AMENDMENT

*Edit*

Of COURSE I can't edit the title.....sigh......

I guess it's no longer the property of "The People"....

all felonies block candidates from running for office. a hefty fine does more to discourage people.
this bill is a further restriction of freedom of speech worse than dr. woodrow wilson's palmer raids.
this is a solidification of state power inside a fascist superstructure. this is too slippery~slide bad.

They want to take away the God given Constitutional right of the citizens to protest alltogether, not to mention all the other Constitutional rights.

They believe that "they" are the keepers of our rights. When they are inherent, just by the fact of being human. F-them. this land is our land and we will damn well exercise our rights. I am sick of the complacency and ignorance. This eternal vigilance does not exist anymore. We talk the talk but, only a handful will stand up. Most of you mundanes will walk through the scanners and at most, give the TSA a dirty look. I am not saying march on Washington, I am saying, stand up in a calm reasoned fashion, ANYTIME a government op gets in your face and you know them to be wrong based on the constitution.. Day to day, in and out, you HAVE to stand up. We all want RP as president but, what happens if he is not? Gonna hide until '16? That is is what half of the people here did after the '08 loss.

I guarantee that, most of these people we quote from will not make a stand.

yup...this isn't just gov't bldgs...its anywhere...

B) of a building or grounds where the President or other person protected by the Secret Service is or will be temporarily visiting;

It's not protesting, but entering closed or restricted areas, i.e. idiots who jump fences they shouldn't jump, etc.

disruption could be protesting, yelling out loud, many things....

You can't really be that naive and/or bad with reading comprehension, can you? Obviously this was some sarcasm that I missed the tip-off, as you couldn't possibly believe something so absurd.

This goes right along with the speech jamming gun that has recently been announced.

Does anyone else connect dots?
Free speech is targeted.

You think SOPA was stopped?
I think it was delayed a bit,, only to resurface under another name,, or be written into another bill when no one is looking.

And though I am thankful for delay,,I expect the Agenda to continue.

It's slipping between their fingers so their natural response is to squeeze tighter

nm I read it closer.
