The For Real Deal

People who know me know that I’m not really into politics. Slowly, however, I’m becoming aware that ignorance is no longer an option.

Since the WTC terrorist attacks four years ago, the U.S. Government is taking drastic steps to stop terrorism. That would be really positive, except… they’ve chosen to fight terrorism by eliminating our rights as citizens. The more that I read about the PATRIOT Act, the sicker I get. It’s time to stand up. I’m not kidding.

Please, follow this link to a page on the EFF’s website concerning the upcoming vote on PATRIOT’s renewal (certain parts of the act are set to expire later this year). There will be a form on that page where you can contact your representatives to tell them to vote against this act.

Let’s lose no more of our freedoms. Let’s get some of them back.
