Bend over.

Mission creep at its finest. I'm sure this hearing will come and go with little attention paid. But at least we are safer.

With the first link the chain is forged. The first speech censored, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably.

I'm amazed this thread isn't about New Mexico cops.

Nah. I've quit piling on them. They just wanted to go home after their shift with a funny "hey honey, guess what happened tonight" story.

Yeah - and a few years back when the med weed initiative was up for vote in MT, the feds were all out in force campaigning against it  :mad:
Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward toward the light; but the laden traveller may never reach the end of it.  - Ursula Le Guin

It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.
