Maegan.
2 thumbs up.But,how do I know you are not an FBI,posing as a good guy,trying to get people into trouble.That is the real problem,because we know, we are being monitored.12 more years of this bull...,according to Secretary of Defense,will land us right into "1984". |

Maegan.
Do you even know what I've meant by saying:
"British are going through the same thing with the ID issue".(ID cards)
I watch international news.Do you?
They are going through the same thing,predicted by George Orwell.
Age of surveillance upon us. |

Theoretically we are going to have ID cards. Of course, they've been talking about it for years now and Parliament still hasn't got around to doing anything much about it... |

I'm on your side.

Prove you wrong in what way?
It's usually a major issue. No denying that.
But we're not much further on with it than we were two years ago.
That's all I meant. |

Well.I don't live in UK.
But,if you represent Scotland Yard,then I wish you " Good Day Sir".You definitely do not belong to benevolent beings on this planet, |

Any sensitive Brit would reply differently,when G.Orwell's name would have been menchened.
Good Day Sir/Miss/Mrs Boo. |

You're a strange person, you really are.
And don't start with the whole George Orwell thing. I don't approve of ID cards, but that has nothing to do with how close they are to perhaps making some sort of law that would insist we carry them.
And I have no idea where you got the whole 'Scotland Yard' thing from. |

n3, even if we're not part of a government organisation, there's always someone watching what you're up to. Get over it already! |

Don't insault G.O., by dismissing him,like he never existed and never predicted ,what is going on right now in the world.
Have you even read the "1984" or "animal farm"? |

Yes I have. Several times.
I'm not dismissing him, he just had nothing to do with what I was saying.
I shall restate it:
Yes, there are theoretically going to be ID cards (which I do not approve of). However, the plans for them are moving very slowly.
Whether or not it is in the manner of Big Brother is irrelevant to my post. |

n3, I've read both. But what makes you think '1984' was a prediction? It was merely a warning, and related to 1948 (1984 is just the revrsal of the last two digits of that year). It was concern whether the world, in the aftermath of the war, would really turn to democracy again, instead of being run by the military. |

Allright n3, we've traced your IP and got you surrounded. Resistance is futile. Come out with your hands above your head.... |

Well, Jamie...what is going on in my home is that I'm struggling to raise a child with my husband. We're barely make enough to survive on & can't afford to live in the town where I grew up. I worry about my brothers, but other than that - the war is happening and it doesn't consume my life. I wish there wasn't a war, but it's not any reason to spit on soldiers or not support my brothers in what they do. Heck if my brothers had been bums, I'd still support their desire to just sit around.
n3 - I dunno how you'd know I wasn't an FBI agent. I do live & work very closely to MacDill AirForce Base. So I COULD be a spook, as I've got the means. But seriously - I'm much too busy having a mediocre job with nice benefits to be in the FBI. I just haven't the time.
I don't watch international news, unless pausing on BBC world news b/c I like the accents counts. I spend a few minuts on the local news at night - long enough to see what tomorrow's rain chances are and if the Interstate will be blocked. (Although, I don't use the interstate to get to work - I just like to know that IF I have to use it, I can.)
And I'm not sure what ID thingies you're talking about. But most everyone in the U.S. has some sort of I.D. Most I.D.s are just driver's licenses, or military I.D.s, but you can get a state issued I.D. card, this way if you don't drive you can still buy beer or cigarettes, or see an R rated movie, or buy porn stuffs. Well, assuming you look old enough you don't need an I.D., but it helps. |

Um, n3, what makes you so special that you think the government wants to watch you all the time? |

M.
I would just feel better,when I know,that I have all those freedoms,which I may never use.
But it's nice to know,that they are still out there. |
