As the recent examples of the NSA/Edward Snowden and Zimmerman affairs show, civil liberties need to be
discussed more widely.

That, and my term on MIRT is about to expire so I would have more time to act as a host.
Also, being charged with monitoring fellow DUers is quite wearing...

I don't think that there would be much work to do but I'd like for the group to generate more OPs, the ACLU is filled with opportunities to take action and to inform, and I find that a most worthy cause.

Many thanks!

the perception of people and the liberties they defend isn't popular these days. it makes myself, and those like minded progressives a target.

good luck.

Edit: i'll serve as co host if needed.

Hoping to post links to ways we can take action, and hope that you can find time to post to the group or keep it kicked.
