Who here made the suggestion for duct-tape over one's mouth?

[Cowlesy]

Drudge is covering it.

I remember hearing it here first.

[GreenCardSeeker]

I don't know what the Drudge story is, but there's been pictures of that floating around for years.

Kind of funny how illustrations of banned speech can end up being quite hot:

I don't recall. I do recall that I made a response to it, and now I can't find that. Did I find a memory hole?

How about everybody showing up to town halls with black tape over there mouths while the politicians spew their lies. I guarantee they would get freaked out and leave just as fast as if everyone was shouting at them.

[MsDoodahs]

Me why did I cause a problem?

Haven't read the thread yet...

Okay, WHEW Cowlesy you scared me to death, lol.

And that idea came from a RON PAUL FOR PRESIDENT video - I think MAYBE my favorite of all time:

OUR POWER, OUR RESPONSIBILITY

YouTube - Ron Paul Our Power Our Responsibility (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6SODAhbJdE)

Watching it now....

okay, nope, it isn't that one.

But I DO remember a photo of a young man with tousled hair and glasses, and duct tape over his mouth used in an RP video - that is where I got the idea - it is not original to me.

NO! YOU are one of the solutions! :D The duct tape is another excellent tactic! We need to pull out all the stops.

I am typing through tears, that one turns me into a water fountain every time I watch it.

:o

[pcosmar]

No tears here.
This has an entirely different effect on me.

Anger

Same for Ron Paul events that I was part of.

Seething rage. :mad:

I am glad that vid didn't fall down the memory hole.

My reaction was all of the above, tears of rage and frustration along with white hot anger.

[akihabro]

Is the duct tape a metaphor or realistically suppose to stop you from flapping your gums? I can move duct tape off my mouth enough with my tongue to say something.

[JoshLowry]

I hazily remember some kid putting duct tape over his mouth when I was in junior high.

I think he had chapped lips and it was not good when he tried taking the tape off.

Be careful. :)

Whoa, glad you posted this.. now that I have High Speed internet I can watch all this stuff.
MAN, that video gave me goosebumps, made me want to cry and throw something!
Thanks MsD!

[Optatron]

far from a new idea

many anti-censorship campaigns have used it
