It never ends. Here is the latest crazy new potential law the Dems are pushing.
Whoever transmits in interstate or foreign commerce any communication, with the intent to coerce, intimidate, harass, or cause substantial emotional distress to a person, using electronic means to support severe, repeated, and hostile behavior, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than two years, or both

While this is supposed to be for "CyberBullying", I'm sure that since what we do here causes "Substantial emotional distress" to liberals, it is not a stretch to imagine we here at the 912 could be jailed under this if ever passed.
The only good news is that it seems that most think this is unconstitutional. If that term still applies anymore.
