New law to make lip-syncing a FELONY, up to 5 YEARS IN PRISON.... Why is nobody mentioning this?
With every new law, there’s a penalty. Sometimes, that penalty is a fine, a warning, or even jail time. Senate Bill 978 proposes that those who violate the law can be sent to prison for up to 5 years. Former White House counsel Hemanshu Nigarn said that “it seems like (the bill) is attacking the core of the internet itself, which is to promote communication amongst people all over the world.” He even worries that a simple school recital could expose students to potential copyright violations.

Good. I'm sick of bad singers and everybody thinking they have what it takes to be a performer. I LOVE this. Lip-syncing is not exactly the way to build your own voice.

Look out Ashley Simpson!
===============
We must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our election between economy and liberty or profusion and servitude. If we run into such debt, as that we must be taxed in our meat and in our drink, in our necessaries and our comforts, in our labors and our amusements, for our calling and our creeds... [we will] have no time to think, no means of calling our miss-managers to account but be glad to obtain subsistence by hiring ourselves to rivet their chains on the necks of our fellow-sufferers... And this is the tendency of all human governments. A departure from principle in one instance becomes a precedent for [another ]... till the bulk of society is reduced to be mere automatons of misery... And the fore-horse of this frightful team is public debt. Taxation follows that, and in its train wretchedness and oppression. - Thomas Jefferson


AND NOW WE ARE BEING BOMBARDED WITH MESSAGES THAT OSAMA BIN LADIN IS PLANNING TO ATTACK THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. AND I'M TELLING YOU, BE PREPARED FOR A MAJOR ATTACK. BUT IT WON'T BE OSAMA BIN LADEN, IT WILL BE THOSE BEHIND THE NWO. IT IS VERY LIKELY THAT THEY WILL STAGE A TERRORIST ATTACK AND IT IS GOING TO BE BID ENOUGH THAT MARTIAL LAW COULD BE DECLARED. - BILL COOPER 06/28/2001 (3 MONTHS BEFORE 9/11)

They want to criminalize everything, then we call all work in their prisons for 29 cents an hour.

Don't worry guys, the popstars will be fine. They can afford the costly licences from the record companies to do their lip-syncing.


It's the regular citizens that are going to feel the heat from this.
