Very disturbing but not unexpected.

Wow that is just crazy.  USA we will try to stop you from protesting, hearing other points of view on the net at least and  limit your rights to bargain the terms of your labor.  Land of the free is truly becoming a joke.

We simply have access to information which is too sensitive to be public.

With all the copyright infringement, this is clearly just an effort to enforce already existing laws.

This can also protect citizens from harmful materials. Minors should not be exposed to snuff flicks, and it can put a halt to to other offensive forms of media.

Think of this legislation as a protective older brother, who loves you very much.

I really can't tell if you are being sarcastic or serious. My respect for you just went out of that window.

Very well. I must retain my statement back. I understand now, Buckethead, and I apologize for my remarks.

It's always right to respond to idiocy with common sense. My idiocy was just an act. (this time, anyway)
