Mexican Attorney General Gets Microchip in Arm

novakreo writes "Rafael Macedo de la Concha, Mexico's Attorney-General, now has a non-removable microchip in his arm, to track his movements and to give him access to a new crime database, according to Bloomberg. The article says that eventually around 160 Mexican officials will have a chip implanted." (Wired and CNN are both running the very similar Reuters report, too.)

  2. Hitler? by ArcherB · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Ya know, I'm tired of the relentless attack on our president. He's not a fascist, he's not a racist, he's not stupid, and he's not bent on taking over the world or the world's oil. I didn't like it when Clinton was relentlessly attacked, and I certainly don't like it now that GWB is given ten times as much. No one called Clinton Hitler. I find it odd that those that stuck up for Clinton and said the attacks were wrong are the same ones that hammer Bush day in and day out. Get off it already. Bush is not Hitler. Bush has not killed 6 million Jews (or any other race for that matter... Saddam has BTW). Bush did not invade France, Belgium, Russia, Poland etc. All the countries "invaded" by the US under Bush were turned back over to local government control, not turned into states or territories. Bush is not Hitler, I don't care how hard you try to make the comparison. Example of hypocracy: Why is it peopel bitch and moan because Bush went into Iraq, (no threat to US? intelligence said otherwise... do a google for russian intelligence iraq attack US.. or just open http://www.themoscowtimes.com/stories/2004/06/18/0 12.html) yet no one said a word when Clinton bombed the snott out of Bosnia without UN or France's approval. If you are going to be that hyporcritical, at least try to be more sly about it! Yeah, it's OT... just responding to another OT post.
