If you support SOPA by not going to this site, good for you. Except I don't support SOPA! Though I want SOPA to make fanfics or fanarts illegal.
EDIT: Damn the typos!

From someone with a name that sounds like a group of male cupids spreading love throughout society. I'm amused.
And I like looking at fanart and reading fanfiction.

Do you mean
this site? I assume not
Except I don't SOPA!

Would you care to explain this?
Though I want SOPA to make fanfics or fanarts illegal.
Why should that happen?

Ah hell, Since I posted this, does it mean I'm going to jail for 5 years? Oh wait, I'm Canadian!

In a supposedly free country like the U.S., the goal should be to make as few things illegal as possible! Certainly, you should at least have the right to think, write, draw, and say what you wish!

Funny you brought that video up considering Hitler was able to gain political position and power thanks to corporate sponsors.

Why would you want to make fanart illegal?

SOPA is absolutely ridiculous. It’s just the movies studios power grab and it would indeed give them unprecedented powers (like the power to extradite, making this an international problem).

No SOPA.
Why would anyone be against fanart or fanfic.

Just the terrible ones, like the character pairings, which are much like fanfics.

Eh, I think it's all harmless, as long as the fans aren't profiting off characters they don't own. And the bad stuff's easy enough to ignore.

Why would SOPA limit free speech. All know is that it's supposed to stop piracy.

Yeah, you don't want to fuck with Anonymous(4chan). You piss them off you get your ass handed. and that's exactly what the government will be getting if SOPA or any of this crap happen.
However this isn't the best option go.
The best to open these fucktard's greedy fatass eyes is by having google youtube etc shutdown on it's own, and let those fuckers really see how much these sites they really do depend. They will realize that they will be losing money rather than gain money.

You should be illegal so we can deport your ass off.
If your no serious about this, then gtfo of the discussion. That shit is least of our worries atm.

though there is some hopeful good news. Many politicians are starting to see and regret supporting the bill after hearing and seeing so many angry people over it.
Here's a chart show politicans now current stance:
