Rights

Our rights are being eroded on a consistent basis. I don't know which ones may still apply tomorrow. You do not need to have committed a crime to be arrested, although at some time you may have done something.... (look at the books, by the way, there are crimes out there that one could not even imagine).

The police often go fishing for a suspect. Their job is to bring someone in. the person they bring in does not have to be responsible for any crime. Just convenient. Oh, and breathing. The only requirement is that you are alive. Once you are dead they lose interest rapidly.

I highly recommend that if at all possible - and I know many of us lead very busy lives - get involved politically. Read the news, write your 'public servants', go to meetings. For every ten attempts to be heard, one attempt might make a difference. We lost Habeas Corpus in this administration - meaning that authorities are no longer even required to make something up to detain you. And this week our Senate did not allow - by vote - the reinstatement of this one of our most precious rights.

Hitler, Stalin, they will always be with us, because it is the dark side of human nature that will always be there and always need to be kept back. It's getting bad again. We need to take this very seriously. And I don't worry about someone's sepllimg and grammar so much; I appreciate the fact that they have taken the time to post a view.
