Spent many years programming, mostly mainframes. Been in business for myself, sky dived, scuba dived, practiced karate (until the broken ribs & finger), driven a sprint car (unreal). Want the US to be great again and worry it's impossible. I consider myself a moderate because I believe most Americans don't approve of torture, do want everyone to have health care, a pension and/or a job, privacy, freedom and NO WAR. Not too radical. I use profanity like a sailor so you should leave if you are sensitive.

This idea of outlawing "terrorism", rather than the various acts of violence we call "terrorism", makes me nervous. If I were, for instance, to speculate that the government and our "elected" officials are so out of touch with their constituencies, and that the system is so rigged as to make any removal of said officials from office almost impossible, making the only viable method of change to be Revolution, would that make me a potential domestic terrorist, even though I commit no violent acts or even call for them?
It is a scary bill.
But, considering our country only exists because of revolutionaries, I'm not sure that's a bad thing to be.
I'm probably already classified as a revolutionary.
Its OK. I've been called worse.
