Radio chip coming soon to your driver's license? Homeland Security.

This is all part of the plan for socialism by the Democrats.
 
LOL - where are the throngs of people who opposed Bush for the Patriot Act? This is more of an intrusion than everything in the PA combined. I suppose we'll hear silence from those same folks because moral ineptitude was never their strong suit. The theory that "it's only OK if my side does it" is getting really ****ing old. Hypocrisy knows no bounds and it's quite pathetic IMHO, no matter what side it's coming from.
 
This is peanuts. Wait 'til you see NHC. The government will have all your medical information on electronic media and be able to data mine at their leisure.

Gonna suck to be a US citizen and be concerned about your privacy. :2wave:

Who created Homeland Security again? Oh yeah REPUBLICANS.

You reap what you sow.

Are you still stuck in the Matrix? Do the fake lines drawn and pretend political championship matches still fool you?
 
That's pretty spooky. Hopefully there will be enough opposition to kill this.

So then, you don't have any problem with Homeland Security. Is that a new development now that Obamessiah is in the White House?

I wonder what possible good reason somebody could come up with for this. A radio chip? For what purpose. I looked on the Washington state website and it said it was cheaper and easier to use than a passport. I'd like to know how the radio chip itself makes that possible?
 
Lol.

This reminds of the people who defend such surveillance with "If you're not a criminal, then you have nothing to worry about".

No, just no.

It is just another step in technology like record keeping of tax records with pen and ink.
 
I saw this coming the second big brother made it mandatory to clear up all the old towers and convert all T.V. to digital signals. Welcome to your new RFID towers. This was pretty obvious.

Good observation. It was these same people who defended the wire tapping policy.

You let them take one freedom, they begin taking others. This is why you can't give ground on any. People will never learn... and I predict that the radio chip will pass into law without much resistance.

It will take the government wanting to chip your body before people make a stink, and by then it will be too late.

Dish or DirectTV should run ads..

"Free yourself from Big Brothers grasp when you sign up for satellite TV service, and get 3 months free HBO."
 
Just another reason to leave my wallet at home.

:2wave:
 
IMO, this is a great idea.
In the interest of security, we need a good national ID system.
For me - privacy be damned, I do not care as I am a law abiding citizen..
Others, they can run scared..

UN expert: data mining a threat to human rights - International Herald Tribune
Unfettered collection of personal data by intelligence agencies is a threat to basic human rights, a U.N. expert has warned.

In an advance copy of a report to the U.N. Human Rights Council, Martin Scheinin said so-called 'data mining' blurs the boundary between the targeted observation of suspects and mass surveillance.

The temptation to collect excess information because it may be useful, rather than for a specific purpose, could undermine a person's right to privacy and nondiscrimination, he said.

"The technical capabilities of this technique can tempt the user towards broadening the definition of what is considered suspicious," according to the report published on a U.N. Web site Friday.
 
The mark of the BEAST shall be next!:shocked2:

Wow assume much? Where in what I posted did it translate to I have NO problem with Homeland Security? Way to put words in peoples mouths there, but as usually, you are WRONG.

I have a big problem with Homeland Security, it shouldn't exist. But the problems that are occurring now were well forseen and since most conservatives and Republicans touted HLS, you guys shouldn't be complaining. This is what you get.

Some of you might be amazed on how fast data about someone is made available. Think for a minute when a really big story bursts how fast the networks are telling the viewers about a person, suspect or victim.
For those of you that blame our declining right to privacy on one political party you are showing your ignorance. If one party is to blame where is the outrage by the opposing party? The answer to that question is "nowhere to be found". What a technology permits we will then yield to that technologyin the nmae of a "better" America.

I don't know. I feel that as a law abiding citizen, my privacy should be protected, not exploited.
 
I am certainly opposed to this. What reason are they touting for needing this sort of radical Driver's License upgrade? To find criminals who carry ID on them? :lol:
