The Fourth Amendment’s got nothing to do with it. It has to do with the military’s capability to point and click on any map or computer image and send a missile to blow that spot. If they say, “we want to blow up Candor7’s house”, do you really thing that they can’t precisely locate your house any way except by physically sending someone there to collect the GPS data? They have your address, since they send a mailman there. They have maps. They have guided missiles that send back real time video for targeting. Why do they need to send someone to physically collect the coordinates?

Well, it isn’t the military’s database really. The NGA owns it and they share data with every other federal government department.

Well doe the dtat base have individual names associated with a specific property location?

Seems to me there has to be somme reasonong applied to using a data base for surveillance or execution of a citizen.

Fascis needs no reason except that a person is a politial enemy. The execution simply happens with no safe guards. History shows us that.

The Census data base is specifically open to such fascist abuse.It is an egregious threat to the 4th amendment.

It i s inded a 4th mendment issue. Not a tech issue.

Yiour sherrif know where you life, Yet he cannot enter your home ans hoot you\. What prevents him?

There is nothing in place wheoch would prevent the misue of the census dtat base. Ostensibly it is demograpohic and therefore has no safeguards to abuse in place. Horrible.

There already has been such a database; your county assessors office has such a database as does several other county offices, not to mention driver’s license, voter records, credit card companies, marketing agencies, the postal service and even, yes, even FedEx and UPS maintain such databases.

If you knew how much data is available on you and your house, you would $%#$.

Fortunately, it isn’t all available in one place (yet).

Eerily similar to an early Avengers episode. An RC model plane with attached gun was used for assassinations. Just fly it up to a window, and pull the trigger.

Yes but none of those conpanies have police powers or military powers with which to violate your 4th amendment rights. I swear , people are brain dead on this issue.

The census data base was used toi round up Japanese Americans during WWII. Not the mail data base or the county assessors records.

I give up. Talking to a bunch of brick walls who do not understand how to preserve their own liberty.

Good luck .
