land of the free?

by F.C.

Have you ever felt that someone was listening to you on the phone? Have you ever felt you where being watched? Well now there is someone is watching checking to see what you are talking about. They invade your privacy.Yet you helped them get into power. You elected them, trusting that they would keep you free; but now they are taking away your freedom. That's right, it's the government.They are tapping phone lines at random. No form of conversation or communication is safe anymore since the government has technology that can intercept your email, hear what you're talking about through the phone and in check you in person.That is only one of the many things your government has done that is corrupt deceiving and according to there law illegal. I will expose the truth.

The government isn't only screwing this country it is screwing the other countries too. Actually most of those Mexicans that you want out of here are legal.When the war between Mexico and the U.S was ending there was a treaty signed in a part of the treaty it stated that Arizona's border would always be open. Yet we keep kicking the Mexicans out who should be allowed in.That is a violation of your word that treaty might as well mean nothing.You should be ashamed. Yet, we do this out of fear. We are afraid of those who are not like us, who don't speak our language or who don't share our culture. So, we break an international treaty out of fear and we violate the freedom we supposedly stand for.

There are many other things like the truth behind Iraq's war.Why we haven't found Osama Bin Laden, who is most likely hiding in Pakistan (a nation with nuclear bombs and a dictator). Yet, our soldiers continue to die and we continue to spread lies about why we are there. We say that we are protecting freedom in another country, yet we won't refuse freedom to hardworking immigrants and we are slowly taking freedom away from our own citizens.

They are going to start making everybody who is legal have a drivers license with a tracking device in it. We are moving toward this, because of fear of terrorism. This license is going to tell them where you are what your doing and who's next to you or with you. If congress passes that National ID law, it will invade our privacy that is supposed to be protected with the fourth amendment. I must tell you that congress has not passed this law, but some of the members are trying real hard. I give it five years until this law passes.

Meanwhile, the government is invading your privacy in any way possible.They passed a law called the PATRIOT ACT!!!!! It sounds benevolent, right? This bogus law allows the government to tap your phones check what movies and books you check out. They can read your email and mail and they can listen in on your conversations our having in person.They also have this machine that shows what your doing inside your house. Many people who need to do their research say they don't tap just any ones phones. The truth is they do.They tap phones at random. The Justice Department and FBI have testified to this. They have no pattern at all they just choose at random, so you could be next.
