RMN IMPENDING DOOM

author=kentona

This bill has ALREADY BEEN PASSED! TWICE! First as CDA or the Communications Decency Act back in 1996 and then later it was passed as COPA or the Child Online Protection Act.

Getting passed in CONGRESS however doesn't mean squat, because ultimately it's up to the SUPREME COURT to decide and, well, they ~already~ curb stomped the last two incarnations so it's not like this is gonna be any different. It's blatantly unconstitutional, just like the LAST TWO that were passed.

First it was "decency", then it was "won't someone think of the children?" and now we've got "scary pirates" in the latest incarnation, but it's all the *SAME* freakin bill, just slightly reworded and with a new acronym... CDA... COPA... and now SOPA. I mean, what, do they think the Supreme Court isn't gonna notice it's the EXACT SAME BILL THEY ALREADY BOOT STOMPED?!

*epic face palm*

What an incredibly stupid waste of tax payer money.

Hurr de durr, have you all been living in a cave or are you so young you were still sucklin on yer mama's teat back in 1996? Tha'fawk you people have a short attention span. I mean, hurr de durr, Blue Ribbon Campaign anyone? Surely I couldn't have been the ONLY person on the Internet back in 1996. o_O

I don't remember these! But then I was 15 at the time (and all 15 year olds are ignorant, right? As a rule?)
