President Bush is no longer in office and we have all these new anti-terorism laws, office of homeland security, and huge budgets for national law enforcement agencies.
Sure right now most of the power, money, and authority is being used to try to track down terrorists. But can you imagine what would happen if Bill Clinton and Janet Reno would have had all theses "tools" at their disposal? What if Gore or Hillary wins in 2004 or 2008. What's going to happen when a liberal anti gets elected again? At some time it will happen.
What's even scarier is some states classifying "terrorists" as people who participate in paramilitary training or hold views against the government or UN. Sounds to me that with the wrong person in office, if someone were to speak out against the government trying to register everyone firearms, that person would be labeled a paramilitary type terrorist. Anyone else concerned about this?
