"You do realize that--according to the majority posting on this thread--you have just placed yourself in the company of the Taliban!"

Well, if someone thinks that, then they obvious haven't read much of what I write.

The sad part of what you write is the dumbing down of what words mean. I see conservatives and liberals throw this "Taliban" word around. Nobody that I know, Democrat/Republican/Christian etc., is proposing a "Taliban" response. If the Taliban didn't like what you did, they could have you imprisoned or killed, without a trial. Taliban is a Islamic dictatorship. Proposing changes to laws or objecting to such proposals are essential to a democratic republic.

Throwing "Taliban" or "Nazi" around carelessly, doesn't advance anyones cause. In fact, I think that it ultimately hurts everyone.

Sincerely

The talibunnies had their trials. They never did w/o them. In case you missed it, the groups in the article are attempting to make simple pay per view a crime. That means they would jail folks for getting involved in it.
