Is anyone suppressed by this? We have an overzealous government, which, in trying to protect its citizens, ends up hurting them even more.

#6 - Fri Oct 6, 2006 11:27 PM EDT"This just in, mass ammounts of people are disappearing from the streets of major cities through the United States. There have been no sign of the missing people in hospitals or by law enforcement officials. Some speculate this may be connected to the recently passed legislation regarding the removal of the right of Habeas Corpus for suspected terrorist threats and others, however the White House has yet to comment. The current estimates range from 30,000-35,000 missing."
Next week's news maybe?
