DOWN WITH SOPA!

Ok, so I'm sure you've all heard about the government censoring anything and everything that goes on the internet. I just want to get this out there: SOPA IS A VIOLATION OF OUR FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS! We have right to freedom of speech and of the press! Not allowing us to post certain thing online is a DIRECT VIOLATION. Do you really want to give the government the power to violate the SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT AMENDMENT IN THE BILL OF RIGHTS? The constitution is the very foundation of our country, and the first amendment is a huge part of that. Violating the first amendment like this is like taking a chunk out the the foundation of the building. It may not topple the building at first, but if it keeps up the entire thing will eventually crumble. CONTACT YOUR REPRESENTATIVES AND TELL THEM NO! I DON'T EVEN POST SWEAR WORDS ONLINE, YET EVEN I'M SAYING NO! I FIRMLY BELIEVE THIS IS A DIRECT VIOLATION OF NOT ONE, BUT TWO OF OUR FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS AND SHOULD NOT BE PUT INTO AFFECT.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe they're censoring swear words and such. They already censor swear words in music. Now it'll possibly everywhere on the internet. Where does it end? Right now they're censoring swear words. maybe next they'll censor violent themes, or sexual themes. then after that maybe they'll censor hateful things. That could lead to censoring hateful things about the government. After that, not only is our freedom of speech severely restricted, but the very thing the first amendment was supposed to stop happening has happened!!! The internet may technically not be speaking, but it is a form of press and therefore this would be a direct violation!

Even if it does stop there, THE FACT IS THAT THE GOVERNMENT IS TELLING US WHAT WE CAN AND CAN'T PUT OUT ON THE INTERNET. Do you want the government to monitor your blog posts, then one day say "Sorry, you can't say the f-bomb. Change your post or don't post it"? What if one day you're feeling so angry, and so worked up, and so emotional that the only way you can get across just how freakin angry you are is the f-bomb? No other words can describe it well enough. And then the government comes in and says you're not allowed to express your emotions! I DON'T EVEN SWEAR, AND I'M STILL FIRMLY AGAINST THIS!

Once again,. CONTACT YOUR REPRESENTATIVES AND TELL THEM NO! WE HAVE FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND OF THE PRESS! WE CANNOT HAVE THIS RIGHT TAKEN AWAY FROM US!
