The famous reality TV show 'Sister Wives' is using their show to not only educate America about their religious lifestyle, but to help fight to let it be legal once again. Polygamy was outlawed in the 1890s, but it is still practiced today by many Mormon families. The religious practice has to be carefully done in secret for the fear of being convicted. The author states that Mormons just want to freely practice their faith and be left alone about it without legal consequences.

I watched the first season of Sister Wives on Netflix, and, without voicing my personal opinions on the subject, I was really surprised that people are still practicing polygamy.

The abortionc law may not be the killer, but it contributes to the problem. Although most women have those rights to make decisions for them selves now, it is happening more than ever before. They are living with these deep secrets but talk about it as though it was a piece of cake. I know they must feel bad. The abortion law is not safe either.

On the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, threatening posts were made on the White House's facebook page. The posts were removed shortly after discovery and the Secret Service were to investigate the matter.

Since 1988 Arizona has had a helmet law, which affects every motorcyclist in the state. The result of not wearing a helmet in Arizona can be far more disastrous than a traffic ticket.

There have been pushes to ban encrypted services online in order to try and prevent terrorists from secretly using such services to communicate. This article discusses three major points that we need to consider when discussing this issue; terrorists aren't using things like PS4's to communicate, despite what the rumors claim.

Earlier this year, Edward J. Snowden, a government contractor, leaked classified documents to the news media that revealed the existence of top-secret government surveillance programs. We now know that the National Security Agency gathers phone logs and Internet data from millions of Americans as part of its mission to keep the United States safe.

As we all know, Planned Parenthood is at risk of losing funding due to an undercover act by a man named David Daleiden. As the on going investigation of Daleiden calmes that Planned Parenthood illegally selling fetal tissue, a Huston grand jury was cleared of any wrong doing, on the 23rd of November, 2015. What some or all may not know is that Planned Parenthood has filed a federal lawsuit stating that it was an act of "illegal secret recording and trespassing, mail fraud, and invasion of privacy". Although many may argue that Daleiden was only exercising our first Amendment right.

What Edward Snowden has done is to force a long repressed debate about how much liberty, if any, we need to sacrifice in order to protect our security. Before his leaks, that urgent conversation was a non-debate because the violations of liberty were being done entirely in secret, beyond the reach of democratic deliberation.

Buffett said he understands the position of Apple CEO Tim Cook, who does not want to open up the iPhones of everyday Americans to government scrutiny. "I don't know Tim [Cook] real well. Everything I know about his is he's a high-grade an individual as you can imagine," he said.

Apple shouldn't share their info. Once that backdoor is opened it can never be closed

I strongly believe whatever we sign or agree to with keeping our personal life a secret, there is always going to be something there violating our personal rights. We as humans are all different and come from different backgrounds but sine we are not the "law" or we do not know more than the FBI or Apple, they will continue to think it is okay to violate our privacy.
