* Our government is persecuting an air force veteran on the basis of religion, first denying him the right to visit his dying mother and know refusing to let him go home to his wife and child. We really have no civil liberties any more thanks to the Patriot Act and the other supposedly security related laws that followed it. This shit scares me. It also reminds me of the way Myanmar treated Aung San Su Kyi. He has done nothing illegal and yet we have stripped him of the right to see his family because he's black and a Muslim. I find this sort of thing a National Shame. I said this sort of thing and worse would happen when the Patriot Act passed, and it continues to further and further erode what freedoms we have left.
