@Johnny_of_the_swamp that our states/fed are concerned with passing laws to silence people either indicates a disconnect from the population, or an actual popular will.
from what i'm seeing, a lot of people enjoy silencing their enemies... i can't say for how much of a phenomenon this is, or if they're just really loud about it.
again, there might be something wrong with the government as is...
anyway.. rant-y
okay phone line saturation that's a thing.
