"With all the attention that's been paid lately to long federal sentences for drug offenders, it's surprising that a far more troubling phenomenon has barely hit the media's radar screen. Every year, thousands of upstanding, responsible Americans run afoul of some incomprehensible federal law or regulation and end up serving time in federal prison."
It isn't just the firearms enthusiast that has the spotlight! You better have an attourney just to have a thought or idea if it gets too much more generalized in the way laws can be interpreted! I am surprised none of the people at townhall meetings haven't been thrust into the Homeland Security Federal spotlight for speaking their mind and being enthusiastic in the way they present their questions and thoughts! I was watching the news and one gentleman was calm and before he asked his question he explaned it was a yes or no question and not one that needed elaborated on! Guess What? He never got an answer but a sly smile and the representative looked for someone else to get a question from! THEY WANTED CHANGE! NOW THEY GOT IT! Voters wanting to be represented by their elected officials!
I am not writing to start a fued but just think it's strange that no one has been arrested yet and wonder if this isn't going to turn into something worse before answers start to flow. It is funny how the news media all day long are airing the public views and have changed sides on who they support. Health Care may be a long nasty one and I hope it isn't forever like the OJ trial! Why can't politicians just answer a yes or no question? I already know the answer! I hope the public does too! Most politicians will never get pinned down for an answer because it could be political suicide! I would not want to be a representative that was asked like one was today "who do you think you work for"? Maybe this will bring a true leader and statesman to the surface that will do his due diligence! We can only hope!
