Solution: Assasinate congress and replace with new one

Has violating the Bill Of Rights ever stopped Congress? It's a piece of paper. Any moment they could zap those rights out of effect.

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
Quote from the constitution

Yea it says right there they can't prohibit our freedom of speech. If they tried, there would be a large amount of people going to Washington if became close to passing.

Break out the reaction images.

Despite how much we hate it, no one will do anything about it, because obviously we'd only be so active to stop it for the research. It'd be embarrassing to actually take action.

4chan is an american website

Yes, that's exactly why.  It's all about the research.

Not the idea of a government censoring our internet, the biggest free domain in the history of all man-kind.
