Patriot Act II
The Patriot act II is now in in congress . the link is a 12 MB link with the in senate analysis in the beginning and the bill itself at the end. this draft was not supposed to be public until made into law. thus its marked "confidential- not for distribution.
Comments by By Mr. DASCHLE (for himself, Mr. Leahy, Mr. Biden, Mr. Kennedy, Mr. Schumer, Mr. Durbin, Mrs. Clinton, Mrs. Murray, Mr. Dayton, Mr. Corzine, and Mr. Reed)
Among other things ,it provides for dna anlysis,and retention of dna records by the FBI of suspected(but not convicted) terrorists. it also redefines a terrorist as anyone who commits a violent crime.
According to:
Infowars (They have a write up on it (take it as you see it))
Public Integrity (They have a write up on it as well. they also offer the file split into portions for those on dial up.)
I recommend reading the .pdf file before commenting. the analysis was done in-house by a member of congress. i dont know who...Regardless this is not good news,its just another example of how our rights and freedoms are being taken away!!!

The US government is usually very good at keeping secrets and keeping stuff from leaking out. And when stuff does get out, its all over the news on TV. I haven't seen or heard anything about it.. That was my point..Let Google know when your dead | Read More >>

Maybe the Patriot Act was just a test to see if they could get away with it. I woulnt be surprised if the next one allows Bush to take control of Congress and do away with elections.
Some will say "that will not and cannot happen, there are laws against it."
Well, they used to say you couldnt be President without getting elected into office...that was and is currently the law...but guess what, Bush did it..
The Patriot Act just shows what a bunch of idiots we have in Congress. How the hell can they be stupid enough to pass a bill without being allowed to read it???!!!
Next they will be requiring all of us to have a computer chip in our head or wrist for identification.. I mean why not. As you can see, the Patriot Acts are slowly doing away with our freedoms and rights. So forget invasion of privacy, evidently the government will be immune.Last edited by Webdude; 04-26-2004 at 07:01 PM.

And you know what is really sad? There is absolutely nothing we can do about it. We stood by and let it happen, now it's probably too late. Since the government dealt with the various militia around the country before the terrorist issue, I think the government pretty much has it's bases covered..

Yes it could be to late (thought their could be a chance still). The government now these days think anyone is against them if they post anything bad about it, try to protest.

I find it funny they say they are fighting for freedom, but yhet taking the US citizens freedom away at the same time?
Though America is to blame for this to happen (well not all, but for part). If American's stood up and said "No" then we might not be in this spot.I am back....

I don't know what to say, our country will soon be what the Nazi nation could have been... If Bush could, he would run our country like a Fascist, well, regime.

I dont know about the majority, but if the government starts taking away rights, pissing on the Constitution, and all that.....
well, I think there will be some rogue governments, police departments, even military. It would be anarchy and civil war all over again. Most military will protect the people rather than a dictatorship. Those in it for a carreer will say "It's my job, I have to do what I am told" while patriots and loyalists will seperate and form their own groups. It's too bad the feds would still control the nukes, armory, and everything else that would give them the advantage.
Just one thing that would cause a problem for them....that's the fact that most homes in America have guns, and are well stocked on ammo. The people are just as armed as the military...lol

I'm sure after reading up, there were at least a few of our super bright elected that felt like real crap. Because of that, hopefully #2 will never happen.

If you don't like democrats, then vote for republicans, if you think that both are the same sh*t, then vote for the green party, if none of them fill your needs, then get involved in politic.

Well they wouldnt use Nukes on its own country that is for sure it would cause more of an up roar then ever. Though the FBI, CIA, and other groups would help them out alot.
Also with the guns you are correct most people in America (compared to the ones who dont) have guns in their houses, or out side of the house. Where I live most likley 90% if not more have at lease 3 guns in the house . We take care of our people. If some one or some thing hurts a friend we hurt back.
