Wasn't sure whether to post this under Look what I found on the Internet or Seriously though.

The scary part is that it's probably not that far off from happening :eyebrow:

Thats not going to happen, but far scarier things already have. In america it is possible to arrest someone for considering doing a crime that will not work.
If you buy Castor beans (a source of Riccin) and mash them up, even though the mashed beans are no more toxic than a whole pile of other household materials you can get sent down for making a WMD (I don't know when Poison became a wmd either).
To actaully make proccess Riccin is much harder than that, but the punishment fits the crime they'd thought up, not what would actually have happened.
If you were born in a certain country or have visited certain countries on your travels you can be locked up in Guantanamo untill you proove you're not a terrorist.
It's strange how paying extra for a Pizza because it's unhealthy, gets more attention than their bill of rights being dissolved.

PS. Not saying you're wrong, but really, it's a helluva leap you're making from a flippant swf.

That's pretty nonsensical as you've got no comment point of reference to base that on.

Life is thus. People are far more concerned with trivia than with reality - which is why there's 300 lifestyle / celebrity magazines and only handful of factual/commentary ones.

Yeah, it does a bit. :P Although of course, this is a very extreme example of what could be implemented in the future, i hope. :narnar:
