Just in time for 4th of July, here’s a new video from Jeff Childress - Blood Bought Liberty. It is a tribute to our troops. Whether or not you support the war, you should be supporting our troops. Some may even not agree with what they have to do, but they are selflessly putting their lives on the line for your safety and freedom.. Please watch the video below, and also rate it and favorite it on Youtube.

Please Digg and Stumble it as well. Help spread this video around the world so as we celebrate our nation’s independence this week, let’s not forget those that fight for it every day.

Check the website of Jeff Childress, or get the song.

I’ve got an idea. We should all give away all of our freedoms so our mighty government can protect us instead. I mean, the government knows what’s right and what is safe, right? So why should we have any freedoms when they can do everything for us?

They just introduced a new scanner at many major airports. This scanner sees through clothing. This scanner shows everything underneath your clothes to the real person that is watching the scanner. While currently the scan is optional and you can trade out for a pat-down, many people that are made to go through this scanner aren’t even aware what the scanner is doing! This is a violation or privacy and your rights!

What makes me so sick is one lady who made a comment on the scanner. Eileen Reardon of Baltimore said:

Some of this stuff seems a little crazy, but in this day and age, you have to go along with it.

No! You don’t have to go along with it! The only reason that the government keeps pushing the limits like this is because of people like you who are so willing to give up their rights for a little “security.” Because we definitely need this scanner with all of the planes that keep dropping out of the sky from plastic weapons that are smuggled through.

Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both.

Do you know who said that? Benjamin Franklin! We have a constitution for a reason! You should not stand for the constant dismantling of our freedoms and rights because the government says there is scary stuff out there!

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
