Give me an example of the US government preventing the free speech of it's own citizens at any time since 9/11. BTW, do you not realize that the very freedom you call a myth allowed you to type that without fear of government reprisal?
I am a vocal opponent to the Patriot Act, I haven't been filed away into some corner. Neither has the ACLU or any of the people in the above links.
I also welcome your input to this forum and it's debates, but you will be challenged on your points and expected to back them up with fact.

Examples of disallowing free speech?? How about the severe reluctance to allow anti-war demonstrations and the MASSIVE police presence at the ones that were allowed....makes the ones from the 60's look like a Free-for-all...
I'm not convinced that some government flunky is NOT surfing this very board as I type , looking for more serious threats than I.....
And no ...you haven't been filed away ...yet , and neither have the others... But the more dangerous , respected people have been marked...trust me...
And yes...conspiracy theories make good stories , lets hope all we have to do is READ about them......:alien2: :bandit:
