Then the US government has to be removed because they're intervening in 
foreign politics... Lame argument.

This thread is on the way to become a good example of bikesheeding [1], 
instead of waiting until everyone has given his or her opinion, we 
should go back to something _real_ important.

I know, SOPA is a very important and difficult topic, but the protest 
was there. It's already over and we also could discuss about the right 
or wrong of other protests like the "Montagsdemonstrationen" in Berlin 
and Leipzig during  cold war.

really, it's becoming ridiculous.
