Oh cmon now.

The senate passed it, but the house hasn't voted yet, and Obama strongly objects to this which makes a veto likely. The bill is not law. Stop playing the fear factor or I won't take your seriously every again.

ambiguous or unclear language is purposefully written into law.
it may take courts years or even decades to overturn or "interpret" the ambiguous language in such a way that it does not violate basic civil rights or the constitution. Until then, IF then, you're fucked.
@Edgeman2112 - there is a good reason to be really concerned.

The video states that it currently is not law, but it is on its way to potentially becoming law. It provides details of what the proposed law is and why it is a threat to our civil liberties, and effectively states that as citizens it is our right to stand up against the injustices of our government. As citizens it is our duty to be informed voters.

While their screwy video production makes them look quite kooky, the point they are making is very valid. Unfortunately the average US voter is too busy watching the 700 Club to bother researching and understanding the issues that affect our country in any detail beyond a propaganda laden sound bite. This video does serve its purpose. To help bring about awareness. We are discussing it in some manner, so in that way it is a success.

It is a responsible citizen's duty to understand, and research an issue thoroughly and to come to one's own conclusion. This video does one thing. It brings about a dialog that the US corporate propaganda laden media establishment will NOT start in any meaningful way. With any luck, it will help encourage the average lazy uneducated US voter to use that thing in their head called a brain and to stop taking everything on 'faith', and become participatory democratic citizens.

In a Democracy, when we stop thinking. When we start trusting our government without question. When we stop protesting our grievances as our constitutional rights grant. Then we have lost our Democracy. We might as well hand over the reigns to a dictatorship.

America / Americans, can you please sort this out as its really starting to scare me. We're only one step behind in the uk but we've already gone too far. Where you go we are bound to follow.

My new slogan in life is... FUCK THE FED.

This should gather support from both Republicans Democrats and independents.

i stopped paying as much attention when i realized that it was taken almost entirely from "V for Vendetta." i stopped listening entirely when they misspelled "isn't."

Ok so it's law. Great. Thank you congress for your bipartisan, veto-proof majority.
