Rod Blum on Homeland Security |
I oppose portions of the Patriot Act which, day after day, erode our civil liberty. Instead of researching what went wrong on 9/11, with the terror of those events fresh in our mind, Congress and the President feverishly signed this into law without even reading it. The Patriot Act allows roving wiretaps to our conversations no matter how minor and essentially repeals the 4th Amendment.
I oppose portions of the National Defense Authorization Act such as Section 1021, Indefinite Detention of anyone thus removing Habeas Corpus.
I oppose government interference in the Internet.
