American Civil Liberties Union : H.R. 6304, THE FISA AMENDMENTS ACT OF 2008
American Civil Liberties Union : H.R. 6304, THE FISA AMENDMENTS ACT OF 2008
The ACLU recommends a no vote on H.R. 6304, which grants
sweeping wiretapping authority to the government with little
court oversight and ensures the dismissal of all pending cases
against the telecommunication companies. Most importantly:
• H.R. 6304 permits the government to conduct mass, untargeted
surveillance of all communications coming into and out of the
United States, without any individualized review, and without
any finding of wrongdoing.
call your senators, write, visit them at their
office. save the constitution, save the country,
now.

Post-traumatic stress vets live by Benning firing ranges | ajc.com
Post-traumatic stress vets live by Benning firing ranges | ajc.com: Across the street from
their assigned housing, about 200 yards
away, are some of the Army infantry's
main firing ranges, and day and night,
several days each week, barrages from
rifles and machine guns echo around
Strickland's building. The noise makes
the wounded cringe, startle in their
formations, and stay awake and on edge,
according to several soldiers interviewed
at the barracks last month. The gunfire
recently sent one soldier to the emergency
room with an anxiety attack, they said.
ain't that just the way to get these guys well?
sigh.

Who am i, what am i
A picture's worth
moon phases |
I stand on the sand, and I'm rocking
grief to sleep in my arms.
