Yeah, that is why I'm disturbed by the whole racial profiling thing and no liquid allowed on airplane thing.
Really, it's a no win situation, except for terrorists who gain by the rest of the society starting to lose their freedoms and rights. |

That's as silly as saying if the streets are policed (which they are) that it would stop the sale of illegal drugs on the streets (which it doesn't). |
Agreed ... |

If the internet were to be regulated there would be no TA, as mp3's would not be allowed to be traded freely.
I'm against the regulation. With a deregulated internet as we have now, it allows for the most powerful form of democracy of ideas.
No to big brother! |

Policed, absolutely.
Regulated, no.
Two different things. The internet is a digital publication. Everyone is free to post what they wish. With that comes responsibility, and one is always responsible for what one publishes.
If you post something illegal, be ready to face the consequences.
However this nucase from yesterday was free to post what he felt. Hundreds of people have read his blog and profile. How many have reported his mental instability? None.
It is up to US, and not police, to regulate. It is up to us to speak up and speak out to prevent the possible. |

| If I reported every single person that posted something politically-incorrect on the Internet, the police would have a LOT more work to do. |

| meh.. I don't believe they could do it even if they wanted to. How can you regulate a website that is say hosted in another country that doesn't have the same regulations. |
