the sad fact is.......they most liekly will get away with whatever they decide to do. Think about it. Most of america gets it's news from the tv, alot from the Daily Show ( I'm not knocing it, it's a great show, just not to be taken seriously.) Also most of america doesn't care about anything political, unless someone is on life support or about to have an abortion. We're lucky that we get the turnout we do at the polls for the presidental election every four years. The majority of the populace is perfectly happy to sit in front of the tv and listen to whatever the reporters and newscasters tell them.

Yes, the internet has brought on a new wave in free speach, and political discussions, but this is still in the minority as far as people actually utilizing the net for these features. People are sheep, they will be led.

As far as the UN is concerned, can you give me one good reason why we should ever be worried about what they think? Who makes up most of the UN's troops when they mobilize? That'd be the US. The UN may have been a good idea back in the day, but it's nothing to get excited about now. As a matter of fact, this whole nation of the free thing was a kick ass idea back in the day, but we're slowly losing it now.

This isn't the only aread where the people are being fucked. In the past few years, there have been several bills regarding use of electronic devices. I even saw one that could ban every vcr, video camera, digital camera, cd or dvd burner, it was fuckin psycho. But the big companies want to protect their profits, no matter what the average person has to lose.

The patriot act isn't really the problem. At it's current stage, it's only a gateway to worse happening in the future. It's not the search for terrorists that bothers me, it's the very real fact that anyone with an unpopular belief can and will be labeled a terrorist. Think about it, the US government did it to political protesters a few decades ago. Flash forward a few decades and they have alot more resources to throw at anyone unpopular in their eyes.

I've written a few emails and letters, and I'm gonna continue to write as much as I have to to get my voice heard on this issue. If my freedom is gonna go down, I'm gonna go screaming bloody murder with an axe in my hand.

I have always said that there would be a revolt against the govt. in my lifetime.

Am not really sure how all that is going to play out. I am looking for the next terrorist attack to happen and then more restrictions against us.

Any more room for a family of 4 over there in South Dakota?

Wife and I visit there often. Have been thinking of buying a small ranch outside of Mitchell.
