I had done this for my Drawing II class for a Social Commentary piece, in which we used art to convey a stance on a political issue. In the spirit of the blackouts today I figured it was a good opportunity to post this up.
From the FA Header:
While we at Fur Affinity feel that fighting online piracy is important, the heavy-handed SOPA and PIPA bills proposed by the US Congress would have a chilling effect on our ability to conduct business.
Learn more about SOPA and PIPA.
If you live in the US, please contact your senators and representative and ask them to vote these bills down. The bill numbers are H.R. 3261 and S. 968.
If you live outside the US, please spread the word to your US-based friends and family. If you use sites with US-based domain names or US-based search engines, then these bills will affect you, too.
Press Ctrl+F5 to see the protest banner, if you can't already see it.

In this country, you might think you're free, but go ahead and try something... Anything..
These bills are just another assault on the freedoms that we think we have been given, The Gov't is scared, scared their regime is going to end due to the fact that the current system is: broken, ineffective, and out dated.
There are a lot of videos on YouTube describing, and actually showing, incidents with police actually attempting to arrest people for the simple reason that they want to use their cuffs. Things like asking directions, video taping an officer on patrol, etc.
We have the technology for a real, TRUE Democracy, wherein everyone votes on everything that's relevant to their area, instead of the current Republic/Representative democracy we're in now.
In my opinion, True Democracy is the only way to keep the general population from eventually having the need to rise up and rebel to get things set straight.
