    This has nothing to do with the marathon bombing, and will have no effect on internet law. Nobody has forgotten this, but there are slightly more pressing issues at hand. Like say a bunch of injured people that just got blown up in a marathon.
    So far since Obama has been in office, every time there is a bill that limits the American peoples freedoms in any way, shape, or form, a tragedy occurs. I refuse to believe it's all a "coincidence".

    i don't give a fuck you know the point i was trying to make.
    I heard the Boston Marathon is "Da Bomb". Piss you off? Like I give a flying fuck. Tell me more about how I should care about a bombing that killed one person when another bomb that went off in Afghanistan this same day killed 42 others. It's a fucking bandwagon, you probably cried like a little pussy ass ****** when Amanda Todd killed herself. Cocksucking dick rider.

    And again, my point stands. You seem to be pretty thick, so I will spell it out for you.

    Someone bombed a crowd of people.
    People have died, and many more are injured.
    It was an act of terror in an attempt to harm human life.
    People died.
    This literally has nothing to do with internet censorship.
    Internet censorship also does not pose the threat of sparking international controversy, or fueling another war, or have any effect on people whos lives just got ruined.
    Internet censorship does not kill people.
    The bombing litereally happened a few hours ago, things are still unfolding, as there is much more to find out, even potentially more attacks.

    So yeah, I think the bombing of a crowd of people is a little more pressing of an issue than an internet bill that has been around for a while now, and you probably havnt even read.

    You are quite well known for being an insensitive, unusual cruel twat, but Ill bother pointing out why you are an idiot too.

    If you honestly think that Obama being president has anything to do with a bombing of a marathon, you need to unplug your internet, shut yourself back in your basement, and cry under your blankie listening to rush limbaugh cry about how bad his country is.

    If you also think that a bill designed to control the internet has anything to do with a bombing of a marathon, you are not only a douche, but a tin-hat moron.

    We can investigate the causes of this attack, find the perpetrator,
    and sort this all out. I am simply stating that we can not dwell solely
    on this incident as there are more pressing issues at hand.
    Indeed it is a tragedy, indeed lives were lost. Yet at this moment it
    only affects an astronomically small percentage of the overall populace.
    I myself never spoke of internet censorship, that was Lehsyrus, so I have
    not an inkling as to why you are arguing it with me. I agree on the
    grounds that this will turn into yet another act of sensationalism by the mainstream media.

    The immediate insulting of a person based on their personal speculation is a sign of an egotistical twat. Yes, I am insensitive, and do not give a flying fuck about the bombing, why? That's quite easy enough, there are terroristic attacks all over the world every day, and just because one is committed to the country I live in I should automatically raise arms and start crying like a little bitch? No, the human race as a whole is supposed to stick together, but as it stands it does not, so I will not side with one or another simply because I was born in such a land. Yes, it was a tragedy for those who are involved, no, I will not spend my time posting about how such a tragic event it was only to feed my own undeserving ego on such a matter to feel pity for those who are involved. It is a pathetic attempt at a boosting insight to ones own emotional embodiment and I will take no part. Now stop proving how the pussification of America is progressing by bashing others for their own observation, take the dick out of your ass, and leave if you do not like my insight on the matter. If not, I will simply continue to ignore your self-absorbed egotistical "I'm better than you because I know it" bullshit.

    No, you are thick because you seem to think that this is just some small event that has no effect on anything but a few people. Obviously we cant prevent it from happening at this point, but the fact that you seem to believe we should just be like 'meh whatevs, it didnt kill everyone in the country so it aint no big deal'. Is there something about the fact that this was a planned act of terror that you are not quite receiving?

    Im not claiming to be better than you, nor am I saying that the loss of human life is trivial. My point was you are relating something completely unrelated to an event that just happened, so something completely unrelated. The bombing happen all the time, but you seem to think that nothing is being done about it. The loss of human life is bad, but claiming that we should just ignore it because it happens all the time in favor of complaining about a bill directed at the internet is also trite. I also never said that either was un-important, so perhaps you could remove the dick from your ass in thinking that I believe that its unimportant cause 'people die all the time'

    Thats fine and dandy. Im not dumb, and I realize this happens all the time. I am not claiming that this event has some kind of importance over those. But saying that we should just ignore it is however dumb.

    Also, there is kind of a difference in an attack where it is common, and one that happens on US soil. It happens over there for different reasons that it would happen over here, as a vast majority of our population is not suicide bombing religious zealots.

    Man, I'm not saying we should ignore it, I'm saying it's way too much of a coincidence that every time there is some sort of freedom-stripping bill about to be passed, a tragic event happens. Also, as much as I am an insensitive bastard, I do not wish harm on others, also, I apologize for being harsh before. It is not beneath me to know when I become a bit too harsh.

    Believe me, neither do I. US media is fucked no doubt, but the sensationalism that comes later is different than the initial reaction and effort to get to the bottom of things after it happens. Saying that you dont want a tragedy to be recognized for what it is, in fear of it getting plastered over hyper-active sensationalist news sites is not right.

    Also, everyone is still breezing over my original point that a bombing has nothing to do with an internet bill, and has no reason to be belittled because some internet bill has cropped back up.

    You seem to be in the same position as above. You fear the reaction from a warped news media, so you try and jump the gun on moving on. There has to be a balance between remembering past events to prevent further ones, and over hyping it to create fear and drive up ratings.

    Also, again, just because there is a bill coming up, does not mean that things just start blowing up. If this bombing was motivated by the bill than sure, but there is literally nothing to say otherwise. A wild conspiracy theory that this was intentional to get people to forget about this bill is also pretty far fetched. Of all the crazy shit that has been passed, almost none of them coincided with national tragedies such as this.

    Which was my original point. Hence the sarcastic remark about politicizing things that have nothing to do with what just happened.

    You seem to be in the same position as above. You fear the reaction from a warped news media, so you try and jump the gun on moving on. There has to be a balance between remembering past events to prevent further ones, and over hyping it to create fear and drive up ratings.

    Also, again, just because there is a bill coming up, does not mean that things just start blowing up. If this bombing was motivated by the bill than sure, but there is literally nothing to say otherwise. A wild conspiracy theory that this was intentional to get people to forget about this bill is also pretty far fetched. Of all the crazy shit that has been passed, almost none of them coincided with national tragedies such as this.
    I can assure you it's not fear, as I find the media absolute rubbish. The media hasn't correlated the tragedies in conjunction with the bills being passed, I still find it highly peculiar that there is always SOMETHING that happens right before these bills are brought into voting. Everytime, SOMETHING happens, it's just too much of a coincidence for me to look at another angle. I am a bit of a conspiracy theorist (I'm not drastic such as believing the WTC was bombed on 9/11 and the planes didn't exist as many others say), but I do look at many angles before thinking what I do, and I find this way too much of a coincidence to be a coincidence.
