more news from the civil rights trenches. it’s not enough that it hasn’t been a year and so many of our freedoms have been stripped away from us. now tom ridge is thinking that the military should assist in policing our country. next thing you know there will be interrogations of gramma smith in michigan because everyone knows that michigan is a breeding ground for terrorists.
for a look at the current state of the bill of rights since the terrorist attacks, look here. please note that amendment III, that soldiers shall not be quartered in a civilian house without the consent of the owner in times of peace, is the next on the list of our civil rights to be put aside in the war on terrorism. oh wait, it’s a “war” on terrorism, so i guess they can house soldiers in my house.
well, it would be nice to see my brother again, or maybe have bill miller’s wife, donna, come visit.
you might want, while you still can, to disappear for a while…
meanwhile i’ve been trying to find some conservative opinion on the whole issue of citizen spying. i found a place called townhalldotcom that touts itself as a conservative forum. happily i found these articles. and while i don’t necessarily agree with all of the opinions (like shutting the doors to immigration, though slowing them might well be welcome so we can control that flow), the ideas ar the same. america is on it’s way to a police state stalinist russia would have been proud of.
