Author D B Kopel argues that gun control in countries like Great Britain, Australia, Switzerland, Japan, New Zealand, Canada, and Jamaica is not the reason for their low crime rate. In fact he states that their gun control law is the cause for more burglaries and that gun registration has been proven in these countries to be valueless in solving or preventing crimes.

Both liberal and conservative groups alike have criticized the U.S. Patriot Act, passed in the wake of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, because they say it violates probable cause and due process rights protected by the Constitution of the United States. The Patriot Act significantly expanded the power of U.S.

Is it cutting-edge, or just downright creepy? Surveillance technology is increasingly being implemented in municipalities across the country. But while such gadgets aim to curtail crime and decrease traffic accidents, some people are wondering about the costs to both town budgets and privacy.

This article is interesting because it is about how China has taken away legal rights from it's citizens. The topic was brought up when a lady, Tang Hui, who was tossed into a "reeducating by labor" camp for advocating for her daughter, that was raped and sold into a prostitution ring. Tang Hui was just standing up for her daughter's rights by raising her voice when the accused were not given a just sentence for their crimes.

The problem with legislature like this is the government will have permission to detain anyone without actual proof. Your cousin Steve could be locked up and there's nothing you can do about it. Not everyone accused of a crime is guilty, and under the NDAA, it won't matter. Guilty or innocent, you can be detained. Not only is this a violation of your Constitutional rights, it's one step close to Fascism.

I agree with Erika. It's a slippery slope. The government can define a terrorist as an extreme Muslin organization today and the Tea Party tomorrow.
