But it's ok, because you'll all be there with me XD :iconhugplz:

That's what PIPA and SOPA is gonna do to us, if it had went through.  Accord to that act, anyone who's ever uploaded or downloaded or reproduced copy-righted material will potentially be convicted of piracy. :iconjohnnydeppplz:

PIPA and SOPA reaches further than you think:  Have you ever posted fan-art?  You can't do that under PIPA because that's technically reproduction and redistribution of copy-righted material.  So, all of my Madoka Magica stuff will put me in the slammer D:<  Actually, have you posted ANYTHING AT ALL?  You're liable under SOPA because you've just distributed copy-righted material on the internet for anyone to download and/or re-upload.  If you so much as link a deviation to someone's Facebook wall, you've committed piracy...

According to this, e-mailing a GIF, sharing a link on Facebook, downloading a poster from memebase, or even watching/uploading a youtube video is prohibited under PIPA and SOPA.  And all my friends who's given me a movie on a hard-drive or let me browse through their music library, I'll be seeing them in jail as well...

Ok, I might be exaggerating this "going to jail" stuff a bit, but violation of these laws do carry heavy penalties like fines of thousands of dollars, and being a college student, I would seriously consider going to jail because I refuse to pay 500 bucks just to show you guys a drawing I did over the weekend.  I don't understand at all what the hell the senator who came up with this were thinking.  I thought America was the land of freedom, in speech, expression, and actions; so who the hell thought that passing a bill to prohibit 100% of expression on the internet would be a good idea?!

Oh, and in case you're wondering which numb-skull was actually responsible for this, it's this guy:  [link] Patrick Leahy.  Yup, he has a Facebook page.  You know what to do :icontrollinthedungeonplz:  And for the ultimate display of irony:  Patrick Leahy's profile picture, the one he chose to post on Facebook, was taken by a journalist, who did not give him permission to the use of said picture.  That's right:  Patrick Leahy is a FREAKIN' PIRATE!!!!!! <EDIT>  K, so you can't just html tag him, but he's there.  just facebook search him.

And in the spirit of things:  [link] you're saying, Chris, won't you and I go to jail because you just posted that link to what I'm assuming is copy-righted material?  Well, You've also attached all of the damns I give about this stupid and oppressive bill.

All the damns I give:
