As Ben Franklin stated, Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. Sadly, the statists in Washington, D.C. keep choosing to take away more and more of our liberties for some bureaucrats vision of so-called safety. In todays world, security really means handing over the last bits of freedom to Big Governments prying eyes. Not long ago, the Senate Armed Services Committee called for drones returning from Afghanistan to be used freely and routinely in U.S. airspace. Government agencies are training drones by tracking civilian cars over American cities. Law enforcement agencies are buying them up by the dozen – happy to let the spying begin. The Congressional Research Service states domestic drones could be equipped with facial recognition or soft biometric recognition, which can recognize and track individuals based on attributes such as height, age, gender, and skin color. If you and I don’t stand up to this nonsense, more than 30,000 are expected to be flying across the United States in the near future. So please sign our Citizens Stand for Individual Liberty petition to let Congress know you oppose their theft of your rights. This isnt something out of George Orwells 1984. Its America in 2013. And its all designed so politicians can line the pockets of their crony capitalist pals – while you and I pay the price with our tax dollars and our freedom. Im not telling you all this to dishearten you – although I understand it may be discouraging to look the facts straight in the face. Im telling you this because these are the battles you and I cant ignore if we are going to maintain our last vestiges of freedom as Americans – and regain what weve lost. After all, in recent years, weve witnessed the passage of the so-called Patriot Act, which allows the government to wiretap and spy on American citizens. Weve seen the passage of the NDAA - allowing the government to lock up and detain American citizens indefinitely without so much as a warrant. The recent NSA scandal finally exposed that our federal government routinely collects BILLIONS of emails and phone calls from American citizens every day. This was AFTER National Intelligence Director James Clapper LIED before Congress, saying they were doing nothing of the sort. Today, the most technologically advanced police state in world history is being built right before our eyes. Outrageous, full-frontal assaults on our constitutional rights that were unthinkable just a few years ago are now commonplace, including: *** Unmanned government spy drones flying over American cities; *** The claimed authority of our federal government to indefinitely detain and even assassinate American citizens without trial; *** Government agencies tracking the location and movement of virtually every car in America through a vast network of automated scanners. Now you and I are seeing even MORE massive new assaults. The Internet remains a top target of government control through schemes such as SOPA, CISPA, and the National Internet Tax Mandate. And I havent even mentioned the horrific National ID database included within the so-called Immigration Reform bill thats before the U.S. House for consideration as I write this. This national database could ultimately include all kinds of information about American citizens -- like gun ownership records, health records, purchasing habits, and religious beliefs. Our liberties are being stolen from us daily – and for NOTHING. That’s why it’s important you sign our Citizens Stand for Individual Liberty petition. So whats next? What else will the security statists demand of us in order to finally make us safe and secure in their eyes? Black boxes in every car? Cameras on every street corner? In every house? So government bureaucrats can ensure we dont smoke the wrong thing? To ensure our sodas arent too big or our cheeseburgers too greasy? How much liberty will politicians steal before the American people wake up and say ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!? I believe you and I are at a tipping point. More and more Americans ARE getting fed up. And Campaign for Liberty is fighting back. But more attacks on our Fourth Amendment rights are coming at the American people full-speed ahead. So its up to you and me to turn up the pressure higher than ever before. You and I must be prepared to take on the statists and defend our freedoms. Thats exactly what Campaign for Liberty has been doing - and will continue to do - in the coming weeks and months. Our goal is to reawaken men and women from coast to coast and rally them to defend liberty before its too late. Because its not too late. Not yet. The free soul of America still exists. But its up to you and me to create a grassroots fire that no politician in his or her right mind would dare ignore. In Liberty, John Tate President
