A very good article from der Spiegel online. Hand it to your friends in the left-wing "privacy and peace" sphere, and see how they respond.

Very telling. Power. Power. Power.

Warrants? Not in many cases. It's just a matter of expressing the "wrong" opinions too much. Enjoy that "change" from the criminal Bushies.

Hey, fans of the current Prez: Remember when you thought he was going to "change" things so much from the Bush Admin?

Would you like to be consistent and consider the idea that gubment, in the abstract, is designe dto INVADE your rights and urtail them, not protect them? This insight about the nature of gubment tends to lead people away from the idolitry of politicians and point them more in the direction of free association and free markets, for gubment is insulated from competition. Free markets are not.

This is surprising and encouraging. Kissenger has been part of some of the bloodiest invasions in the 20th century, and the Swiss politicians asking for his arrest also oppose the IMF, World Bank and the EU. Amazing.

Certain members of the FLA Highway Patrol are not only clueless about the 1st and 4th Amendments, they break the very laws about cell phone use at gas stations that the police are supposed to uphold.

Cute.

We knew this would be coming. This was done to set an example, because the feds know there are going to be thousands, if not tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, who are going to default on their student loans. The feds are trying to intimidate those who would consider defaulting. But that's okay. No warrant was issued to the man and the existence of federal student loans is unconstitutional, but none of that really matters. Anthony Weiner is in the news, and people can talk about that, right?!

Check out this video. Not a bad job by the lady recording. Just wish she had mentioned the 4th amendment, and addressed a claim by a man that he thought they should just do profiling. She needed to mention that the very PRESENCE of the feds in the airports is unconstitutional...

So here's the deal. There's this Pennsylvania law that lets the state prohibit and issue fines for private companies hiring people who have been deemed "illegal immigrants" by the federal government.

This is, of course, a violation of the US Constitution's CONTRACT CLAUSE, which prohibits states from passing "any law impairing the obligation of contracts."  (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contract_Clause) States are not supposed to be able to interfere in private commerce. Simple, isn't it?

Despite the fact that there is no statute making it a crime, he is approached by police and told to stop. When he does not, they shift over to the wiretap law, to tell him they have not given him permission to record their voices. Of course, he was alone, and THEY APPROACHED him, knowing that he was recording, so their permission was implicit.

The wiretap law is being used more and more to try to prevent people from recording police engaging in erroneous and nefarious activity. It has nothing to do with wiretapping and everything to do with preventing the public from seeing cops at their worst.

The man recording things, although at times intimidated, held his ground, and was smart about how he handled the cops. They detained him without charge.

Yeah, not only unconstitutional, but the boxes can record all places you've traveled, through gps tech, if the feds order it installed.

Big Brother's got an "electric eye", as Judas Priest might have said.

Why?

Because Rand Paul opposes the reinstatement of the so-called "Partiot Act".

Seems to us that Reid is the criminal.

Yeah, perhaps the mom is learning that having one's money taken away without choice and tossed into a government school system where her kids are propagandized and she has very little say over what happens inside -- perhaps she's learning that this is a system where this kind of thing can happen any time, done by school officials or feds or state bureaucrats, and she will be able to do NOTHING.

Welcome to the "Village". Enjoy the "common good", dear.

In some eyes, the action of Starbucks firing a dwarf will be seen as the "Big Guy" literally harming the "Little Guy". But what is really at stake here is the principle of private ownership and control of one's property, private contract without interference from politicians,  business responsiveness to consumers and employees, and competiveness.

Then there is the US Constitution. It does not give Congress the power to pass bills that interfere with how people operate their private businesses, how they engage in private contract, or how consumers freely choose where to do business. It also PROHIBITS state governments from interfering in private contract.

This is added to the already criminal activity of the searches themselves, the presense of the TSA in airports and the very existence of it at all.

And, don't forget, the porn screeners they are installing in the airports, and which have made former Homeland "Security" Tsar Mikey Chertoff VERY rich, allow for the storage and transport of the images they take.

Remember, the paradigm of federal involvement in airport security and air traffic control is unconstitutional. It would better address customer interests if we had a market system and no government involvement.

Check our audio library for the history of how the federal gubment got involved in air transport fascism.
