“If you think it's a bad idea to have an identity card, persuade your fellow citizens.”

SPLAT! Individual rights are like a bug on the windshield of a speeding Porsch.

That bug bites...
I pray that this assault on individual liberties will we repealed and retracted at the earliest opportunity. The message just isn't getting through to Congress, so I've begun trying to educate my fellow man. Radio call-ins, editorials...but it's such a long row to hoe given the loss of so many civil liberties without so much as a whimper from the public.

IT seems that most people, being content to live with all the rights guaranteed a SERF under feudalism, don't understand any loss of those rights up to that point as a loss of freedom. (And you can quote me on that)
