From: Rob Buckman Area: Public Key Encryption To: Christopher Baker 2 Apr 95 20:43:00 Subject: Exon Bill Passes As Amendment (fwd) UpdReq -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- On 30 Mar 95 01:22, Christopher Baker said this to Rob Buckman about that CB> the ACLU often is the only thing standing between you and the erosion CB> of your Constitutional rights. I haven't seen anything Constitutional about ACLU positions, unfortunately. I am severely disappointed that EFF would take a position on this, as well. They've now lost the non-partisan status I perceived them to have. What I have seen is the ACLU *abusing* the Constitution by expanding the definition of "freedom of speech" [does anyone doubt the Founding Fathers intended that to mean *political* speech?] to include every irresponsible, profane utterance of verbage that spews forth from the mouths (and keyboards) of the Fidonauts, Internauts, AOLnauts, etc. Regards. Rob ... The Constitution is not a suicide pact, but liberals use it that way. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6 iQCVAwUBL39hykzOyumG9rYtAQGJUgQAq6RKwzQEqOYaQizIu++5TAAW3JRsZLnF nfGPM8hziRCfqY/G7I4tvmIoBoTZTvAz5c0xrkmQFM45nu23djfryINFLLUoFUpK UQWyTLm3E/DL8VhJTpkHanO2UJj4zFCmHTknzeUqfmA/wZsNS1f9bQTuPmFxvgmQ uulPJsDdgWE= =YcmT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --- Blue Wave/RA v2.12 # Origin: Lysistrata RPO, Ft Walton Beach FL, 904-244-4637 (1:366/844) 201434369420143436942014343694201434369420143436942014343694201 From: Glen Todd Area: Public Key Encryption To: Gary DeMontigny 4 Apr 95 01:53:12 Subject: Bluewave & pgp UpdReq Bright the day, Gary!
