I believe I've heard that they've added language that would allow for being exempt from this rule if you're an American citizen.

Otherwise, I would expect that an American Revolution 2: Revolution Harder to be around the corner, because there is no fascism like American fascism.

I still hate this bill and everything is stands for. I fully expect Americans to be detained "on accident" that they'll put zero effort into resolving without a giant media spectacle. I still don't like the idea of being able to secret away even non-american citizens into secret prisons with no trial for the same reasons - they might not be american, but they're still people.

Also, let's not forget SOFA and Protect IP laws to censor the internet!

You know, to protect our freedoms.
If today you can take a thing like evolution and make it a crime to teach in the public schools, tomorrow you can make it a crime to teach it in the private schools and next year you can make it a crime to teach it to the hustings or in the church. At the next session you may ban books and the newspapers...
Ignorance and fanaticism are ever busy and need feeding. Always feeding and gloating for more. Today it is the public school teachers; tomorrow the private. The next day the preachers and the lecturers, the magazines, the books, the newspapers. After a while, Your Honor, it is the setting of man against man and creed against creed until with flying banners and beating drums we are marching backward to the glorious ages of the sixteenth centry when bigots lighted fagots to burn the men who dared to bring any intelligence and enlightenment and culture to the human mind. ~Clarence Darrow, at the Scopes Monkey Trial, 1925

Politics is supposed to be the second-oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first. ~Ronald Reagan
