The world is getting worse and worse these days. Sure this country is republic and everyone should have a say, but the problem is our representatives, our legislators that don't understand the implications of the laws they pass. After Sept. 11, bills branded with the phrase "will help defeat terrorism" are right off the bat, deamed to be good for America. The fact of the matter is, they're almost never good for us. It seems as time progresses, more and more bullets are shot into our feet.
