Subject: RE: RIAA wants the Internet shut down
I think a lot of your stuff is right on the mark, GUEST, you do have one-party rule in America (masquerading as 2 parties), and yes, that's exactly the same BS as it was with Vietnam. Same damn routine all over again. They must think people have no memory at all.

However, your often-repeated prediction of "foreign troops" in the streets of America seems enormously unlikely to me. They will not bring in foreign troops while there are still a great many of their own willing to do the policing, and there are. Did Hitler have to bring in foreign troops? Hell, no. Did Stalin? Nope. The local bully boys are always ready and willing to pack a big gun and serve the high command. Besides, bringing in foreign troops would result in a massively negative reaction on the part of virtually all Americans. Americans think of their country as a fortress and believe they can handle any situation themselves. That argues against any such idea as bringing in foreign troops. What makes you think they would even try to do something that unpopular?
