Bah!
That would fall apart under a court challenge faster than you say "I'm filing a motion to dismiss all charges your honor." That's assuming something as ham fistedly worded as that could even pass into law under the US's insane two par-er never mind it almost certainly will pass because shit that absolutely needs to pass down there never does due to partisan bullshit and stuff that is retarded like this always does because of the same reason.

I don't see it being effective though, just pulled out whenever they need to arrest the newest torrent site owner.

Knowing those on capitol hill, it wouldn't shock me if it passed. This was the same administration who wanted to pass SOPA, if you'll remember.

Also the same administration who elected Frank Underwood, even though he killed that nice bald fella and pushed whatsherface under a train, as seen in that documentary House of Cards.

For someone who's most famous role is a pilot of sorts, Harrison Ford's having a lot of ironic injuries lately.
"Get off my plane!" went from being a catchphrase to sound survival advice.

www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/03/07/isis-destroy-hatra_n_6822106.htmlOrdinarily I detest the Huffington Post, but this bears mentioning. ISIS over in Iraq decided they're going to bulldoze every ancient city that offends them. The city in the article dates back to the Age of Babylon and was a significant holy site for Muslims. A city that stood for 4,000 years just... gone. The rage I'm feeling here is palpable.

And to balance my rage against ISIS... Linders and Lily will both vouch that I had a nerd-out and currently have a man-crush on this legit present-day badass. King Abdullah II of Jordan

ISIS are a bunch of cultural nihilists and vindictive, insufferable fuckwads, who I don't mind the least bit in saying I'd like to see them eradicated off the face of the Earth.

I was pretty pissed when I heard snippets of this last week. One of Canada's bigger Islamic groups have already declared fatwa on these punks effectively excommunicating them. Of course that's not much different than a Catholic excommunicating a Baptist. Everybody is going to keep believing whatever they believe.
ISIS doing this could actually be a turning point though. It's a terrible price to pay but these atrocities are pissing off the moderates within the Islamic community and moderate (yes they exist) Islamic leaders. Only the murderous and mentally ill will join their ranks in the wake of this atrocity. Well, I hope that is the case anyway. I have to see a bright spot somewhere here.
