No Rights For The Citizens

Well it seems, as most of you know, that this current administration and congress of ours will take every opportunity to strip us of our rights, all under the guise of Security.

The rights stripping, i can say, has not gotten any better. In fact they will use any excuse to expand it.

Now we already have the government tracking our phone conversations, our email conversations, out internet activity, our banking transactions, all without having to have a search warrant. Even though the Constitution forbids the government from illegal searches and seizures. This all goes back to when England and the other major powers of the day would bust into a persons house, take whatever they saw fit, take land from them, and then put them in jail. Now if the person was found not guilty (which was rare in that society due to the way that courts viewed people charged with a crime, you were guilty even if you were innocent) nothing taken from the person was given back.

Well the new news is that the government is now tracking all of our citizens leaving or returning from Canada and Mexico. So now there is a database that will track when you leave the country, how long you are gone. This is done for ALL citizens.

My question is what is the need to track a citizens travels. The gov'ment proclaims that they need to do this to combat possible terrorism against us on our homeland.

This is the biggest line of Bull i have ever heard. This idea pisses me off. What pisses me off just as much is the most americans will go right along with it, because they believe the hype of Bullsh** spewed by this administration, and they aren't smart enough to see what is really happening.

From what i can remember, the perpetrators of the World Trade Center Bombing in '93 and 9/11 were not US Citizens. They were foriegners here on student visa's. They didn't try to sneak across the border in a truck filled with explosives. They came here legally.

So why is there a need to track our citizens going across the border, when it has been proven numerous time that our citizens were not to blame for this.


Like a founding father once said. "If you give up your rights for security, you will gain neither".

We need to take heed to this statement and fight against the tyranny that this government is pushing.

Viva Liberty!
