Wow, this is bad. It's already passed the house and is on it's way to the senate. If passed, the Department of Homeland Security could "interpret" anything it wants as a THOUGHT of terrorism. Including internet propaganda sites. If interpreted as a terrorist THOUGHT (not action) it gives the rights to the government to strip that individual of civil liberties and be treated as a terrorist. Imprisoned, tortured, the whole 9!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't this go completely against Freedom of Speech?

Does anyone have any more knowlege on this bill? Am I missing something entirely?

Freedom of speech reads good on paper, but no so much when spoken now..

Todays word, boys and girls is McCarthyism.
