    80+% of the US public does not want NN rules repealed. When was the last time our government repeal a policy that has 80+% support, or enact a policy that 80+% does not support?

    Rogue FCC.

    Well, into a mild ditch at least. But yeah, it will be really hard to get back to N.N. I would think.

    I would estimate less than 5% know anything about this issue. And it's safe to say many outraged liberals don't know anything about it either but they're just blindly supporting their "side"...

    This is the stuff that will get Zodiak the boot. Texas nearly went for Trump. 9 points.

    By all means, please have the democrats invest as much money as possible (they are broke by the way) in running against Ted Cruz. I think Wendy Davis has a movie coming out. Get her. Please.

    I love the cockiness. It's the stuff that will keep Republicans at home in 2018. Wait till the Dems put in some sort of State medical mar1juana legislation. Then you'll be rushing to get even stronger voter ID in place.

    Hillary was a **** candidate that made Dems stay home. No luck with that this time.

    Again, specious argument without anything to back it up, when there is clear public support FOR net neutrality:

    Poll: 83 percent of voters support keeping FCC's net neutrality rules

    Ajit Pai just handed Republicans a bag of ****

    Now liberal groups are using the repeal to for their own victimization. THAT IS ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE ENTIRE SITUATION.

    What, that poll after poll shows the majority of Americans want Net Neutrality to be left in place. Of course, you can show all the polls showing how the majority of Americans supporting Pai or the overturning of Net Neutrality.

    I'll wait...

    1. The Zodiac calling anyone a snowflake is pretty rich. Dude looks like he would lose a fight to your average toddler and he whines with the best of them.
    2. Texans should be appalled (I won't hold my breath) to have a senator name-calling and mocking the concerns of many of the people he represents. I'm serious. Can you find a democratic senator mocking his constituents?

    Just a bad look, only aimed to fire up his base. What a toad. Glad he's not my senator anyway.

    We’re never going to agree on this, @tallanvor. But, I’m curious: why do you favor ISPs’ arguments over large Internet-based companies? Why do the opinions of large corporations like Alphabet and Amazon not resonate with you? In the doomsday scenario you’re 100% certain won’t come to pass, these large companies would be just fine if smaller competitors faced arbitrary barriers to entry. Are the leadership teams of these companies misguided in their public statements?

    I mean, I think your posts show you barely understand the debate...

    Do you have any data contradicting the 80% stuff?

    I'll also wait...
