>>> Difendiamo gli emendamenti con un blog carico in mano

Weblogs bring Second Amendment logic to the First Amendment.
The Second Amendment means everyone gets to have a gun. 
 The First Amendment means everyone gets to say what they want to say. But a limiting factor on freedom of speech has been that the tools of mass communication have been unavailable to most individuals. Some people are more equal than others.
 Now push-button publishing onto the Web means everyone gets to have a printing press and a distribution network. 
 Weblogs won't undo professional media, any more than personal gun ownership has undone the military. But many Second Amendment advocates believe an armed citizenry provides a check on the government. Arming people with weblogs certainly provides a check on corporate media and the government.
If the pen is mightier than the sword, this could be a very positive development.
