The Government's New Right to Track Your Every Move With GPS

Is anyone else surprised that CSS actually posted a legitimate news story without a ridiculous amount of anti-government spin, huge exaggerations, or--

Oh well... He came close. Good try, CSS. This is still a huge improvement over your usual InfoWars crap. This does look like a serious issue, and though it currently only affects eight states, sets a dangerous precedent for the rest. Only solution I see is to get the federal or state legislatures to draft a law to cover this scenario, and make sure that's brought under the umbrella of wiretapping (Or SOMETHING that would require a warrant). The only argument against that is that it's the same as having a police car "tail" you. The difference, though, is that this could be left on and monitored indefinitely for minimal cost, while a "tail" requires an actual use of manpower, so is only done when the police are actively building a case. So, start writing your congressman and senator, CSS... You actually have a valid argument this time. Just try not to curse at them... They tend to ignore that sort of drivel.

You are slightly mistaken here. Your government may be misguided, it might be making choices you don't agree with, but it is not evil. People who rationalise the murder of millions by industrialised genocide are evil.

Perhaps you don't understand illegitimate power, and what it can do to people. The government is evil. It is a sickly kind of evil.

Now you're just changing the subject. Are you going to write your congressmen, or just complain on a forum that no politicians care about?

So you'll write the next guy? You know whoever comes after him will be pretty much the same... They all are. Like you said, The "D" and "R" are pretty much meaningless. A politician is a politician.

I am absolutely against the patriot act, and Bush was Obama lite. You are an idiot, this isn't about who has a R or a D next to their name, its about liberty vs tyranny. Fucking moron. Obama renewed the patriot act, what do you think about that?

Come back when you've lived in a country with NO choices. Where the government is unelected. You have no idea what so ever what evil is. Go back to cooking socks.

So just leave the country, if you don't like it. I am sure, highly trained employees like yourself will easly find a new job wherever they want. I mean, a young aspiring chef, developer and pharmacist... you have all chances in the world. Hahaha!

Questioning property rights, liberty, and the most basic and fundamental long standing moral principles. Yes, that's liberal.

"Liberals" nowadays (in America at least) lean toward an unconstitutionally powerful central government, with few rights reserved for the states or the citizens who live in them. It's not a misrepresentation of the word "liberal" so much as it is the American Left having started down this dangerous road some years back. Political/social conservatives here are far more likely to support property and privacy rights than are those who identify themselves as being liberal. Though more related to property rights than privacy, a good example of this is the case of Kelo vs. New London[^]. At that time (2005), the US Supreme Court was made up of 4 conservatives, 4 liberals, and one center-left justice. In this famous Eminent Domain case, the 4 liberal and the center-left justices voted against Ms Kelo. This allowed the city of New London to take her home and then pass it directly to Phizer Corp. All 4 conservative justices wrote scathing dissents in the case, while the left-leaning justices thought it just fine and dandy to favor one private entity (Phizer) over another (Ms Kelo).

Again, "conservative", "liberal", "left", ..., terms that have been so perverted in common usage as to be meaningless.

These terms have changed over time, for whatever reason and by whatever means, and have taken on new meanings. Current-day liberals, our President included, have to a large degree embraced Socialism. That's not conspiracy theory. All you need do is look at their track record. Regardless of how they identify themselves, they are what they are. My advice to you would be to quit worrying over how lefties and righties label themselves and concern yourself instead with the issues that matter to you.
