Methamphetamine Bill Resurfaces on Capitol Hill posted by cicero on Saturday September 23, @04:43AM from the accelerating-speed-bill dept.
Everyone thought the Methamphetamine Anti-Proliferation Act had died this summer, but a source close to the issue tells us the Senate has resurrected this nasty bit of legislation. Among other things, the bill would ban links to drug-related websites. It didn't quite get enough momentum on its own, so some of our more censorhappy congresscritters attached it to the entirely unrelated Bankruptcy Reform Act, part of which could allow police to conduct secret searches of your home. That bill is currently before a conference committee, which has only about a week left to finish it before Congress adjourns for the year. You may want to contact your legislators before it's too late.
Contact our legislators before it's too late? What, and deprive us of targets of opportunity? As far as I'm concerned, and I think the Law supports me in this, if I happen to find someone skulking around in my house I can blow them away at will. Besides, if the police and narcs take to sneaking into folks' homes at night, without a warrant, then obviously their hives deserve to be mcveighed. Even if they've installed some rugrats as human shields. Eggs breaking and all that. Nothing surprises me anymore. They all need killing. Tens of thousands of them at the very least. --Tim May -- ---------:---------:---------:---------:---------:---------:---------:---- Timothy C.
