Okay I was surfing and found an article that is pretty interesting. Europe wants to put a stop to "Hate" sites in Europe.

Based on a treaty that went into effect in January, Europe is attempting to shut out racist and xenophobic "hate" Web sites. Meanwhile, a new contact network "operating round the clock and seven days a week," is being set up to provide European police forces with immediate assistance with their investigations.

The result of Europe's actions, however, may not be to shut down such sites. Instead, the United States may become a haven for hatemongers' sites, due to the strength of our First Amendment.

I think the United States has already become a haven for hatemongers on the internet especially terrorists.

The strength of our first amendment isn't that strong. We might end up the same as europe. Sure, it starts with despicable sites like these hate groups, but then it moves on to anything the government doesn't personally agree with. Good job Europe for surrendering to fascism so quickly!
