Stop Online Piracy Act Markup to Resume in February
Washington, D.C. — House Judiciary Committee Chairman Lamar Smith (R-Texas) today said that he expects the Committee to continue its markup of the Stop Online Piracy Act in February.
Chairman Smith: "To enact legislation that protects consumers, businesses and jobs from foreign thieves who steal America's intellectual property, we will continue to bring together industry representatives and Members to find ways to combat online piracy.
“Due to the Republican and Democratic retreats taking place over the next two weeks, markup of the Stop Online Piracy Act is expected to resume in February.
“I am committed to continuing to work with my colleagues in the House and Senate to send a bipartisan bill to the White House that saves American jobs and protects intellectual property."
This is why I don't like the Americans that make all the laws, they are just retarded.
He...didn't accuse all Americans of being retarded.This is why I don't like the Americans that make all the laws, they are just retarded.
Nice that you accuse All Americans of being retarded, when not every American wants this to pass.

It's pathetic that the country that was erected upon the philosophy of personal rights is now having to fight for liberty from their government. It's like history is repeating itself, and nobody cares. The government controls our money, our income, our jobs, and our liberties. We have already lost our public freedom of speech, and then social media was invented. We created our own country, our own refuge from the horrors of the world around us. But just as we escaped the nightmare of politics affecting our lives, the government decides to step in. Piracy is no different than when people sat next to a radio and recorded songs on a Walkman or tape deck. The only difference is the way we do it. We host it and make mass copies. It still hasn't effected the world as to people no longer using itunes and spending money. It's that the government wants to control what little bit of freedom and rights to speech we have. So many uprisings and rebellions in the world lately have probably made them realize that they needed to prevent uprising on social media, which was how the others began. It's sickening.c tha
'nuff said.
F*** SOPA and PIPA.
If this bill is really passed I wonder what will happen. Payable wikipedia?
Look at all the idiotic tweets in this news article...shame on Twitter for not joining it to ram the point home to those who have no clue what's going on.
If this bill passes, and Lamar Smith tries to shove this up our a**, I'm moving here (http://tinyurl.com/74gtrkd)
