Since I do not really interact with the homecoming activities, I decided to do something else. I read this article awhile back about the FBI secretly places GPS device on Students car without his permission. The device was discovered after the young man took his car for an oil change and the mechanic spotted it and took it off. A few days lata FBI agents came to his house to retrieve their property. A lawsuit is in process due to privacy issues. I find this interesting because according to the FBI it was ok to do this since it was all on public property. I was very confused and couldn't believe what the government is capable of doing and get away with it.
This in my opinion is a breach of privacy laws and big brother needs to give us our privacy back. The problem here is this is only the begininng and eventually they will bug our houses to listening in our phone calls and requiring us to have gps locators in us!! We need to stop this government takeover and the government has to much control. Also this was an obvious case of racial profiling in my opinion due to the students racial and historic background. This is not right and should of been handled differently.
Crazy story...
