Project_Deimos User ID: 747845 United States 11/30/2010 07:42 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I totally disagree with the new restrictions, however it doesn't appear impossible to ship over 453 grams. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1179200It's not impossible to "ship" anything. It's air mail over 453 grams that is blocked. You can use surface mail, and mail whatever size thing you want. It can go in ships, trains, and trucks. Only airmail is affected. Please read the link - very simply you cannot send Airmail by leaving it in your mailbox. It requires delivery to the local PO and providing information to some database about who you are, who you are shipping to, etc but not related to any monetary exchange...almost like having a FedEx or UPS account but being a private individual. I think this is a case of (unfortunately) jump through hoops and you're ok. Last Edited by Project_Deimos on 11/30/2010 07:49 AM "There are known knowns. There are things we know we know.

We can't even receive a book. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1178860People something is seriously wrong here. It isn't terrorism. These are acts of dictators and paranoid freaks who are the real terrorists. Cut you off form the outside world. Freeze the money. and then it will be invasion time. I'm looking for us to be invaded in the near future. |
Hickory User ID: 974021 United States 11/30/2010 08:00 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Wasn't this the result of the toner cartridge bomb false flag event a few weeks back? This pattern is so easy to figure out. Quoting: ºCRAPºyup So they restrict due to the last attempt. Too little too late is the motto here. Because the terrorists will move to new methods anyways. So these restrictions aren't stopping terrorism, they are creating domestic terrorism. Yep..... You have one life. Live it. You have one voice, use it. You have one :Hickory-1: |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1018783 United States 11/30/2010 08:28 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | OP I'm glad to see you also see the similarities to the Soviet Union regarding what is happening to the US. Many Americans compare it to nazi Germany instead which is a bit off, but our media bombards us with tv shows and movies about nazis, but there is little mention of Stalin or Soviet Union in general. I don't think it's coincidence as they want to keep the population ignorant about what is really happening here, and who is taking us over. |
