WE know it doesn't work, but they don't know that. The hype war is being waged by the antis, and we must strike down even things they propose that would hypothetically create a privacy issue. So much of their method is keep throwing absurdities at us and we let them pass and eventually an absurdity will slip by that has some real teeth to it somewhere in it's wording. In politics, as long as you stay within reasonable ethics and legality, there is no such thing as limited warfare. It takes fighting public misperception and the FUD factor as much as possible to win this matter. If we have to counter-play the public, in order to just get them to listen so that we can begin to turn them with real arguments, we stand a chance. The antis have only the means to create hype. We can create hype and then back our position with facts. We ultimately have a much stronger footing than they do, we simply are not fully leveraging that fact.

The Bill of Rights is a document of brilliance, a document of wisdom, and it is the ultimate law, spoken or not, for the very concept of a society that holds liberty above the desire for ever greater power. -Me
