All public records are mined for information and then made available to anybody who is willing to pay a small fee. Our movements and conversations can be tracked clandestinely or overtly, and we can't stop it. Even our automobiles keep track of our speed and our braking. This information has been used in legal procedings. <br /><br />Although most law enforcement agencies use GPS to track criminals, the current administration may have a very different definition of who a criminal is. Remember who it was that Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano labeled as the greatest domestic threats to America? She named former military personnel, rightwingers, and Tea Party patriots. So, those of us who support the Constitution are the enemy of the administration and therein lies the potential problems with this additional loss of privacy - we might be tracked based solely on our political opinions. If that isn't scary, what is? <br /><br />Political prisoners are not new in this country, just look at those who opposed Woodrow Wilson. History does repeat itself. How long before Tea Party patriots, for example, are locked up merely because they opposed the progressives in power? <br /><br />Molon Labe <br />From My Cold Dead Hands<br /><br />NoCal GalAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
