Big Brit is Watching You!

Britian will soon be the first country in the world to monitor the movements of every car, every day.

That means a record will be kept of everywhere you've been, and can be analyzed. According to the article below, they will be especially suspicious of vehicles that come near other vehicles that are used by criminals. So potentially you could be at a light next to a stolen car and suddenly YOU become a suspect, and your movements are now going to be monitored, and you personally put under suspicion.

Let's say you visit your local dealer to score some smoke. Let's say he gets busted (for anything, really). They go back and see who's been visiting the dealer, and guess what? They find YOU in the tapes (more than once).

It could also just be that you live next door, but there's no way to tell how involved you are with this person. It's just presumed guilt by physical proximity.

Where will they draw the line, and who will oversee the overseers?

Answers: There are no lines & Only God.

Enjoy your New Big Brit Brother. Criminals don't stand a chance. Unless of course they happen to be the ones doing the spying...

And MI5 is going to have access to this? Shouldn't be too hard to keep dossiers on everyone, including everywhere they've been, every phone call, every internet visit, every email, bank transaction, etc. And info about you will be far better organzied and easily accessible than on your own computer.

Can you imagine the potential for abuse of this system?

Yup, there's nowhere to hide, and if anyone on the inside has it in for you, good fuckin' luck!

Messenger From the Summer of Love
By David Echt
Review by Skip Stone
For many, the Summer of Love was a time when hippies ruled supreme in their Day-Glo attire, when psychedelic acid tests replaced cocktail parties, brotherly love replaced prejudice, freedom replaced conformity, and sharing replaced greed. It was a time to change the rules, to experiment with novel living arrangements, open relationships and of course powerful mind-expanding drugs. Read Our Review!
