disruptors
Submitted by PAAMember on January 17, 2006 - 12:03pm. :: Discussion
I'd think most of us qualify as "disruptors" according to the Patriot Act definition...by this time I'm faily certain I've made a list somewhere...now the question is, are they 'together' enuff to manage such list?
Anyway, your suggestion is righteous Bill. I wonder if maybe Jim Harrington of the Texas Civil Rights Project might be interested in something like you've suggested...I signed on to this suit last year http://www.kwtx.com/home/headlines/1997722.html
It's a possibility...or maybe just a thought....any others?
Peace,
Sherry

Sounds as if anyone having an opinion not approved by Faux News but
being anywhere near King W is defined as a disruptor. Read on for my
proposal.
I should qualify as a
disruptor even more than the definitions below,
because I even encourage people to do something even more disruptive
to this administration than wearing a T-shirt -- I encourage them to
vote.
I suggest that we start a movement, asking everyone to turn
themselves in, if they've worn a political t-shirt, if they had a
bumper sticker on their car, or if they made any public statement or
sent an e-mail critical of the Bush/Cheney regime's policies. Of
course, such a movement would probably be defined as "disruptive",
too. Bring it on.
I'd be proud to turn myself in, and am eager to do it now. Where and
how do I do it?
Of course, I'm probably already on their list anyway.
I made a decision during the Vietnam war that I was going to speak up
against it whenever I could, and I assumed I got entered into some
FBI file somewhere (although I never checked). I was a draft
counselor and involved
with student groups opposing that war, among
other things. None of this stopped me from getting a security
clearance at a place I was working while I was a student, nor another
clearance when working for a NASA contractor later. (No, I never
dealt with any classified info and never worked on any
weapons-related systems.) But even if it had kept me from getting a
clearance or working where I did, I would have been proud to be on
Nixon's enemies list. The same goes for this administration,
probably even more so.
This would be a terrific subject for a 1st amendment lawsuit. Does
anyone know if the people who have been thrown out of, or prevented
from entering, tax-payer funded public appearances of Bush because of
bumper stickers or T-shirts ever filed a lawsuit?
Those of you who want to join me in being a disruptor -- please let
me know if you can help us pass out impeachment info flyers and/or
sell impeach bumper stickers before the MLK parade starts Monday
morning. Put "MLK parade" somewhere in your e-mail to me if you can
help.
