NEW PRIVACY INVASION: GOVERNMENT VS. KIDS


Riley Stratton, a 13-year-old Minnewaska, Minnesota student, was summoned to the principal’s office where officials in the presence of a police officer demanded that she provide the password to her Facebook account.  She had posted that she hated a particular hall monitor because she was mean.  In the interim, the parent of a male student filed a complaint that the girl had posted something of a sexual nature.  They demanded that she fork over her password.  She was then punished for her Facebook remark about the hall monitor, a post that was made off campus and not during school hours.  The ACLU intervened on her behalf and secured a $70,000 out-of-court settlement. 

COMMENTS:
It is also significant to note that the girl’s parents were never notified about the allegations and were not asked for permission for the involuntary search.  All entities of our governments, under the Obama leadership have become intrusive and oppressive and are now attacking the liberties and freedoms of school kids.  How horrible and sad it is that we allow this to happen in America. 

TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. Is Russia really going to go ahead and invade more of the Ukraine?  I thought that was a lot of talk.  (Jenny ~ Gilbert, AZ)
A. As I said a few days ago, the history of Russia has been to aggressively pursue acquisition of more countries whenever they can get away with it.  That’s how they assimilated the Soviet Union.  Putin is very intelligent and smart enough not to bite of more than he can chew in one bite; it looks as if he is in fact going after the Eastern portion of Ukraine.  After he’s done with that, look for him to gobble up the rest of the country.  Then, he’ll be on to bigger grabs.  Who is going to stop him?   

Q. I heard that the hotel where Michelle and her entourage are staying in China was deemed too expensive for Joe Biden to stay at in December?  What gives?  (Kim ~ Salem, OR)
A. Well, as you know, Biden is not black, not a member of the Muslim Brotherhood and he’s not the First Lady. 

Q. How can this Administration get away with doing everything possible to prevent the requirement that voters show identification?  (Chad ~ Willows, CA)
A. Because we roll over, play dead and allow them to do it.  All we do is jawbone, whine and complain.  No one has the guts and the courage to contact their Congressional delegation or to put their opinions in print where the rest of the country can read them.
