    CISPA(Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act)..HERE Read through it, it has the same stink of government control in the name of "security". Would make it extremely easy to target websites or people who are speaking out against the government. These "acts" are getting more than old.

    Common sense is not a gift it's a curse. Those of us who have it have to deal with those that don't.... Be careful which toes you step on today, they might be connected to the foot that kicks your butt tomorrow. You can't scare me, I have children.

    What happened to free speech? Does that not apply to websites or criticism of the government? Whatever next, the Ministry of Truth? Downvoted: why?

      I don't know why they even bother to pass any more laws. Actually they can get rid of all laws except NDAA, and that is all they would need to keep the people in line.

        Freedom of speech only ever existed until people tried to use it.

            What's the difference between the U.S. and Iran? Iranians at least know they have no freedom.

                  Also, the ability of the government to spy on me at any time without me knowing reminds me of telescreens.

                    They must be paranoid schizophrenic. All that money wasted when all they needed was a mirror to find the boogeyman.
