HR 1955 -- Thought Crimes

you don't have to be a fan of Rosie by any means but remember her free speech is granted to her by the bill of rights, the same that allows me to post about her and the same that allows you to comment back.



"The use of furtherance of political or social objective"

The voice over brings up great points about the vague definitions of terrorism, the likelihood of abuse against speech and thought and, in a pure form, defends those. We all already know the freedoms of speech and market place of ideas, but i will take it one step further *not to endorse violence, but rather peaceful resolution and protest* the forefathers also did allow in the bill of rights to overthrow our government, violently if needed, and NOT considering it terrorism (remember, they over threw there tyrannically government).

In many ways, the forefathers of this nation also encouraged the people to rise up against the governmental and with verbal/mental/physical dissidence, thus, instilled rights, beyond just dissenting speech. Given for US citizens to use against an overbearing corrupted centralized government, the forefathers permanently allowed the right to: keep and bear arms; the freedom of assembly; there is once again also the fear of overbearing government with: the freedom to petition mean the rights to be free of unreasonable search and seizure; cruel and unusual punishment.

More horrifying beyond physical dissidence there is now measures to stop verbal dissidence... no, not even dissidence -- just fact stating, like our freedom of the press, or education or "force of a logical argument." ok, there are so many things wrong i have to quite and come back. beyond the violation and understanding of almost every right in the Bill of Rights this is just ridiculous. I can argue against the premises, but all the basic logical points, i mean "furtherance of a political objective" -isn't that our government in general, ironically, this thing enforcing the law... oh god head exploding -just watch the video again or i posted more in the comment box
