I like the way you talk - this bull**** has gone way out of hand. the IR laws are crap. Even business says why change what is already working. As for the "Patriot" act. Why is it, your only a "patriot" if you agree with the Government ?
And yeah, this whole terrorism thing is giving the government - an excuse to throw in draconian laws that will whittle away at democracy. I may not agree with what the ****heads in parliament say, but damn, I like my right to call them ****heads.
In the end, what are they going to define as a terrorist ? Anyone that dosn't agree with them ? Lets be real, there are some evil dudes out there, but I don't want to see society turned into a security state.
Its pretty scarey right now, the government has to by duty, provide due care for the citizens, but it dosn't take much to change due care, to totalitarianism.
