13. At least for a while.
But Patriot Act II may be on the horizon.

The SCOTUS will follow over the next two years.

And then there are always the crazies who may now feel entitled to form 'squads.'

5. Just be very careful
Be on guard. Agents can come to your home when you least expect it and for outlandish things. The things that happened with the peace activists and protesters is only going to intensify. Next will be the gay community I fear.

6. ALERT! A way to fight...
I can't start threads yet... please somebody start a topic...

We must check for our names on the voter rolls. If you voted (particularly absentee) and your name is not on the voter roll, then your vote was thrown out. If we discover something big we might still have a chance.

7. Take this a little more seriously
My daughter, who is politically active, was followed across the midwest to NYC by an FBI surveillance team this summer. The state of New York is trying to send her to prison for 3 years for participating in the RNC protests (she did nothing violent, no property damage, no injuries, just ran down a street). You'd better keep your head down and not draw attention.

8. Yeah I don't doubt it
I've been putting together my site about PNAC (http://www.pnac.us) and my best friend just told me I better have my i's dotted and t's crossed.

Anybody seen Ashcroft lately?

10. I'm not taking down my anti-George page
http://www.dvorkin.com/ddgwb.htm

It's been there for quite a while, and it stays as long as I do.

If it suddenly disappears . . .

11. I have noticed quite a bit of .gov hits on mine lately
Plus I was on the front page in a local newspaper protesting the war. Hopefully that's enough visibility.

17. .gov and .mil on mine
My son, who was in the Air Force, says that some people with desk jobs and night shifts do some Web surfing, so those hits could actually be from sympathizers.

That's the optimistic view, of course.

15. The Lights are going out.....Will They ever come back on ?
We live in the land of the evangelized & complacent....the majority is going one direction & I am going another....but this is our land....this is our home......we cannot up & run... we must express our opinions & defend our beliefs ....and cite these people for what they are....consenting participants in an ignoble regime...just like Hitler's willing executioner's


WHICH SIDE ON YOU ON BOY ? WHICH SIDE ARE YOU ON ?

16. I really don't care.
If I have to be careful about everything I say, I'd rather be in prison because they can't stop me from hating them or rob me of my mind.
