1) A large oil company seizes www.stevejordanbooks.com for refusing to stop selling "Chasing the Light"
2) The city of Mobile Alabama seizes www.mobileread.com because they refuse to block access to "Fanny Hill" and apparently it has some naughty bits.
3) Taylor514ce seizes www.google.com
4) ZP seizes www.zeldapinwheel.com
5) Brazil seizes www.amazon.com to save the rain forest
6) Barcey seizes 150 porn sites but they slip between his fingers...

Well people have asked me, "How did you break your finger? Did someone punch you in the nose and kick you in the ass?" That means I have fingers right?

Actually, it was Tennessee (which is next to Kentucky ....).

It also was apparently a huge publicity stunt that got way out of hand.

While I don't specifically disagree, I will ask the question: "What is law, if not an expression of the fundamental morality of the People?"

Well, when government works the way it's supposed to, anyway.

Except if you read the article, they even outright admitted that this time it was less about the morality and more about the money. Horse track racing (and tourism) revenue was down because of internet gambling..... gasp
