Hmmm, I no longer hate that Ted Nugent is President.
If it can help people, then yippee! But, I think I can already hear the collective buzz of the world's dishonorable forces thinking up ways to use this as a tool for the powerful in threatening enemies, and maintaining control over a human population.

Duck Breath
I think I found the problem - he says that "my mission today is to go forth and tell people about why I follow Christ and also what the bible teaches." ...so my mission is to let him know that droves of us don't want to hear what his beliefs are, or what his favorite religious book tells him. Think of it like cellphones in a plane - nobody wants that stuff!
More about this nonsense...

A failure bowl in an even larger failure bowl...!
Nice try, but nobody can un-skin a cat - not even Russia's shirtless, pink racketoon leader. If justice still works, he'll trip and fall into a vat of multi-colored paint and spend closing ceremonies as a failed rainbow...

HuffPo Bait and Switch
"HuffPost recognizes that many people are not in a professional or personal situation where attaching their name to a comment is feasible, and this change will not require users to identify themselves in connection with each comment." - Jimmy Soni at HuffPo 8-23-2013

Cum Squad
Weinstein's plan has a fatal flaw. Producers can easily disregard the entire thing; which they are doing, leaving existing monitoring useless, and protecting less people than previously. It's a lose lose for realistic regulations and performers, and a gain only for this type of man and his predictably misguided and distorted 'mission'.

Casting Shadows
Historian and archivist David Pierce has said that "few defunct art forms have the resonance of silent films.
"It's a lost style of storytelling, and the best of the films are as effective with audiences today as they were when they were initially released," he said. "When you take away dialogue from a narrative story, it actually puts quite a challenge upon the creative people involved to tell the story entirely in a visual fashion. And it's that limitation, I think, which makes the films so effective."Fortress Wikipedia
Wikipedia offers me the clearest example of one of the most important values of the internet - the presentation of validated information based on an ongoing, living human intelligence that is attempting to remain alive and persevere against misinformation.

"Pesky Occasions" a new hit by Sheryl Crowe
"I propose a limitation be put on how many squares of toilet paper can be used in any one sitting.
"Now, I don't want to rob any law-abiding American of his or her God-given rights, but I think we are an industrious enough people that we can make it work with only one square per restroom visit, except, of course, on those pesky occasions where 2 to 3 could be required. " - Sheryl Crowe 2007

10 Boys Arrested For Allegedly Using Snapchat To Make Child Porn
If the result is as you describe, then this is reasonable. But too many resume building prosecutors are roaming the land and often snag easy targets, and sensational media coverage. Adolescence is a tough gig; we all go through it and, thankfully, most of us survive with great memories, exciting anecdotes, and no permanent harm to anyone. Let's hope that these kids avoid the mincemeat machine.

French Newspaper Removes All Pictures To Show Importance Of Photographers
Yeah, and that's the real sour part of all this. Editors have learned that the general public will accept lower standards than what is offered by professionals - and publishers now know that they can move closer to cheap by borrowing into those new standards - even though it decimates the ranks of an amazing art and craft in the process. If people can accept a Skype interview on major television, and digest pixelated selfies and artless composition, then these are the bad days for yet another part of humanity coming up against the juggernaut of technology and the internet.

A Terrible Man
Cohen is still oozing awfullness; these days to such a degree that it seems almost medical. But it is merely the natural quickening of fear and hatred that envelopes late-term conservatives. Not to worry - when he starts screaming into gay bars, or yelling obsenities at some hostess with bare arms, just call the cops.
Butt-sniffing Pot Cops on call...
It seems like sanity and irony can co-exist in Colorado - good to know! Surely, at the end of Prohibition, there were thousands of cops who recognized the foolishness that had occupied their working lives for so many years. If we want to follow justice, then we absolutely need just laws to support it.

No Union? You'll have to break a leg for a day off...
It's awful to feel trapped, and even worse to actually be trapped. Fear of loss of lifestyle, and unease about basic survival, is out there, loose in the American Shire. Feeding on that are red-state baggers and others, who know nothing of value to civil society and have relentlessly attacked the American core - convincing crowds to trade their future security for the horrendous lie that they will have a better, more honorable life alone in the world; with a tiny, shackled government.
But make no mistake, these people, and their ideas, are unstable at the core, and they are terrified of those of us who choose to band together to pursue happiness in healthy, safer and more secure circumstances - involving our government resources if needed.
Fixing all this means that we have to act decisively against the bad actors, steering them into a thoroughly foul ditch, and denying every iota of respect for their ideas; and for all of them personally and publicly.
