KEEP IT UP!!!!

Its a huge inconviniance but it basicly shows what the internet will be if this Bill is passed.

Stormy · Jan 18, 2012 5:06 PM

Agreed. I just sent an email to congress through the reddit blackout.

I'm kind of disappointed facebook isn't doing anything, though.

RangerOfIthilien · Jan 18, 2012 5:12 PM

I agree with Stormy and Clock-la. I've signed the reddit and Google petitions.

I signed. I know It's not really gunna pass since this goes against A LOT of things in the constitution. But whatever.

A Guy · Jan 18, 2012 9:57 PM

Signed. I think of the book 1984 when I think of SOPA. If we let the government censor the Internet, what's next?

For my protest against soap, I haven't bathed for almost a week!

Well, that's just fricking great. I heard from my friend. It passed. That's it. I'm moving to another country. Not kidding.

Latias fan · Jan 19, 2012 1:31 AM

^I call Bull**** on that one.

I'm fairly sure the bill won't pass. And of course I'm completely against it like just about everyone else is.

Yeah, like that'll do much? Doesn't matter where you live in the world; the fact is that the grand majority of sites on the internet are hosted in the US and they're equally under such jurisdiction (the webhosts would have to take the majority of the responsibility and from that point on they'll have to enforce strict rules on their sites to stay away from trouble). The bill is bad for everyone...

Crap. I should've bought an M1 Carbine before all this crap.
Now I need to figure out who to shoot on top of that.

AR15 is cheaper, easier to buy, more effective, and much more modern.

Swaffy · Jan 19, 2012 5:06 PM

Yeah, but I really like WWII weapons. And no ... not because of video games.
I like old cars too. But you're right, an AR-15 is cheaper and more customizable.

Hickok45 (on YouTube) has an AR-15 with a 300 AAC Blackout upper.
