Henry Rollins Speech for Net Neutrality

Henry embraces the theme that our freedoms are under attack in America. He contends that politicians, media and corporations are leading the assault.

The Internet is the last true bastion of freedom. But not for long. The legislation is just around the corner prevent us from being able to express ourselves as we wish. Sites like this, free today will not be tomorrow. We will be paying AOL and the other providers to have our sites on the Internet. FCC type regulation of content will be right there with it.

I cannot do justice to Henry's speech. The passion he brings to the subject is completely engaging and his language choice is, well, quite pointed.

It is a short rant, only 2.5 minutes. Go watch it on You Tube. See if it inspires you as it has me.
