Arizona Passes Sweeping Internet Censorship Bill...

Post by Ken »

So it begins...
http://www.infowars.com/arizona-passes- ... ship-bill/

"The state legislature of Arizona has passed a bill that vastly broadens telephone harassment laws and applies them to the Internet and other means of electronic communication.

The law, which is being pushed under the guise of an anti-bullying campaign, would mean that anything communicated or published online that was deemed to be “offensive” by the state, including editorials, illustrations, and even satire could be criminally punished."

Think about that for a bit...

Humby, Come clean...do you have a secret Gerald fetish? It is merely infatuation... Don't waste your time waiting on him... You can do better than him, now pull your panties up and get on with your life! :D :rotfl:

On the bill, Guys, that is quite serious... Way too broad and sets precedent for many things involving our beloved internet...

I would hope that this gets jacked up to the Supreme Count and gets knocked down.

Hi Guys & Dolls

I live in AZ, I'll let you know what I encounter as time passes..

Up front,, I am very Conservative and like just about everything My Girl Jan signs..
I surely dig the great Gun laws passed for freedom loving Americans and hopefully 1070
will be totally upheld by the Big Court..

If this bill Ken brought to our attention is as bad as you all fear well,,, I'll be Gripin & Yelling
right beside ya all..

My biggest concern right now is how do I stop Microsoft from yankin XP in 2 years..

It IS as bad as it seems. It is called freedom of speech. Freedom of speech that is now "censored".

EDIT: and not only censored, but I'll leave that to you all to research and see why it is "fear" from this.

Not a good thing at all. We’re going to wind up with 50 different censorships, with each state restricting access to what they deem as offensive. As wild as New Orleans sounds, strippers can’t show nipples. They have to wear pasties.

I see no reason in waiting for an innocent person to be punished before complaining about this bill.
