seriously how can you rake on other countries for denying freedom of speech in one topic and complain about Ron Paul being censored in the media and SOPA/PIPA in other ones and complain about your government
literally all posters in this topic going ''MERICUH' right now do this
are you bipolar?
Uh, the media can choose to talk about whoever they want. We are complaining that they choose to ignore RP, which is perfectly legal, but still extremely shady and wrong.
SOPA/PIPA were shocking because they were clearly against the 1st amendment, but they didn't pass, so F YEAH MURCAH for that. The NDAA passed completely unopposed though, which is pretty disgusting, but the fact is that our government right now is trying really hard to undermine civil liberties and the Constitution, so we do have some pretty critical problems. Hopefully soon this terrorist scare will die out entirely and people will realize that we have to get our liberties back.
And it's actually getting worse because now when the US fails to pass something in Congress... they just go as Europe for permission instead, which makes absolutely no sense, and is definitely not legal. You guys had better fight ACTA as much as we did SOPA/PIPA.
Still, we are better than any country out there, so F YEAH MERCA.
