'Red State' Montana Says NO! to the Patriot Act

'Red State' Montana Says NO! to the Patriot Act:

Hurrah for Montana. I want to see Oxfordshire pass a mandate to stop the UK Government infringing our rights in the name of anti terrorism.

What we need is open honest truthful Goivernment, not state snooping into our private lives.

But that is what we face under the Governments plans to draw up detailed profiles of all our children in some monster database.

In the news last week it was shown to be impossible to correct or remove false information from our NHS data base.

We really need to fight to fend off a police state here, not just in America.


"The resolution, which does not carry the weight of a law but expresses the Legislature's opinion, encourages Montana law enforcement agencies not to participate in investigations authorized under the Patriot Act that violate Montanans' constitutional rights. It requests all libraries in the state to post a sign warning citizens that under the Patriot Act, federal agents may force librarians to turn over a record of books a person has checked out and never inform that citizen of the request.
The resolution asks Montana's attorney general to review any state intelligence information and destroy it if is not tied directly to suspected criminals. It also asks the attorney general to find out how many Montanans have been arrested under the Patriot Act and how many people have been subject to so-called 'sneak and peaks,' or government searches of a person's property without the person's knowledge.
