i am more afraid of people who are afraid.

why is it that everying thinks that some sort of enevitable police state is coming and someone is forcing it on you?

last i checked, the government represented the will of the people. laws are often repealed or ruled unconstitutional and generally speaking each party who comes to office runs on the most popular platform possible... which if things goes to far, usually involves undoing or reversing what was done by the previous party.

THAT is how the system works. Its been working well for hundreds of years.
Bush and Jerry Falwell CANNOT do anything that does not withstand the test of the will of the people.

People in the US Government cannot arbitrarily stop porn. They can however make a logical arguement to the people that a child should not be able to go to a public library and see a 13 year old drunk girl fucking a Greate Dane. They can argue that there is too much access to free porn for minors. We dont tolerate it anywhere else in society... but people want to say it is ok on the adult web

If people are truly concerned about "losing something", then they should start doing something about it. You cant sit back passively and say "look what they are going to do to me"... then complain when it happens.

if you beleive that the government ultimately wants to read your brainwaves and record your thoughts, then you may want to consider living somewhere where that is not likely to happen.

HERE HERE!

Thank you, JR for saying that for us! I was only going to quote a few lines, but figured what the hell...
