Sorry but this has been like this forever. This is nothing new. If your broadcasting a signal that everyone can hear you don't think that's a national security issue to make sure that is clamped down and monitored?

you have to be out of your mind to want something like that go rampant.

Once again the fear mongers strike again.
 
Actually thisisme the 2nd amendment was written exactly for that reason, they wanted to grant protections from criminals and corrupt governments, try reading the federalist papers.
 
[citation][nom]surfer1337dude[/nom]Bad argument, only because the right to bear arms was not orginally intended to be used like that (although the amendments were written to be interpretted because of changing times, but I digress and dont want to start this kind of topic)Either way I think that the courts should change this though since times have changed.[/citation]
You must have been taught about the Constitution and the Bill of Rights by people who know absolutely nothing about them. The 2nd amendment was gives us the means to protect our other rights and the founding fathers designed it that way.
 
Funny...no, sorry, its not funny, just sad actually...how many insidious laws that were created in the 30's, are still on the books today. "Stamp act" of 1937, anyone?
So long as people are comfortable letting others tell them what there morals should be, brainwashing wont even be necessary. I'm not a conspiracy theory nut, but its not hard to find corruption in any place where people hold power over others. Just so sad that it all comes down to choices people made for the benefit of themselves.

Sad that in a country so full of abundance, that we have so much greed as well.

You have no idea how this country was founded do you... Time to go read up on your history, and not the one in that bible of yours.
So much of our rights are derived from the knowledge that those in power are easily corrupted, and the "People" are often the victims of that corruption. We are constantly turning into a nation that our forefathers were trying to save us from, after fighting a war with a tyrannical government who did not respect personal rights for the people who started this nation.

How much personal freedom are we to give up for the "perception" of safety?

Are you serious?!? That was EXACTLY the idea they had. The 2nd amendment was for the reasons of defending yourselves, not only against thugs, but primarily against our own government as they had just got done FIGHTING A WAR against a tyrannical government for the reasons of not respecting basic human rights of the people! How many people still think that people are "just reading the phrasing wrong" in those lines, but don't find any other places where those "hack writers" screwed up the phrasing... This is why teachers should not just pass kids to keep them in their own age groups... Most American kids, and many adults, do not even know the constitution or the reasons it was written. I can not even express the sadness or concern, that little bit of knowledge brings me.
 
I dont live in America but I gotta say ARE YOU KIDDING ME.

The implications of this story are very large. Your talking about having to let virtually ANYONE into your home on the basis they are "who they say they are"..... Maybe they have a badge, a license etc saying they are these people.

If you have kids, a wife etc. Your talking about RISKING their lives possibly on the basis the person at your door might be one of these people wanting to enter and by law is aloud to.

Where is the right to privacy, the right to have rights......

I know speaking from an Australian point of view there is NO WAY I would randomly led some strange men into my house to look at anything if I didn't know them or had invited them in.

NOBODY would barge into my home. Let them threaten you with a fine, if they fine you........ go after them through the courts because fact is........ they could be casing your joint to steal stuff, be child molesters, want to harm your family or terrorise you etc.

Thats not being parinoid, thats FACT.

America needs to wake up and smell the HUMAN RIGHTS again.......
 
It's great how our governments seems to want to ignore the fourth amendment. No one should have the right to enter your house or personal property without a warrant and probably cause of some sort of illegal activity.

We keep taking baby steps in the wrong direction.
 
"the amendments were written to be interpretted because of changing times"

No, the constitution was written to be ammended because of changing times. The ammendments actually mean what they say, and intentionally misinterpreting them is dumb and evil.
 
Isn't it interesting how all of this spying was a huge problem with Lib's when Bush was in office, but now that Affirmative Action got into office, they turn a blind eye.
