It certainly is disturbing. All the talk of compulsory biometric ID cards, vehicle blackboxes and tracking / cataloguing us all, and for what
purpose.
I'm afraid I just don't buy the security and war on terrorism crap the governments keep spouting as a reason. I have a clear record, never been in
trouble with the police so I can travel extensively and pose no risk. However, only I know what my thoughts and intentions are and no amount of ID
cards and cataloguing will reveal that.
I do not see what right the state has to know where I go, who I meet, what route I take, what speed I drive at etc.... etc...
I have always been a law abiding person but there comes a time when you have to just take a step back and look at what is being imposed, and by whom
and ask them, as representatives of the people and public servants, just what the hell they are doing.
After all, they are elected representatives and are not there to give themselves sweeping dictatorial powers over the rest of us. Unless of course we
let that happen
