Anti-Patriot Act Movement Expands

MFS! writes "Mount Shasta, California has become the latest city where the USA PATRIOT act is creating a controversy. This story at the Record-Searchlight describes petitioning by a local citizens' rights committee to order police to defy the PATRIOT act. To date, 3 states and 130 cities have passed legislation forbidding local authorities from cooperating with federal PATRIOT requests, not to mention the numerous businesses who are taking pains to hamper the Act's coverage."

Yeah, but how can you put food on your family? Perhaps I am misunderestimating the President's command of the English language?

At the moment I'm reading this, both are modded Funny. The moderations fluctuate quite a bit sometimes before settling down on something that's (hopefully) fair. Different moderators do have different opinions.

I dont care how pretty you are, you cant go around damning conservatives. I dont care what you think you know, jesus was white. Why would I listen to someone like you? You thump bibles, thats blasphamous. You shouldnt do that to bibles.

Re:(-1, Blatant Liar)

I told you, I *am* a conservative. Besides, you obviously don't know the meaning of "Bible-thumper" (although you sound like you're trying to be one). Go into any Southern Baptist church and tell me you don't know what a Bible thumper is.
