Say "No" to the REAL ID (National ID Card)

Grimley Jones
Some of you may have heard about the REAL ID act, which will require all US citizens to have a National ID card, equipped with a RFID chip, which will enable those with access to the system to track a person's every move. Not only is the REAL ID invasive, but it makes identity theft much easier for tech savvy hackers. For a comprehensive breakdown and up to date news on the REAL ID goto http://epic.org/privacy/id-cards/ EPIC is the Electronic Privacy Information Center and they work to ensure Americans have the privacy and freedom that they deserve.

While the government wants to implement the REAL ID by May 2008, they have allowed extensions to states that can't adjust in time. Nevertheless, the goal is for every American to have a REAL ID by 2012. If you value your privacy and freedom, resist the REAL ID at all costs. The government has been using the threat of terrorism to restrict the liberties of American citizens and the REAL ID is the perfect example of the mind games the government plays to keep American citizens in check.

    When Social Security started in 1937, people were concerned that the number would be a national ID, and citizens were promised this would never happen, that it was only for our retirement account.
    Later of course that number had to be included to show how much we had paid into SS for Income taxes, notice though that we still paid income taxes on our entire income, promissing that when we retired our SS would not be taxable. Now SS is taxable above a certain amount of income. But later on we were informed our children at birth now had to have a SS number for Income tax returns, or to enter school, and more and more our SS number is our national ID number. When we are denied a drivers license unless we submit to the new ID features, most will submit, not knowing what is really going on.
    Then we will find that unless we have the new ID no bank accounts.
    Now in California all pets have to have the underskin chip, and all comply, when we are told no child may go to school unless they

    Sounds like government trying to take place of god... churches not happy cause they'll lose a reason to exist in a world where people cannot do any wrong. Forget government and god. Just smoke lots of weed.

    Interesting piece, I hope this act doesn't become law. I need to learn more about it though.

    If we don't stop Electing Republicans or Democrats this act will be implimented. Our nation will become part of the North American Union, then handed over to the United Nations New World Order. Our citizens will be disarmed under Public Law 87-297, then we will be detained in Detention Centers established under "REX 84" to that we can weed out the strong in our nation, so that only the weak exist. Our jobs leaving our nation, Globalization, and voters are just not paying any attention. Determined to elect Republicans or Democrats, and those offered for our vote this 2008 will give all the illegal aliens Amnesty. They will not close our borders, they will confiscate our guns, they will continue with this National ID act, all innocent to hear them tell you, but this goes deeper in to treason to end our sovereignty. We must not allow this to happen.
    With National ID it would be easy to scan you as you enter any business, to scan you as you pay for purchases, to keep a total database on

    I would rather obay what the Lord then I would man so I am not takeing eather of them. G-d will provide if I abide in him and keep his commandments given down to man. And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark,
    or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
    Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. (666). This is why I will not take nothing such as a National ID card or a chip. Jesus Christ is my Lord and my Savior and He died for me so I can live for ever with Him. I want to obay Him because this is what the bible says For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for My sake shall find it.. I have been a born again beliver in Christ sence June 2001. I am 7 years old in Jesus Christ and I will be 8 years old in Christ this year. I am still a baby Christain. But I am learning as I go.

    I can see both the pros and the cons but am still skeptic on the idea of them being able to track me down. On the other hand, it would be a lot easier to track serial killers, kidnapped victims, rapist, and people who piss other people off( for the hackers use).

    Wow! What's next? How much more control does our Government intend to have over our private lives? Great reporting!

  • Joe Dimeck1/27/2008

    The REAL ID is the first step towards the microchip under the skin. It is a way to keep citizens obedient because if they don't cooperate all they have to do is turn off the chip and the person won't be able to drive a car, open a bank account, spend money, etc. etc.etc.
