You're welcome.
I'm a relative newbie myself, but I see what can and will happen to our wonderful nation if we don't start standing up now.
It seems that more recent signups support the erosion of our freedoms, while early "O.G." FReepers stand firm against the "Patriot" Act as well as the FISA "Kafka Court".
I keep going back to those sites and read more and more about them. For FReepers not to see the hazards and threats to our very liberty is disheartening.
I am deeply troubled by statements made by some supporters of the Patriot Act, (ie. 'If you're not doing anything wrong, you have nothing to fear'). Frightening....
God forgive me, I uttered that phrase myself when it was first introduced after 9-11, before I became aware of just what I was willing to trade my freedon for. Nothing is worth my freedom...nothing.
If someone like me can decipher the true meaning of the Patriot Act and the FISA court, some of the more learned on this site should be able too also.
If you click on my name, it'll take you to my homepage, there you can click on 'links'. It's a start. You can do the same for the old-timers on some of the threads there. (if they're still members) Then read some of THEIR links/bookmarks.
If I've told ya something you already know, forgive me. LOL!
I often wonder what it will take to wake the sheeple up to the slowly encroaching tyranny.(even THOUGH it's coming dressed as 'republican')
