Bill of Rights Defense Resolutions
I received a letter today from the national Libertarian Party (asking for money, of course) that contained the following "P.S." that was under the signature of LP Executive Director Joe Seehusen:
"Have you heard that there's a mini-revolution already underway in America? In response to the Patriot Act, 196 cities and towns have now passed Bill of Rights Defense Resolutions. These communities are defying orders to help conduct "sneak-and-peek" searches, spy on political protesters and turn over library records to the FBI.
That's right: Ordinary Americans are rising up against the rapidly expanding police state -- and we're trying to help them...."
Yikes!
Then I did a Google search on "Bill of Rights Defense Resolutions" and got a bunch of hits, including this:

which is really interesting reading.
