Americans, please read and take note. fear that this is the model that we're headed for.
many Chinese are unaware of the censorship, but those who are, elect not to care or do anything about it. i pray that we don't let this happen when the time comes. it has slowly started already here at home (banning Internet gambling). Governments have absolutely no right to censor our voice.
keep this issue in the front of your mind's eye when it's time to cast the ballot for the primaries, and then again next november.
"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety." - Benjamin Franklin. November 11, 1755
it is also the case that one you give up liberty for "safety", that in return you get neither. a perfect example of this would be the patriot act.
