This Silverman is a clown. He's determined to make an Orwellian human market for his product.

Great. Instead of punishing illegals and the crooks who hire them, let's HERD THE LEGAL ONES LIKE CATTLE.

Perfect.

VeriChip... in the game DeusEx there was a compagny of evil people used by even more evil people bent on world domination. It was called VeriLife. It also implanted chips, be it remote controlled termination chips.

How prophetic.

[Kakaze]

I don't want anyone and I mean Anyone tagged like an animal.

Theres no need to get this rfid tagging started because it will be just be the same as this "Tamper Proof" ID card, you give it to one group and the courts will say all or none. This gov't will opt for all, make no mistake about that.

This whole situation really only requires the gov't do one thing. Just enforce the existing Damn Law!

[truemiester]

VeriChips for both Illegals Aliens and Mutants!

tin foil hats for everyone else!

"Great. Instead of punishing illegals and the crooks who hire them, let's HERD THE LEGAL ONES LIKE CATTLE."

Actually, it's a good idea. An excellent way to tell when TEMPORARY visitors to the US overstay their visas. Have'em removed if and when the prospective immigrant reaches "permanent resident" status.

[cripplecreek]

I wouldn't even do that to an illegal alien. I might consider it for the people who hire illegals and congressmen.

If we wind up with an actual guest worker program, tattoo the expiration date in "day glow" ink on their foreheads.

[Barney59]

This one needs a photo of someone with a huge EAR TAG.

Too early for me to photoshop... pretend its radio and use your imagination.

[Condor51]

There's a longer and more detailed article .. HERE.

It has more facts and less hyperbole.

Proposal to Implant Tracking Chips in Immigrants

BTW, the President of Columbia agrees that for Columbian 'temporary workers' in the US it wouldn't be such a bad idea.

"This Silverman is a clown. He's determined to make an Orwellian human market for his product."

Once again, my tagline says it all!

[varyouga]

I thought they already do retinal scans for new immigrants?

[doc30]

That would be a good way to close the border. Instead of tens of millions of visitors to the U.S., there would be next to zero. ANd all the foreign owned comanies that have in sourced to the U.S. would more their operations out of the country. And people delivering good s and services in and out of the country would stay out. It's the perfect plan to isolate the U.S. completely from the rest of the world.

It would be even more true when other nations reciprocate by mandating Americans have chips implanted when they leave the U.S. What's fair for foreign citizens in the U.S. is equally fair for Americans travelling abroad.

[jetson]

Yeah and once they are tracked the government will know where they are so they are out of harms way when this traitorous government starts rounding up legal citizens.

[JimRed]

Mark of the Beast bump!

[stuartcr]

So all the ones that actually go through the checkpoints, will get tagged, and the ones that cross illegally, won't?

[redgolum]

Won't put one in my dog, so why would I sudmit to have one?

[Americanexpat]

Yeah, plant them things in immigrants and illegals, then tomorrow they will plant them in everyone under saying it is for our own good. Hitler, Stalin and Mao would be proud.

[plain talk]

Foreigners? Most of us are foreigners depending on how you draw the line. Yhy stop with foreigners. Let's just implant everyone with a 666 chip on their forehead and be done with it.

[thoughtomator]

Ahead of my time, as usual

[SQUID]

Bad idea NEXT!

[Wiz]

This is good, but I rather have migrants have implants of RFID instead. There is no problem to have them get RFID implants as longs as they obey law and order. When they leave the country, they may have their RFID implant removed. Let's have entering Muslims have RFID implants too. We need to monitor them to prevent terrorism.
