There is a reason the power of government is limited

And there is a reason it must stay that way.

Read this story. Everywhere you see the word 'bag' substitute 'house'. Everywhere you see the words 'war on terror', substitute the words 'war on drugs'.

If you aren't doing anything wrong, you have nothing to worry about, right. Untill, of course, they take your right to political speech away. Then they can search your house for books they don't like.

The 'smaller government, personal responsiblity' Administration? Well, they support NYC's efforts to further erode your right to be secure in your person and papers.

You are not safer when they search my bag, you are less safe from them. And they are grabbing more and more power every chance they get.

One step at a time.
