been running at a loss for years. Now Saturday deliveries are on the chopping block and who knows what other days they may cut in the future. What a wonderful opportunity for the government to shut it down or cripple it to where it is no longer useful.
Communication is vital to a free people and that’s the problem.
This is all designed to keep us oblivious to their treasonous acts.
YES!!! EXACTLY!!!
“If you look at that list, the repubs on there want to hang on to their seats by any means possible and that includes going against the constitution.”
Copyright and Patent law IS part, from the beginning, of the Constitution.
“Americans are awakening and that is due, in large part, to the free exchange of ideas and information on the internet”
Which will not be changed by this law, if you actually understood it.
The law is not about denial of free speech, not about blogging on and excerpting things you or other have read, not about anything in the manner of how outfits like the FreeRepublic operate.
The “every thing in society is the property of every one in society” crowd (a VERY Marxist idea), and their fear mongering has some very uneducated “Conservatives” seeing conspiracies of censorship where none exist.
“Communication is vital to a free people and thats the problem.”
Which says NOTHING meaningful or relevant ABOUT THIS BILL.
