| Quote (stevestory @ Oct. 11 2007,01:58) | Last week a local university cop told me they're trying to put together a 'Tac Team' in the wake of Virginia Tech. If you follow legal blogs you'll see that local police departments are increasingly using paramilitary-style SWAT Teams to break into your poker game and shoot your dog. Today I see the talk of the news is that a 14 year old has shot up another school. No doubt this will inspire more rules, more surveillance, less liberty.
Are we headed toward a police state? Or not? Discuss. |
Yes.
Well, the official answer is "no", but I'm rebelling.
Fight the machine!

P.S. in all seriousness I think we in the UK are galloping down totalitarian drive, I imagine that you USAians are trying your damnedest too. Hence why I'm a member of Liberty and Amnesty and the British Institute of Human rights and I write those nice letters and all that. Grass roots involvement is the only safe way forward at the present time. Although if Lenny were here he might tell us to smash the system. {sigh} I miss that guy.
