Government intrusion into private matters |
Think it could never happen here? Think again.
Today ordinary Americans are subjected
to illegal surveillance, including wiretapping of phone calls
and emails; prisoners are illegally detained in Guantánamo
Bay; and recently it has been reported that the National Security
Agency is secretly gathering the phone call records of tens of
millions of Americans, without a court order.
We have also witnessed an increased
hostility towards personal and private matters, with attacks on
the rights of same-sex couples; assaults on the ability of women
to make independent decisions about their reproductive health;
and efforts to erode the Constitution's guarantee of religious
liberty for everyone.
It's time to stand up
against the government's flagrant abuses of power.
