The author of SOPA is a copyright violator 
While it's possible that he authored his own political website, I would strongly suspect this is a proxy blame.  I am all for blaming Lamar Smith as much as the next guy.  My issue is assigning a state to an individual when another individual performed the state changing action.  The furthest it is fair to place that assignment is shared with the entire group.edit, apparently downvoting is the same as disagreeing here too.  sigh. guess this teaches me to share my honest thoughts and to continue chasing integers.
