You Call This Freedom?

I got the following information from the ACLU via email. I found this very interesting because they said the exact same thing on Democracy NOW! this morning. Privacy is gone and America is finished. We hear all this talk from both presidential candidates about rights and freedom, but why is it that so much of those rights and freedoms is being taken away? The people who make policy and run this country have gone insane and the worse is still yet to come.
Traveling shouldn’t mean checking your rights when you’re checking your luggage.
Did you know...
Border security can seize your laptop, cell phone or camera with no suspicion or explanation.
Many airports use scanners that conduct a virtual "strip search" of passengers.There are over one million names on the terrorist watch list.
The TSA recently expressed interest in having every airline passenger wear "electro-muscular disruption" bracelets that could be used to shock passengers into submission.
