Interesting website that deals with illegal wiretapping etc. and precautions that we can take.
In its annual review on human rights around the globe, the US State Department reports that while most countries have either Constitutional or legal protections of privacy, there are widespread abuses of privacy rights.

Gee, aren't you glad you live in the U.S. where the government respects the Constitution? |

"Sniper rifles: the lethal - and legal - weapons of war" Op-Ed by Tom Diaz:
"Have you heard about the booming sale of .50-caliber sniper rifles on the civilian market? Consider what one writer had to say about these guns, capable of slicing through an inch of armor plate as if it were so much butter" -Tom Whines.
Does anyone think it a coincidence that suddenly the never-used-in-a-crime .50 caliber is making headlines now that Bob Stewart has regained his rights? |

Backers of the anti-gun lawsuit movement, which is loosely fashioned after the successful legal attack on the tobacco industry, say the pro-gun lobby shouldn't go half-cocked by declaring victory just yet. More than half of the lawsuits � including actions brought by Boston, Atlanta and a dozen California communities � either survived motions to dismiss, await hearings or are in the discovery stage. |

"The two candidates for attorney general [in Virginia] jumped on the DNA testing bandwagon yesterday by proposing that people be tested before they are convicted of a crime."
"In the candidates' proposals, the DNA would be kept on file even if the person arrested is acquitted."
The Richmond-Times Dispatch doesn't think much of this idea:
"The problem today is not too much privacy, but too little." |

The City of Fresno wants the truth from its workers, not the whitewash that some boss wants them to hear!!
"If the council takes the oath plunge, City Attorney Hilda Cantu Montoy said, it might be the only city in the United States to force its employees to swear to tell the truth when answering council questions."
KABA NOTE: This oath should be required in all departments, nationally, to protect the citizens from governmental fraud and abuse.
Of course, the departments that have an oath today don't respect it at all.... |

When Kate (not her real name) goes to a movie, she wonders what the people next to her would think if they knew she had a loaded gun in her purse.
...
"Most of my friends know that I carry a gun. I'll be with somebody, and they'll feel a little bit funny ... and they'll say, 'Do you have your...' and they won't say it. [They'll say] 'Do you have your protection?' And I'll say, yeah, and they'll go, 'Oh good.' |
