Ooh. This is the first thread I've started (on any boards). =)
Anyway, I wanna know what y'all think about some of the new laws that have been made or bills that have been presented to Congress. For example, I've heard about a new "law" (not sure if it's a law, so "" it is) that allows the government to search your home without a warrant. Also, the law(s) that allow our government to hold hundreds of people without telling the prisoners why they're in jail, or telling anyone the prisoners ARE there. Anyone else heard about these, or others? Opinions?

Nope, I've never heard of these new 'laws'. What's with society and the government these days? I mean it seems like just because their a 'higher' part of society then citizens are- that their capable of doing such a thing. If their even thinking about making laws like that, I don't think anyone will hear of it. Where'd you hear of this?..

Sounds like they're made to protect conspiracies.

I'm pretty sure many of those laws you described only apply to foreigners who have overstayed their visa and are suspected of terrorist links.

It'd be nice to see some of Hammurabi's laws make a comeback.

I too think this has to do with keeping terrorists in check. I doubt someone is going to come to your door without probable cause or a search warrant unless you're delinquent on a traffic ticket or really messed up.

I don't think that just because the government is higher up on the totem pole then the rest of us means they can arrest people and not tell them why or come search your house without a warrent that is a bunch of shit. I mean, if you are a delinquent on a traffic ticket, That doesn't mean your dangerious to society (unless it's a d.u.i were you should be arrested). If their doing it to Keep terriosts in check, they need more then Oh well he or she looks like a terriost so we searched the house. On the other hand if they searched and found evidence of a soon-to-possibly-be-a-terriost-attack then It would be a good thing because it prevented another tragidy Okay well this post is totally contridicting itself but okay. Oh, and Toxic just cause i'm quoting some of the stuff you said i'm not tring to pick on you or anything it was just there. and yes, some of Hammurabi's laws would be nice okay now that i'm done rambling I'll leave  |
