Reason for This Blog
Scenario
The United States Government does something really bad and tries to silence blog commentary and social network discussion in an effort to silence dissenting voices.
Problem
All my other blogs are hosted by American based companies. They would have to comply with any government order to shut down certain voices. (Notice I did not say "legal order" above.
Solution
Bear Blog is not based in the USA. So that means the US Administration would have to jump through a few more hoops just to get an order or decree to a foreign country. Said order may not be legal in a foreign country.
So this blog is a sort of backup, just in case, for the next four years (at least.)
It may also be that I might decide to move all my American political commentary to this blog, just to give people a break. As I think of that, It might be likely.
Anyway we will see what happens.
