Ugh.

I won't say too much, since we're not really a free country anymore. I'll illustrate my point by relaying the story of two kids in a high school in my town, who, during class (history I think?) were vocal about being against the war and GW policy. The teacher reported them, and the next day they were interrogated for hours by the FBI. I'm serious. Two students in a poverty-ridden predominately black public high school interrogated by the FBI as a serious threat to the President/National Security/whatever. Gee, with all this security and the 40 billion dollar a month wars going on, I really can't imagine why 80% of states are bankrupt.

Did you know they're trying to pass a law right now that will revoke citizenship if you are unAmerican???? WTF? Who decides who's American enough to stay? What are the criteria? And what do you do if your citizenship's revoked - float to Haiti on a boat and pray for clemency as a political refugee?
