Will a views of people outside the US count?

You can petition the State Department Bongodriver.

No, especially if they want to deport you for any of the things that are legal in the UK but aren't in the USA.

Last month I contacted my local Representative and state Senators telling them to fight against SOPA/PIPA, I'll do it again soon.

IMO these bills are bad, bad, bad.

"There was once a nanny-goat who said,
In my cradle someone sang to me:
"A strong man is coming.
He will set you free!"

The ox looked at her askance.
Then turning to the pig
He said,
"That will be the butcher."

Bertolt Brecht

Hell, they don't even listen to we citizens anymore, so your totally out of consideration.

UK does not protect its citizens? A hair-raising revelation. I would not be surprised if this happened in Russia or any 3rd world country. Sorry but it looks as if UK had lost its independence.

Kind of "evidence" Stalin's or Putin's court would use. To me it seems as the only connection to the US is that someone in the US does not like this. Human rights is a myth even in good old Europe. Ahh... This world is doomed. Orwell's "1984" slowly comes true. Those who print money order the music :)

BTW, from here it seems that Germany or France are much more independent from the US, at least it was obvious in Tony Blair's time.
