#4 any doubt? Leftists and whackos are the worst of the societal control freaks - tolerance for me, but not for thee

#5 OK, can I say it:

Bill of Rights
Amendment I

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

And you, dear San Francisco Board, are no Congress. Where does the Constitution say that you have to pay a registration fee when you say your opinion?

And btw, what are 500 hits? EVERY blog will have 500 hits eventually. Even if it's meant per day, this advisor doesn't even know the difference betwen "hits" and "unique visitors".

#6 Next Fred will be expected to require registration so he can find the SF commenters and bill them a buck a comment on behalf of the SF Ethics Committee.

#7 You know this is aimed at any conservative bloggers who live in the city. Yes they are the facists and can't deal with dissent.

#8 It is amazing proof of how far we have gone down the road to lefty totalitarianism that people do not riot in the streets over this proposal. Naturally, the institutional media support this provision, since it undermines their competition, and it is equallly natural that hard-core media culture conformists (the so-called "left") would support it.

This is an ideal opportunity for civil disobedience on a massive scale.

If it passes, I suggest that Fred set up a special Rantburg page for SF-related anti-idiotarian blogging, with complaints, insults, endorsements, and other locally proscribed behavior. We can call it "Radio Free Frisco."

#9 I can set up a mirror for any anti-SF blog y'all want.

#10 I suppose the Frisco commissars and their apparatchiks might sue us in civil court for inciting illegal activity or conspiring to circumvent censorship.
Here is my response in advance:
I live in Texas. Bring it on!

#11 Board of Supervisors website for censor-in-chief Sophia Maxwell, the sponsor of this ordinance.

#12 I doubt any SF ruling would be enforceable in America - don't you have to be a citizen? They can kiss my ass
