Ive been outspoken to the point of being assaulted several times, and vilified.

speaking out aint easy.

 

[hjmick]

The measures taken since 9/11 are too far.

In addition to my above votes, I would ban the veil, but not religious attire in general.

CND: State Codes Related To Wearing Masks

Anti-mask laws - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 

[Delta4Embassy]

Could probably make the case for identify concealing versions but not others. But I've no love for religion in general so would be ok either way.

 

[The Great Goose]

Does this apply to all extremists?

Religious and political extremism to the point of violence. Wanna forbid advocacy for gay marriage that'd be another thread.

can you be more specific?

From the looks of the responses, some crazies want to shred the Constitution.

Write one that makes sense in the 21st century now, or after they nuke us.

I'm willing to go so far as to suggest that depraved programming be removed from the media so that terrorists aren't so afraid of our depravity spilling over into their culture, causing them to easily recruit their young radicals, similarly shocked and willing to die to erase what they surely see as an unstoppable tide of depravity heading their way. The US leads world trends, dontcha know...

I'm willing to go that far. But when you think about it, the FCC does have a lot of power to stop this terror war. When pornography inches its way into prime time, the world will react. Best to get at a weed at its roots.

What would you choose if push came to shove? Curbing Hollywood's Rainbow Iron Fist, or sparking the flames of global destruction because we don't know how to tell ourselves when enough is enough on depravity?

Our depravity? Guess whose countries can't be bothered to outlaw child pornography?

Patriot Act.

There nothing, absolutely nothing, patriotic about the Patriot Act.

Let's start there...

All of it.

would you like explain yourself a bit? My impression of the PATRIOT act is-----perhaps ?? flawed ?? It is that cops and homeland security guys can monitor
via telephone taps and ---computer "taps" etc-----the doings and communications
of persons suspected of being involved in terrorism. Logically that would mean that
they can "tap" just about anyone----------somehow it does not bother me

Why don't you tell me? We see the bar pushed lower and lower on explicit material aired where children can view it in American media, in shows and publications pitched to pique their curiosity. How far is it really from there to turning a blind eye to child pornography? Maybe we're about 10 years out from that still. But it's coming. That's where all the signs in media are pointing..

 

[Staidhup]

What ever it takes. Under what pretense is the war against organized crime,Waco, Ruby Ridge, any different than that of domestic terrorism.

If you don't understand the roots of terrorism (backlash-fear on behalf of the terrorists), you will never weed it out. That's why whack-a-mole is getting so exhausting. You have to understand why their emotions are so extreme before you can understand why their actions are so extreme.
