Indystar.com asked these questions.
The answers are my own replies.
If you care to give yours, I'll
listen.
You can reply to any or all of these questions.
1. Would you support restrictions on
our civil liberties to combat terrorism in this country?
NO! Don't let the terrorist win!
(I don't feel we should give up the
freedoms that make this country what it is.
To give up our freedom and our way
of life is giving terrorist what they want.
I do agree that we need stronger security,
but there has to be a better way
to achieve that goal without destoying
our way of life.)
1b. And
how far would you be willing to go?
2. Would you support intrusive searches
at airports -- for example,
everyone having their bags and personal
belongings searched by hand?
No. Although, I would support allowing
fewer carry ons.
3. Would you support a law requiring
everyone to carry a national
identification card?
No, I carry a state ID. Why do I need
a national one?
4. Would you support new laws to allow
monitoring of telephone calls and
e-mail?
No, No, No!!! I would not support my
privacy being invaded.

law enforcement to monitor credit
card purchases?
No,
No, No!!!
What I put on my charge card is on
no ones business but mine.
6. Would you support internment camps
for foreigners from hostile nations?
No
Do we really want to do this again?
(We can't look down at any group of
people because of race or religion.
Every citizen in this country has a right to our basic freedoms, to justice
and to equality.
How can we take away from others the
same rights that we want for ourselves?
7. Should federal law enforcement be
allowed to arrest and deport suspected
terrorists without a court hearing?
No!
