qui tacet consentire videtur

Has anyone been following what is going on in Massachusetts? And when I say "what is going on" I mean Senate Bill 2028 "An Act Relative to Pandemic and Disaster Preparation and Response in the Commonwealth." (http://www.mass.gov/legis/bills/senate/186/st02/st02028.htm) I find myself unable to express my true opinion of this bill without turn this into an R rated blog. But don't take my word for it.

I find myself wondering who resurrected George Orwell and got him to write legislation? Only he could write such fascist drivel. I am flabbergasted. Do the citizens of Massachusetts really know what their elected officials are doing? Do those elected officials really know what they are doing? Did they actually read the bill before voting yea? Or did they think the Bill of Rights was recently repealed?

I sincerely hope the citizens of Massachusetts take this legislation to court as soon as it passes into law. This article has a good listing of the violations posed by this bill: http://www.naturalnews.com/026934_health_public_health_quarantine.html. We can all say we have no need for this to become precedent. Silence is the last thing we need. We must fight this encroachment upon our freedoms.
