$1 Billion FBI Facial Recognition Project to Track Everyone: Do You Support Law Enforcement Stimulus Program?

"l "to reduce terrorist and criminal activities by improving and expanding biometric identification and criminal history information services through research, evaluation, and implementation of advanced technology."

Typical government speak (GovSpeak) put it under the umbrella of fighting terrorism and you can do anything you want to freedom and civil liberties.

That is ALOT of money, but isn't this 'Big Brother'?

It is a direct violation of the Fourth Amendment.

The real criminals are in the government.

While the government spends billions on cameras, and face recognition technology directed at us to spy on us all, people are being arrested for pointing cameras at police.

I hope I'm not the only one that sees the problem here. Its all about using our money and resources to keep us in line when its the government that stages criminal activities like fast and furious that needs the cameras pointed at them.

EXACTLY RIGHT!

Bravo!!!

I'd rave you multiple times were it possible.

Indiana House approves bill covering police entering homes

By Eric Bradner
March 1, 2012

" INDIANAPOLIS — Hoosiers could legally defend themselves against police officers who enter their home under a measure that the Indiana House approved on a 74-24 vote, moving it another step toward becoming law, on Thursday.

The measure would overturn last year’s Indiana Supreme Court decision. The court ruled that homeowners do not have the right to use force against law enforcement officials who they believe are illegally entering their homes. ......

...... Proponents said the measure provides police with additional legal protection, while affirming the “Castle Doctrine” idea that homeowners have the right to resist anyone, including police, who invades their homes...... "

Just because you CAN do something with technology, doesn't mean you really SHOULD.

I won't be hiding my face.

All that money could go to a lot of better uses than this.

NO, But not surprised.
“It’s clear the government is broadly collecting information regarding innocent Americans. It appears officials no longer need individualised suspicion, and a person’s good conduct does not protect them from scrutiny.” -Michael German (a 16-year FBI veteran of counterterrorism operations)

Track this!

Philo-Publius is not a crook!

This is insane, however the government by pulling this crap will be swelling the ranks of the small and no government crowds.

Thank you Hollywood for coming up with ideas for the government.

Hollywood is full of Liberals who support Obama like rats to the Pied Piper.

Except that Obama is only following Bush's lead. He (Bush) expanded Presidential Powers & illegally surveilled Americans without punishment or reprimand. Congress allowed it. Congress also passed The Patriot Act with bipartisan support... then the NDAA, also with bipartisan support. Notice a trend here? I don't know who's pulling the puppet strings, but someone sure as hell is & they'd like you (& I) to think that it's one or the other "party" doing the dirty work, but it isn't. It's both "parties" working together to weaken The People by causing us to hate our neighbor(s) so that they can increase their power... which seems to be working exceedingly well.

One cannot rationally look at the situation & blame one President or the other any more than one "party" or the other. It is painfully & obviously clear that it's both "parties" & that someone behind the scenes is directing our President(s) in their actions.

Eisenhower warned us. Ron Paul has been warning us for decades & the reason he's been belittled & demeaned is because he frightens the establishment so much.
The only people laughing now are the Plutocrats in charge.
It's horrible to watch one's nation collapse & become something ugly & frightening. But, since those willing to stand up & stop it are belittled & demeaned by the majority (sheeple), there isn't much hope for us as a nation.

No, if anything, a lot of them are just children fighting in the schoolyard. They stir the pot against the other side to make theirs look better. That's politics for you, I guess, for the most part, but we still have to individually choose, unless we want to be left with no choice or right to choose at all. I'm choosing the best available and most likely shot at not having four years of the same...
