Subject: Brasscheck TV: Civil Rights Alert

A colleague has just posted a very important video on a very important topic.

There is pending legislation in the US that would criminalize speech on topics the government deems "threatening."

The law is called H.R. 1955.

It goes by the Orwellian name: "The violent radicalization and homegrown terrorism prevention act."

It quietly passed the House by a 404 to 6 vote and at least one congressman admits voting for it without reading it.

Language in this bill makes it theoretically possible for government agents to shut down sites like Brasscheck TV by claiming that the information we share may insight violence.

Here's how I need your help...

Few Americans even know of the existence of this legislation let alone know what's in it.

The Internet can change that - and your help is needed.

Please go to the site, view the video, and if you are a YouTube member (it's easy to join) rate it, favorite it, and post a comment.

Frequent viewings and frequent posts help.

With enough activity in the next 24 hours, we may be able to make this one of the most popular news videos of the day and raise the profile on this very important subject.

Thanks.

P.S. Please share this e-mail with friends and colleagues.

H.R. 1955 is one of the most dramatic assaults on the right to free speech that I've ever seen.
