“Defeating this is a victory for free speech. Sad to see how big money and corporate greed can work to curb free speech if we the masses are less vigilant.”
Social History: More “Nazi” like laws from the U.S. Government to shut down the internet. Call your representatives today and complain to the neo-Nazis that are ruining the USA. What do United States Chamber of Commerce and the Motion Picture Association of America have in common? These groups are trying to shut down the internet and are the lobbying group behind this Nazi/American law.
Are Christopher J. Dodd (CEO of the Motion Picture Association of America) and Thomas J. Donohue (CEO of the US Chamber of Commerce) a modern day version of Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels? They would be very comfortable with Hitler’s philosophy regarding freedom of speech.
Master propagandist of the Nazi regime and dictator of its cultural life for twelve years, Joseph Goebbels would be very comfortable in Washington help shut down the internet.
Hollywood backed Lamar S. Smith (R-TX) right-wing congressman is behind the bill. He is known to believe in strong censorship and curtailing of all privacy laws. Rep. Lamar Smith, whose congressional district in Texas encompasses the cropland and grazing land stretching between Austin and San Antonio, might seem an unlikely ally for Hollywood on Internet piracy. Smith, a Republican Tea Party backer, is from an old South Texas racist family and earned a perfect “A+” rating from the National Rifle Association. He is a master backer of fines for any “indecent” broadcasts and wants the network controlled.
Imagine a World – Without Free Knowledge – For over a decade, informational websites have spent millions of hours building the largest encyclopedia in human history. Right now, the U.S. Congress is considering legislation that could fatally damage the free and open Internet.
The Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), also known as House Bill 3261 or H.R. 3261, is a bill that was introduced in the United States House of Representatives on October 26, 2011, by House Judiciary Committee Chair Representative Lamar S. Smith (R-TX) and a bipartisan group of 12 initial co-sponsors.
The bill, if made law, would expand the ability of U.S. law enforcement and copyright holders to fight online trafficking in copyrighted intellectual property and counterfeit goods. Presented to the House Judiciary Committee, it builds on the similar PRO-IP Act of 2008 and the corresponding Senate bill, the PROTECT IP Act.
California Congressional Representatives Mary Bono Mack and Howard Berman were major forces behind the bill. They were directly responsible for trying to curtail freedom of speech. Bono Mack and Berman are political hacks who should be voted of office.
America is being taken over by endless neo-Nazi like laws to eleminate all freedom. Take the USA back from the corrupt government in Washington.
Let your voices be heard.
