first amendment under fire right now from DHS

the web site http://www.bushflash.com was taken down with this message in place of it's content
"The website that you are attempting to visit is currently offline, pending investigation of possible violations of §802 of the USA PATRIOT Act."
we need to email DHS to protest this politically motivated
enforcement of the unPATRIOT act

I've just seen another website with a similar message today, offensivecomputing.net (which is a site where computer security specialists upload/exchange malware samples for research) has been closed with a message from Homeland security/FBI saying your IP has been logged for visiting it.

The sites been open for a couple of years and I thought was a legitimate security site, anyone know why it's been closed?

NO JOKE goto the web site
the site was the largest collection of anti right wing multimedia on the web
I guess GWB got fed up with being bashed so badly

Isn't this how police states start off suppressing the those who oppose them

I can see my future now --trip to the U.S. gulag {Gitmo}---interrogations --women guards flashing me -- having Playboy magazines desecrated before my eyes. All because I clicked that site and they know I am here.
