Re: Will we have any Rights left?

Wow I did not know that. Very interesting D4.

For you Texans the bill is SB 12...this was tacked on.

Frank Cort - 512-463-0646 sponsored the bill and was co-sponored by Edwares 512-463-0518 and Craig Island - 512-463-0502.

Terry 512-463-1393 was the planning committee. So far can only leave a message with her.

I wonder how you start a petition to oppose this?

Re: Will we have any Rights left?

Everybody needs to contact their congressman on this. Unfortunately, many in the state won't really be affected by it and will stand by and do nothing. But what they may not realize is this applies to fires, floods, hurricanes or any reason the government decides to tell you to leave your home.

What if the government decides they want your home they tell you to leave and won't let you back? Then what?

You say that won't happen? Who thought the day would come that they would a man he has to leave for his own safety?

Are they going to give him the money for the gas and food to leave?

When will they let him back?

In case you can't tell I am very upset about this latest infringement on our rights.

I've lived in Texas most of my life and our family has never left for a storm.

We stayed during Alicia etc.

You just will not make a good Democrat. It seems you are unwilling to outsource your thinking. When you are ready to outsource your thinking, Then you can let guvment tell you what is best for you. They call us unpatriotic.

That's alright.

The conservatives called those who didn't like Bush's antics unpatriotic as well.

The thing is... until people break themselves free from the Dem/Repub Ferris Wheel then none of us are going to get anywhere.

There has to come a realization that no matter who gets in out of the 2 main parties we continue down the same spiral.

Yep...

Anyone who thinks there is still a "good team" out there is dilusional.

Re: Will we have any Rights left?

Will we or some future generation have to repeat history to reclaim this nation?

In Congress, July 4, 1776, THE UNANIMOUS DECLARATION OF THE THIRTEEN UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume, among the Powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. –Declaration of Independence

We appear to be at that juncture.
