Maybe I will participate in the protest as well. I am from Russia, but any law passed in the USA unfortunately influences all of us. 2012/1/17 Jörn Nettingsmeier <nettings(a)folkwang-hochschule.de> -- Louigi Verona http://www.louigiverona.ru/

If yet today, this thing snowballs to essentially shut down the access to anything, and that AFAIAC should include the MSM news media's sites AND google, at midnight tonight, and leave it down for 24 hours, I think that would demonstrate to the idiots (and that is the correct term for those who are in the MAFIAA's pockets) that they truly know not what they are doing. SOPA has been killed in the senate, but the house version, PIPA is still very much alive. Find out how your reps voted on it, and replace the ones who voted aye when they next stand for the office. Whether the bill passes or not makes little difference, we do not need people who think like that representing us, simply because they are not representing us when they cast the aye vote. If we do not reclaim our government, "of the people, by the people, for the people" according to our Constitution & Bill of Rights, then Thomas Jefferson will be proven 100% correct. See my .sig, we are well past the soap, and straddling the ballot and jury boxes right now. If we don't fix it with the ballot, the jury box will become un-available since they, on the path they are headed now, will legislate it out of existence, possibly within my remaining lifetime. That leaves us the last box. Prepare yourselves accordingly. Cheers, Gene -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
