I’m moving to Canada
[from Vivien Limon of Upland, CA.]
I did not sign up for this. when I was born we, as a country, were involved in the 1960’s. Change and peace and equality were all big things. But I know I was born in the United States of America. We are a nation that is unusual in that we have always followed the Constitution. A document written by some people who were brilliant. They wrote something that stood for equality and freedom. Our country, though it went through tribulations, still stayed strong and grew. We were a free people. Other countries copied our Constitution. Countries such as France and Japan. But now, it seems Abraham Lincoln’s words are ringing true. Our greatest enemy will be from within. It is. His name is George W. Bush. Not only has he established the Patriot Act which is and has some unconstitutional aspects…you shouldn’t be able to arrest just anyone off the street. He has engaged in wire-tapping of innocent individuals without any court orders. He has bypassed our courts in order to destroy the natural
environment without even a chance for the public to hear the reasoning. He has made this country a dictatorship. I didn’t sign up for a dictatorship, I signed up for freedom.
