Dept of Homeland Security up to 1984

[liveonearth]

Interesting discussion here of the REAL ID act, issued yesterday by the DHS. National level ID cards slated for every citizen starting in May 2008!! They work fast, and I have not heard this discussed before today. How can this Department just issue edicts like this? What is our congress doing? Why haven't I heard about this?

A post by a man I read carefully.

I guess I missed it when you brought it up. The last round of passports they generated before the chips have shorter expiration dates--they want to force us all to get trackable. And it looks like they can for the usual reason: the citizenry isn't paying attention/doesn't care. I make a little bit of noise but if everyone made as much noise as me, things would be different.

Glad you're getting stabilized back in OH. Looking forward to regular posts from you again.

I heard from a friend that last week someone hacked into the RFIP chips that they're installing in passports. That didn't take long.

This person called Lisa Reynolds has called and harassed my family members, neighbors and co workers. She was rude and nasty to them, my father is disable and she has called him several times leaving no message just hanging up. My neighbors she tells that she hasd important travel information forone of my bosses, she mentions that she has tried to call me but I have never recieved messages from her. Id this considered stalking? It's crazy what people think they can just do what ever they want to other people. Very Concerned Person

Interesting. I don't know what the legal definition of stalking is, but it does sound like harassment. Are you replying to another post in which I discussed being called by an individual who was looking for an old coworker of mine? Did the phone number match?
