“GIVING AWAY CONTROL OF THE INTERNET OR ANY PART OF IT IS SHEER LUNACY", JIM ROBINSON
(Vanity)

Posted on 09/26/2016 11:46:33 PM PDT by The Westerner

Several days ago, I pinged JimRob to ask his opinion of turning ICANN (internet domain name registry) over to Obama's soulmates, countries that hate America for its individualism and proud history, Jim answered with one line, quoted in the title. There is a way to block the transfer by contacting these Congressmen and demanding they stop the transfer on Oct. 1.

Folks we have 3 days before it is too late, please consider making just one phone call—more if you can... "Protecting Internet Freedom Act" Senate Bill 3031 House Resolution 5418

Without Drudge or Free Republic, how will we communicate?

Look, there is no way in hell we can Legally Censor the Internet, and we really need to crack down on dissidents, you know all you peasant serfs demanding freedom, so If we Give the Internet Away, our Muslim Friends can then Restrict the Internet to our liking. Got It!

During these tense days of spiralling end of the Obama administration it is only normal to be stressed as we await the inauguration of Donald Trump as our new president.

Better days are ahead so together lets put aside our online animosity, join hearts and attitudes and pray for the coming days.

Let’s not antagonize each other OK?

When you snap at someone and call them a troll without justification, it only makes you look bad. Your temper tantrum is not a reflection on me. Your suggestion to call on local officials to block the transfer of the Internet only makes you look stupid. The people who read your comments are not accountable for the things you say.

I understand your sentiment, but I am asking people to take a moment and make an effort to effect a change—not just comment that things are useless.

I have spoken to both Cruz and Duffy’s offices and they are truly concerned and working very hard to keep our internet free and in the United States.

As they say, we get the government we deserve and if Washington got hundreds of calls, could make a difference. As it is they usually don’t...

This is important those who value open internet access like Freepers, and I hope that you consider taking the same amount of time you took reading thread and writing your post and contact Mitch McConnell or Harry Reid’s office.

“My strategy is always to entice people to [Control A, copy paste] and keep a copy of everything at once — quickly.”

Arthur, you’re a champ, but can you translate that into plain English?

Thanks.

TEXAS-go nowhere calling DC or Houston to reach Senator Cornyn but Austin was good. The guy there said he will put 3034 in the must pass bill.

Governments, particularly those run by control freaks like 0vomit and his ilk, are terrified of freedom. The internet gives freedom to people in ways that the government cannot control and this terrifies them.

Keep the internet out of government hands.

Thanks for that, but I still have no idea what Arthur’s comment means.

My father rode with George Patton. When I'm old and dying, I'll be able to say “I rode with that sonofabitch Jim Robinson”.

FReepers know the score. But if we cede the fight because the statists are winning, then we deserve to lose everything. Either you fight or give up.

Last night, for the first time in my life, the thought crossed my mind that I couldn't stand listening to Comrade Hillary for 4 years, and like the leftists concluded, “I'm going to move to another country”! But where? The world still looks to the USA as the bastion of freedom. There's really nowhere to go.

So we'll just do what we can, each in our own way, mostly to satisfy our consciences. Evil can only win when good men do nothing.

Thanks, Arthur.

Interestingly, when telephoning Congressmen just now with my phone number blocked, I received the “all circuits are busy, try again later”. When I unblocked the number I got through!

Left a message at McConnell’s local office. Washington DC office won’t take messages. So I filled out a contact form on his website with my message.
