Bill Killed: SOPA death celebrated as Congress recalls anti-piracy acts

January 20, 2012 21:33

I find it awesome that the USA can pass a bill that allows them to detain and torture anyone for any reason, assassinate anyone in any country, and basically kill whoever they want whenever they want for national security and no one gives a frig.... but when they try and pass a law protecting intellectual property, people freak the frig out.

Wil l you be so kind to make a huge and massive attack on all leading banks worldwide! Just smash them to the ground zero. Add to that all state secret services, will you?

If there is to be one World Government, I vote for Anonymous!

FBI has just been nine elevened by Anonymous!

USA is definitely not a superpower anymore (with its rating so badly and unrepairably downgraded). Russia is definitely still behind US, and cannot be a superpower, even though some believe it is on the raise. China is also well behind US (still, at least).

But the only superpower that now exists and acts is undoubtedly Anonymous!!! It is a superpower in the presence of which all other powers are trembling. A superpower that is virtual and elusive, but nonetheless amazingly efficient.

hacktivists, activists had nothing to do with this. neither did any of you alarmists, foaming at the mouth. simply a result of a majority of American citizens contacting their elected representatives collectively voicing one's own opinion. big money may have been pushing these bills, but, at the end of the day a million individual wallet's and votes do count. p.s. Anonymous is bogus, have yet to affect or effect my life. only winners are chinese companies making those stupid guy fawkes masks.

The main GOAL of SOPA is to Close RT (and such other sources), and hide the trueth from US-British-EU Audience, therefore they can brainwash them, as long as they want. US felt that thier BrainWashing Media is slowely breaking a part when thier is free internet and news like RT, and more and more People start to realize that they were owned by thier own Media.

Thank you RT for bringing the trueth ! I take my hat off for each Anonymus hack-tivist ! Thank you Anonymus for fighting for our rights of freedom ! we are all with you, and we will be spreading the trueth!

LONG LIFE FOR RT, ANONYMOUS, AND  FREEDOM ON THE INTERNET ! SPASIBO !

We need less laws, not more.  A 5th grader can tell a crime when they see one.  These kinds of laws usually end up protecting the real wrong-doers.  In the bigger picture, it looks like the oligarchy is getting ready for a GIABO, global insurrection against banker occupation.

YEARS  ago on British tv show "Connections," the host made a startling predictin that the internet would bring "us," closer to a truer rule by the people-AKA democracy.  The response " the people,"  gave to thier government in this first global reponse to oppression is truly historic with far reaching implications the ruling oligarchy I am most sure is most fearful.

The internet is the collective mind of humanity and we should all remenber the words chiseled in the entablature at the Jefferson moument in Washington D.C.
"I swear upon the altar of God, eternal hostility to every form of tyranny over the mind of man."
