German TOR Servers Seized
mrogers writes "Servers participating in the TOR anonymizing network have been seized by public prosecutors during a child porn crackdown in Germany. TOR provides anonymity for clients and servers by redirecting traffic through a network of volunteer-operated relays; the German prosecutors may have been trying to locate an anonymous server by examining the logs of the captured relays."
But if he can lose his power due to Democrats taking the House and Senate, he will have a very useless final two years. And if we could impeach him and Cheney, that would be a nice bonus. :) They really need to be punished for what they've done to our country and so many others.

No, Veteran arrested on Veteran's day for arrogantly demanding and attempting to interrupt a meeting organized by other people for other purposes.
> Other protestors arrested
Yes. Arrested for sitting their asses down in front of the White House and refusing to move. You don't get to do that just because you really, really, gosh darn it, really believe in your cause.
When you distort things for the purpose of rhetoric, you just demean your cause.

Now this is much more relevant. You can only hold up a sign or "boo" in a government-designated "free speech zone", though you can hold up supportive signs and cheer anywhere.
Quote real, troubling things like this and you will build much more momentum than quoting lots of misleading things. Oh, golly, the guy who throws pies in people's faces was arrested for interrupting someone's meeting and throwing a pie in someone's face. How horrible! Gestapo! Seig Heil, mein fuehrer!
(-1: Post disagrees with my already-settled worldview) is not a valid mod option.
Freedom of speech doesn't mean the right to yell fire in a public building or to publish child pornography. There are many facets of life where you are not allowed to act with anonymity. You can not own property, drive a car, fly on a plane, or have a bank account and remain anonymous.
