that is the dumbest law ever passed by our legislature, and the biggest hit to american civil liberties in years.

And with that said, i will shut the hell up.

"(b) UTTERING COUNTERFEIT FOREIGN OBLIGATIONS OR SECURITIES- Section 479 of title 18, United States Code, is amended by striking `three years' and inserting `20 years'."

You can't mention counterfit securities without a 20 year jail term?

making me a stereotypical american.

and while im in this post, i might as well say that any real patriot would oppose this act.

And we were told to make our lives return to normal after 9/11.

# It's a balance between freedom and safety
you can't have both.

it seems most americans would rather be safer

the balance will continue that way until we need to be protected from the government I suppose

# more congressmen
would rather keep their jobs so they agree with the right wing maniacs.

And it is a fine balance, but there are better ways to protect a people than checking what people take out from the library, and sending people away longer for crimes against their country and making it easier for people to be convicted of those crimes

# it's quite obvious
that the us government is using the events of the past few years and the resulting "fear" as an excuse to bang through all these heavy laws and restrictions which might seem now to be for "your own good" but will in the long run be, er, bad.
