Indymedia Server Raided by FBI
jaromil writes "Today at about 18:00 CET FBI raided the indymedia servers hosted by Rackspace both in US and England. At present, the italian indymedia and numerous other local IMC websites are obscured, while the reasons why the hard drives were taken are still unknown."
The 'regular media' isn't so fucking stupid as to post names, addresses, and phone numbers of RNC delegates. Replace all instances of "Indymedia" with "Wal-Mart" in that case and see how fast the slashbots change their tune.
'Standards' in computing only impress those who are impressed by things like 'standards'.
So you'd be one of the unemployed crack whores dragging our society down to the bowels of hell, then. Like me.
Thanks for clearing that up.
Boycott everything - they're all trying to fuck you one way or another
(jaded state trooper voice)Uh-huh. . .Son, I'm gonna need to see some kind of source for that bullshit.(/jaded state trooper voice)
Go back to watching Faux news you insensitive clod!
I think having independent media is very inportant for the world today.
Online backup with Mozy, sounds like Ozzie, but more!
Because abortion doctors are good and the Republican are evil.
Don't you listen to Dan Rather? The media has been trying to explain why only liberal points of view are valid for some time now, why haven't you gotten on board yet ?
I'll bet you're one of them nasty redneck Republicans that want to kill all our wildlife with machine guns and then feed only ketchup to our young impressionable children at lunchtime.
Disclaimer - it's sarcasm, moderators - last time I got modded down due to being taken seriously.
I think this post really highlights the tendency of people to believe their own personal views are virtuous while opposing views are virtuous. The number of attacks on abortion providers pails in comparison to the general mayhem caused by liberal protestors in the past year alone. The reason is simple, most of the vocal liberals are nothing more than communists, and as such support violent resistence.
Now, I personally am not saying violence is in and of itself wrong, as political change without it is , for the most part, an extreme rarity. That said, to suggest that liberals have not intimidated conservatives EVER smacks of sheer ignorance.
Unfortunately, it is important to note that your attitude is what ultimately leads to civil war. When both sides fail to see that their opponents are also trying to find the best solution for the future, free debate becomes impossible. When we can no longer rationally debate governmental policy, the only alternative left is violence.
In a way, your attitude is what ultimately leads to the violence you believe your opponents advocate. See you at the front.
I don't read or respond to AC posts
So? They're the government, that's okay. I'm sure more people were executed by the state when Bush was governor of Texas then then anti-abortion groups killed in that time-period. Bush still got into power so that just shows it's okay for the government to do it.
And yes, I completely expect to get modded down for this.
"As for your 35 million figure, it isn't a baby unless its wanted and born."
What does being _wanted_ have to do with being a baby? Are you not a human if people don't like you?
"I'd love to see all of the conservatives who are against abortion stomach the taxes it would take to financially support the social programs that would be needed to raise these unwanted kids."
Every heard of adoption? Do you know how hard it is for barren parents to adopt a child because of the low number of children available for adoption?
In addition, the point that conservatives always make is not that spending money to help people is bad, but rather that the government is the wrong vehicle to do so, being how bad the government is at ever helping people either effectively or efficiently.
"You are an utter moron if you think that someone who is unopposed to abortion commits a crime is enacting "pro-abortion murder"."
If someone kills a doctor to prevent them from performing an abortion, that is considered a "pro-life murder". So, likewise, if someone kills a woman to prevent her from having a baby, why should that not be considered a "pro-abortion murder"? I'm perfectly willing to do away with both categorizations, giving that in each instance it is marginal freaks and not mainstreamers doing it, but if you set up the category for "pro-life murders" you have to be willing to accept a similar category for "pro-abortion murder".
Engineering and the Ultimate
The FBI had nothing to do with this. In fact, it was the CDC, attempting to contain an outbreak of viral insanity.
I visited an Indymedia site once. I could actually hear my neurons screaming their tiny death screams. Fortunately I shut down my browser quickly and, in time, I hope to make a full recovery.
