SOPA/PIPA protest over…

How’d we do?…

The more I looked into this legislation the more I don’t like it. The worst part? It was the “R’s” who designed it… One man who actually co-sponsored it, Marco Rubio (R-Fla) actually pulled his support after the outrage took. For that I give Marco Rubio high marks for his character and his commitment to listening to his people. He made an error and fixed it while accepting the blame for his error in judgement. Kudos. Now don’t let it happen again and keep up the fight.

Other than that the protest IMO was a huge failure. It was half assed poorly organized and ridiculously minimal in it’s point. I participated in solidarity with my fellow bloggers who went dark in protest and I have no regrets. From what I understand here’s how the protest turned Marco Rubio’s mind around:

Marco Rubio went to Wikipedia and it was dark, he was upset. He went to Reddit and he was annoyed, he went to a few high profile blogs who were dark and got angered. Then he tried to visit A&P and lost it!

Glad I could help.
