PROTECT YOUR FREEDOM
I've been deeply concerned these past few years with the loss of our
freedoms - it happens so subtly, we don't miss it until its too late.
Case in point is the power given to the Drug Enforcement Agency. I'm all
for strong drug laws, but to give this agency unbridled power to be judge
and jury, that's one step from a dictatorship. They are a power unto
themselves. What is really frightening to me is, they don't have to prove
any wrongdoing.
I just finished reading a wonderful book on this topic, "A License to
Steal" by Leonard W. Levy. It names names, places, etc. It shows how out of
control this agency and other police agencies really are.
Who gave these agencies this power? Why hasn't Congress provided safeguards
to protect innocent citizens? Could you be the next victim?
Please do a little research. Knowledge is power. Protect your freedom.
