Anyway, this proposed legislation is a non-issue IMO. | |

 |  |  |  openbox9Premium join:2004-01-26 japan kudos:2 | Re: Keeping out.. How is it an issue? How is your privacy (which doesn't really exist, IMO) affected by this proposed legislation? Honest question, because there's nothing in the draft legislation that attacks your perceived privacy. The intent of this legislation is to enable easier sharing of classified threat information with the private sector to help protect our nation's critical communications infrastructure. | |

 |  |  |  |  | | Re: Keeping out.. So why isnt it being discussed openly? | |

This information is going to become law if it gets the votes, as such it cannot be kept secret. -- [65 Arcanist]Filan(High Elf) Zone: Broadband Reports | |

|
 | | Terrible So in this democracy, lawmakers can decide our fate behind closed doors.
Eventually, I hope we as citizens will stand up and regain control of this roller coaster. | |
|
 |  openbox9Premium join:2004-01-26 japan kudos:2 | Re: Terrible No, this is a committee marking up the language. I'm sure you can watch the vote (if it actually gets that far) on CSPAN if you'd like. | |
|
 |  | | That is the mistake everyone makes. We are not a democracy, we are a Republic. We vote in a person who we hope will act in our interest. The problem is we have moved from Republic to oligarchy . It will continue to get worse unless people wise up, and given the viewership that Honey BooBoo had, and the fact that I saw something call Myrtle Manor on The Learning Channel, I figure it is more or less a foregone conclusion. -- I voted for Snoopy! | |

We simply need to arrest the so called law makers as they are writing treasonous laws in flagrant violation of the Constitution which is still legally the Supreme Law of the Land.
Then we dont need to bother with going to the Supreme Court as the laws are illegal to begin with.
However we need some stand up individuals in LE to get on it a.s.a.p. probably the Sheriff's as they actually have jurisdiction over the Feds in nearly all areas. -- Team Discovery | |

 | | I wonder how long it will take, and what will be the tipping point event, that finally exposes our government for what it is. We are not, and never have been, a democracy or republic. We have always been a plutocracy - rule by the wealthy. The "government" is merely the shell game by which wealth is transferred to the coffers of the already wealthy, the vast majority of citizens are kept placid and entertained, and "legal" processes are developed to silence dissent.
We need another civil war. | |
