What do you UK members think of the proposed ID card scheme? Good or bad? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
us NZers are kinda stuck with it..the previous very fascist Right Wing govt enforced Drivers Licences with photographs and invasive database knowledge collections...this centre Left Govt has eased up on it a bit... The US citizen take all of this for granted..they have been eternally bagged, tagged and catalogued with Social Security Cards.....that you need everywhere from cashing your checks to brushing your teeth..and all the databases..banks, libraries, hospitals, Blockbuster..are all streamlined and regulated via this number... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, my american mate said their social security cards are crap too- not even laminated and you're not allowed to laminate them yourself. He says they fall apart and disintigrate all the time and they're a hassle to get replaced... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
case in point |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
WHAT!!!!!????? That is insane. No wonder all the Americans I know are so content ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
heheh..it's so scary its almost funny..shit your pants funny.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I doubt it'll happen.... a) too expensive... b) easy to forge.. c) unpopular with voters d) too big-brotherish.... and what use would they be?...can't see em being much use against Terrorism which is the thinking behind em... Bloody 9/11!!!...it was a Governments Wet Dream come true... Still, would be nice excuse for another Poll Tax type riot tho... |

Britain needs a good national riot -- hopefully i'll be there to lob a few molotov cocktails into the houses of parliament :) |

If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear! I think the whole idea of identity cards is a great idea! |

Jedi Chris you are a great fella (lightsabre notwithstanding) :) but I have to disagree Its the new wave of fascist control of our lives what if you forgot it one day and got asked for it by police ? you would automatically be a criminal? Fuck that . lets just go back to chopping peoples heads off . |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i trust your joking? it's not a case of being afraid of being caught doing illegal things -- -- it's a case of having your privacy destroyed, your details sold to corporations (already happens of course), and of being assassinated by Government Ninjas for talking ill of them on a rainy Tuesday |
||||||||

Do you know for absolute definate you have no herritary diseases? Or has your unkle done ANYTHING wrong in his life? that will be on your card chris. You are an individual, why do you want to tell another being everything about yourself which they can and will use against you? I'm just playing devils advocate.... but please tell me if you will post how many affairs your mother has had, how many gay tendancies your father has and why you didn't perform on those tests when you were eight years old? I know that's a bit strong but you get what I'm saying (as the advocate ofcourse). |

True Marlowe check this link for the awesome ultimate power of ninjas.... http://www.realultimatepower.net/ read it, it's funny... |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
It really doesn't bother me....you are all thinking the negative things! I gave my opinion, so there you are. Anyway...I'll let you guys carry on the discussion...I need some sleep. See you all tomorrow/today...whatever!! :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
bye then sleep with one eye open just 'cos U aint paranoid don't mean they aint watchin' ya ;D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you're just kissing ass for when they research you for your card - you want to be a Citizen Against Everyone!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nobody's trying to bother you? have you thought about all these 'negative' things and come up with 'you've got nothing to hide, you've got nothing to fear'? or have you read that somewhere? It's not an attack Chris, there is nothing wrong with changing your opinion, that's growth. |
||||||||

|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh, but there are a few people on slsk who have my tracks who have cable -- "dozier" is your best bet :) he's got most of my tracks and he's on cable and he ALWAYS seems to be online :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Which is your favourite track? I'll try dozier, it's not my fault I'm a millionaire, I love music! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i guess i don't love music enough :-/ i dono what my favourite track is -- people have expressed a liking for liquid reverie, but it's not like a tune that can be remixed (i think), because it's just a baroque inverted canon *hehe*# maybe try worlds within worlds or, the one i have a soft spot for, BLIND TORTURE KILL (tunnel of love mix) :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Blind torture kill? let me do your favourite......It sounds good anyway... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok mofo - it's only a little short un anyways -- just don't tell me it's too short, cos everyone tells me that :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hmm..Jedi Chris's complacency and lack of anxiety over the proposed obliteration of privacy is almost..ummm frighteningly refreshing... I for one even though I dont have a lot to hide would probably be behind bars if I was still in the states just because of my ethnicity...a lot of Innocent International students from my region ended up being pulled up and questioned and jailed in the states... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
really? fucking hell man that's shit :( |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
many many..Pakistani and Irani students ended up behind bars..without court dates or any such.. did you get my email? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I tried to send you another but was informed that your mailbox was full..it was elaborating on the last piece..with documents from the oil companies and such |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
weird - my mailbox isn't full.... odd that - maybe it was when someone sent me some pictures that were over a MB? well, it's not full now anyways :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
