REAL ID is a Real Joke by the Southern Avenger

[brianjamesliamgeary]

The stupidity of having to have this card is mind boggling. American citizens will have to have these cards but we will still have millions of illegals in this country who are undocumented. If terrorists want to come in, they can come in from Mexico. Our government isn't doint anything about guarding the borders. Face it, this card has NOTHING to do with preventing terrorism and we ALL HAVE to fight it.

Nicely put, however I will say that, for me personally, cell phones are a necessary evil. I hate them, but I live in a dorm room with no land line phone so my only contact with home is through the privacy destroying, cacer causing cellular telephone

Sadly most Americans are already carrying RFID with them and don't even know it.For example most products sold by corporations in America like Proctor and Gamble or Gillette have RFID inside the packaging.Tear open the back of a pack of razors.They claim it is to be more effecient in stocking and by knowing how far the customers have to travel some how helps them serve you better.

[flubno]

The Real ID is also suppose to have a RF tracking chip inside it. Doesn't that sound nice, so the Federal Gov can track you by salilite . Fuck the Real ID !

[oldhacks]

if we had a national referendum process in this country then we could just vote as Americans to repeal all the crap laws the feds try to impose on us.

[ArcticSlicer]

Say yes to the National Initiative for Democracy(NI4D). Google it.

We as people need to take back our government and start making it work for our interests again.

[americasace]

thank you southernavenger for continously making it obvious to all that America is indeed on a path toward "police state" status. Our rights are being trampled and those in power actually seem to prefer it that way. Scary

[Knife226]

can we start saying "to arms"? we need some kind of line in the sand.

[jpcl21]

@Knife226 Censorship. After that, the government and those in support of it are no longer open to reason.

[HungryDingo]

This Real ID is an abomination, at the very least few people support this, this is a cause people can be rallied around. Only the small remaining neo-conservative Bushbots support this.

The system itself is the problem; "reforming" it is no more a solution than trying to "reform" the mafia. If you wish to be free, learn about and implement counter-economics (see agorism dot info). It's working for the people of Zimbabwe, it can certainly work here.

We need to act. We can all hope and want RP to be president, but if we dont take positive productive actions in our respective communities, RP as president would not be enough. If u r a Citizen, u can run for office in your local government. Be the leader in your community that speaks the truth and has high moral standards. We have to eliminate all the hypocrites running our government, churches and households. U can be the role model.

Hope you can help in your community.

[Downfacingdog]

Sweet!

[werebear1]

US citizens are nothing more than cattle. Real ID will be the ultimate tag. Eventually every single transaction will require it. Every single movement you make will be tracked.

[MentalReserve]

only if you all let them tag you only if you americans continue to let your government do whatever and whenever it wants when the english tried to controll america your forefathers sent them to the depths of hell.. your current government knows this hints the GUN CONTROLL GUN BANS and Militarized police

[nearfall76]

I noticed the freemason pyramid and all seeing eye on the real id. Why is it on there?

[shiftstart]

If they are using the all seeing eye for the ID card its very appropriate for the nanny state.

[USSLIBERTY1]

Caling the US a "Nanny State" is one hell of a sugar coating don't you think? Penal Colony would be more appropriate.

[shiftstart]

Nanny state, penal colony? Its all going into the same crapper anyways.

[flubno]

When the Goverment(controlled by societys eliets) is controlling your life and is watching or tracking you. It's been the same sence the very first civilazations, thousands of years ago. It worked in ancient Eygpt and if people are sheepish enough and don't stand up for themselfs, it will work today too.

[Desnoxvu]

Does this US govt think we will sacrifice our liberties to them without a bloody fight?

[shiftstart]

Yes. And if you resist you will be called a terrorist! It was a brilliant catch 22. Once the federal powers are expanded there is no going back! And there is not a damn thing anyone can do it about.

[flubno]

Well, unfortunatly they probly do ! Get some illegal , unregistered guns and alot of ammo.

[midwestcharm]

Lindsay Graham is doing alot of damage to this country.

[philippe1985]

America could be a great country. But it isn't because Americans want their country to be like any other countries on earth. corrupt and stinky.

[KarateKidX]

hey, sensenbrenner jr, he's the rep of my district before i went to college.

[eekdog2005]

Do Not Comply America! Fight this tooth & nail! Fight all the scum in our govt.

[iTellYouNoLie]

Ron Paul or die!!!!!!!!!

[dtaijo174]

Luv ya SA. We need to get you some more subscribers...

[IKSDoomie]

I am going to use my Real ID to open my door when I forget my keys. I am going to use my Real ID as a spatula when I am making eggs. I will use my Real ID as a ice scraper. See all the great uses for the Real ID. How can you say it is bad when there are so many valid uses for it once you put it in the microwave and fry the chip :)

[flubno]

I was thinkin of ways to get around the tracking chip. What blocks radio frequencys ? Microwaving the Real ID is a cool Idea .

[karlam325]

Counting down the days til Bush/Cheney are GONE....

THE WORST PRESIDENT I CAN REMEMBER...

You know what you can do with your I.D. card?

Exactly what you've done with our constitution!

[crm61181]

why dont we all get numbers tatted on our wrist.

[oyate1960]

All right! I think it's time for SA to consider running as a Ron Paul republican for public office.

Now if you will excuse me, McCain's opening statement for the Patreus hearing is making me puke.

[tuffyjon]

national id card, I hope they got green ones.

[angelsoulnme]

I wrote to E. Dole who is a NC representative about my opposition to FISA. She sent me back a form letter giving me all the reasons why she had to vote YES on it.

[jclayton59466]

You can issue my National ID card once you have me safely housed at Gitmo...

[TIAAVENDEALANTIN]

Woah...déjà vu.

[jclayton59466]

Im sorry to steal your speach man, I don't want the fame for your words. But when I see something that should be repeated, I repeat it in hopes more people would see the wizdome expressed. Next time I'll site my source.

[TIAAVENDEALANTIN]

It's alright dude...I was just trying to be funny. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery as they say. I'll see ya at Gitmo dude :)

[fedupwhiteman]

Hey.

[ParadeRainer]

This one is especially good because I am so opposed to the REAL ID. I applaud SC for standing against the REAL ID, and am so embarrassed that my home state of NC has bent over backwards for it. But the fight against it here is far from over! Help us get a pro-liberty, anti-REAL ID Congressman elected to Congress by supporting B.J. Lawson. lawsonforcongress(dot)com

[angelsoulnme]

Not only that but the NC license even has the new NAU logo on it.

[slavophile1]

Bush is more to the left than Jimmy Carter.

[TIAAVENDEALANTIN]

Always good, Always right...Good job as usual SA. Keep up the great work

[TIAAVENDEALANTIN]

You can issue my National ID card once you have me safely housed at Gitmo...but not before. I might add that if I'm forced off the roads and out of my vehicle for lack of an ID card, I'm going to have LOTS of spare time for civil disobedience...Hope the DOT has a good budget in place :)

[angelsoulnme]

YES SA - I loved you said that the BORDERS should have been BORDERED UP! That would have been a start. So instead our borders are still wide open, but they want us to take a National ID card. PLEASE!

[malletj1]
