It is very very clear from this article that both the Government and the RIAA believe that it is OK to selectively prosecute and imprison people to "send a message" to the sheeple. The law that will be invoked in this case, however, has nothing to say about sending messages and everything to say about going to jail if you trade mp3s over the Internet.

My question for the Members of Congress is this:

ARE YOU WILLING TO IMPRISON ALL VIOLATORS OF THE LAWS YOU PASS?

If the answer is yes, then start building prisons for millions of people and then answer this question:

ARE YOU WILLING TO SEND YOUR TEENAGE SON OR DAUGHTER TO JAIL FOR TRADING MP3S?

If the answer to this is yes, then I want to have a few words with your kids.

If the answer is no to either question then get rid of the law, since you have no intention of enforcing it.
