End the War on Freedom

More and more of late I have been hearing about the (National I.D., Real I.D. or more secure driver's licenses). And I must admit I am a bit amazed at the lack of voice in the online forum which is the internet. Unlike the opposition to the amnesty act of 2007 this legislation is moving forward. With the only real opposition shouting that this would be too costly for the states. And indeed it shall be costly but not in the measurement of dollars.

For millions of Statesmen the right to travel is a necessity. Transporting foods and goods between states, interacting amongst peers, family and friends. The list goes on and on. For all in the name of terrorism a shift is about to occur for many. In states that are opposing the federal legislation it's citizens will not be allowed to travel outside of that state and it's borders.

Never mind the fact that the only reason that the 9/11 terrorist got driver's licenses was because of the failure of the federal government and it's poor passport measures & requirements.

"The states who have passed legislation or resolutions objecting to the Real ID Act many due to concerns over the cost - are Arkansas, Colorado, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Maine, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee and Washington, according to the ACLU." billingsgazette.net

My hopes are that enough people discover this blog and want to participate. Together we stand; we can help to try and defeat this treachory. We can help jump start a campaign of phone calls, emails, faxes and protest. To every radio, television, blog, etc. To each and every state to the District of Columbia. We can let our voices be heard.

In the meantime stay tuned to this blog to keep up with current legislation & contact information.
