Coming to a war torn country near you:

National Id cards with biometric data.
Video cameras and facial imaging software in most public places.
Roving wire taps.
Email monitoring.
Encryption key registration on all security systems.
Random check points on the highways.
Wider snoopervision of bank accounts.
Wider snoopervison of militia groups, churches, and private organizations.
Increased police forces with paramilitary tendencies.
Increased "collateral damage" of innocent civilians by our own police.
Increased monitoring of newspaper reports and censorship of papers.

On and on so it goes. Create a crisis then solve it with more money and more centralized power.

All in the name of a war that is the direct failure of American politicians to deal with foreign relationships. These politicians have failed us miserably.

These are old, some have been accepted, some have not.

(if you want to talk about rights violations, let's talk about the government interference in the business and practice of medicine)

This crisis has not created any new violations of our rights and we should make sure that it doesn't, but there's no need to be pessimistic. I could go around moaning that the current crisis will result in nationalized health, but that's an old cause of the left, not a new reaction.

I prefer to see that we have a re-awakening of interest in the US and what she stands for and a conservative, strict Constitutionalist President in office.
