As it stands today, Ron Paul will be getting my vote next year.  He will likely be running independent ot libertarian.
Why are you such a stupid asshole?
Would you really like to know?
Well pay your fee remove your clothes and Yvette will show you how
You went to school where you were taught to fear and to obey, be cheerful, fit in, or someone might think you're weird
Life can be perfect
People can be trusted
Someday, I will fall in love; a nice quiet home of my very own
Free from all the pain
Happy and having fun all the time
It never happened, did it?

Both the NDAA and the Patriot Act are a disgrace

 :agreed:

Obamacare is too because it's the first time that the government got so arrogant as to require that people buy something for merely existing.

Just wait for SOPA.
After that is passed we won't be able to get the truth.

How so??

I don't feel comfortable with Ron Paul as commander-in-chief.

He doesn't seem to have a firm grasp of foreign policy.

His isolationist attitudes are founded in naivete.

Doesn't matter who's in office. Politicians are marionettes.



Quote from: Sir Les
Well here you are given a lot of rope. We are pretty easy going. We are saying "OK this is a little community and we are not easily offended. We are not going to moderate you and will let you be expressive and out going" IS that saying "Please come in and treat this place like a toilet and shit everywhere because we love it!"?
No it is not.

Agreed. Bloody naive. And isn't really as rational as he makes himself out to be.

He is a creationist after all.

"We the People"?  Sounds socialist.

Kiss internet freedom goodbye along with google, youtube, facebook and basically anything indirectly/directly hosting "copyrighted material" if that passes.

How so??

Because it doubles as the ultimate censorship tool. Here's the thing, there's always a guaranteed chance that someone will post something copyright infringing. SOPA goes further than DMCA and makes it a criminal felony to host or even link to copyrighted material without permission of it's owners.

This would in a sense allow corporations/governments to shut down websites or even take legal action those who criticize them and the website hosting the content as well. Since critics tend to use logos, symbols, images, texts of their target, all they need to do is find one tiny thing that's not ironclad covered by fair use to take you down.

This would essentially shut down or ruin sites like Google, Youtube, Twitter, Facebook, anything that risks having copyrighted material posted (like a image from your favourite show) on it by an unauthorized party (as in you, the user). They would have to filter everything posted/queried on their sites to avoid themselves being financially isolated, held criminally liable or be blocked on a ISP level.

This can be used to even shut down or force heavy self-censorship on messageboards like here, WP, AFF, etc. So it's very, VERY bad news.

And one last thing, it will affect international traffic too, so if you let's say routing through the US to access something in Canada that's blacklisted in the U.S ISP infrastructure (as the domain registrar is in the US), the route will not resolve and you'll be blocked from accessing that site. So Americans shouldn't be the only ones worried about this.

The only methods of evasion would be knowing the direct IP address of the site, or somehow re-route data so it never enters the US at any point. If the site is within the U.S you're screwed.

Existence actually has two broad meanings despite its apparent meaningless. The constant reconciliation of all its parts, and the conservation of any closed system as a whole.

Morality can be extrapolated from these meanings to make these two commandments of godless morality: 1). Be in harmony with one another and 2). Care for the environment.
