".....our freedoms are being taken away....."

Just a trivial piece of legislation. Part of the "change" we were promised. Not to worry, they got our backs covered.

I was having a very hard time accepting this so I went to snopes and did a search there.....it came up as a mixture (meaning part right and part urban legend). The only thing I couldn't figure out is which part is the urban legend. Anybody else want to give it a try and let me know how they feel about this? Thank You!

The law says that the military can hold an American citizen affiliated with, or giving aid to certain terrorist groups until the conflict is over as an enemy combatant.

It is what the law does not say that lends credence to the notion that it could be horribly abused - 1) It does not say how someone gets classified as a terrorist or helper thereof; 2) It does not define when the conflict in question will have been determined to have ended; 3) There is no appeal or access to the civilian courts. Habeas Corpus is dead.

In other words, if the powers that be decide that you are an "enemy combatant" they have the power under law to hold you without question until somebody official decides the War on Terror is over.

The opportunity for abuse is there. I doubt we'll see Occupy Wall Street folks, or Tea Partiers get swept up, but the problem is, we may never know.

It is a poorly crafted law that should be revised with clear definitions of everything.

Only if it's a legit website. You can't be too careful . I would probably contact my senator to verify this.

We, as Americans, are being force-fed reality shows on TV. It's part of the take-over to dumb us down. What do we do? Stay informed.

Daily Horoscope for June 4

Sagittarius

Relationships have been going through through testing times since the Solar Eclipse at last month's New Moon in Gemini on May 20. Events may force you to reevaluate the state of a partnership. You may even decide that you need to make some major adjustments if things are to carry on as you would like. During the coming fortnight leading up to the rare second New Moon in Gemini, this may feel like a crisis, but that doesn't mean you should abandon all hope or throw out the baby with the bathwater.
