Democrats, Minority Groups Question Net Neutrality Push
uuddlrlrab writes "A group of 72 Democratic lawmakers is the latest to question the US Federal Communications Commission's move to create new net neutrality regulations. Democrats, including US President Barack Obama, have generally supported new rules that would prohibit broadband providers from selectively blocking or slowing Web content, but the group of 72 members of the House of Representatives sent a letter Thursday to FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski, saying they're concerned that new regulations would slow down investment in broadband networks. A coalition of minority groups made their objections known as well, saying, 'We are concerned that some of the proposed regulations on the Internet could, as applied, inhibit the goal of universal access and leave disenfranchised communities further behind.' This follows news from earlier in the week that similar letters were sent by a group of 44 tech companies and a group of 18 Republican senators."
It's worth noting that the FCC is receiving letters in support of the net neutrality regulations as well. One such is from a group of internet pioneers, which includes Vint Cerf and Stephen Crocker.
As regards peace, no one argues the basis for WW2. The Soviets were dogs because we were. Violence can be overcome, just like hunger. You have to work at it. So I do.
You're an idiot.
One wonders how a mind like yours work. For example. Without violence (that ends in death), evolution would not work. Without violence constantly comitted by the police, America would look like Somalia. Without massive violence, Europe would have become Nazi, and would have devolved into a failed remnant of a communist state by now. Without the constant application of violence by the state that you so despise you would have had to sit in a corner while some brute raped your mother, hoping against hope he wouldn't rape you next, like half of Somalians do in that "nonviolent" country.
As I said : you're an idiot, and that's assuming your total dishonesty and inconsistency are caused by your stupidity. All other explanations are worse.
If you really abhor violence, I challenge you. I will keep abusing you, and you will solve this without using violence. Without ignoring me, without insulting me, like in your last post. If you can't, you're a dishonest man. If you use violence (like your last post for example) you're a lying hypocrite. Do however, feel free to retreat in any dimension other than the 4 I will not tolerate your ugly disgusting face in. See ? Lots of anger issues need solving here.
And as your answer clearly indicates, you're not against agression. You're just an asshole that thinks he is the SOLE justified user of violence. You're an elitist idiot, and you're weak. That's why you "abhor" violence, of course only that comitted by others, not that comitted by you yourself.
Let's be realistic : you're not (that) stupid, you're nothing but lying scum. A little crybaby screeching about how terribly unfair the real world is, for not being exactly the world that you want it to be. And obviously that this world exists is entirely my fault.
