brightNow Playing: ACLU and The Patriot Act ~ Libriarians Gag Order Lifted
Topic: CIVIL RIGHTS
So Zebra 3 Readers, when was it that you threw down your civil rights and didn't care anymore? Do you recall being asked to forgo our civil rights?
Well when the Librarians were told to SHUT UP
And when they were "GAGGED" so to speak, about this type of civil rights violations,
They stood up along with the ACLU and fought then as well as "now" for all our rights.
These Patriots "rock" They are My Hero's
Read this surmounting and aspiring link of dedication for civil justice and the freedom to speak and read what we want, in spite of the
NEW NEOCON LAWS that are replacing what we hold true and proud "Our Old Constitution"
**********************************************
"FREE SPEECH"
LIBRARIANS FIGHT FOR ALL OUR RIGHTS IN ONE WEEK:
I am excited to tell you that the ACLU won the right to address "in public" some concerns of the Patriot Act's National Security Letter Provision which next week will be getting challenged in the open public!
The controversial "NSL" provision authorizes the FBI to demand a range of personal records without prior court approval, including records of Web site visits, e-mail addresses, and certain library records. The statute also "gags" anyone served with such a letter from revealing that the FBI sought or obtained information from them.
Well due to this challenge ....The appeals court effectively lifted the gag that prevented Connecticut librarians who received a NSL from disclosing their identities. The gagged librarians will speak publicly about the case for the first time next week. Civil Right are on the March! (MAY 30 2006)
