[edit] Inserting a link...
Is it appropriate to include a link on this page that has the original article that is spoken about? I am referring to http://www.timesonline.co.uk/newspaper/0%2C%2C2710-1218615%2C00.html and the final paragraph in the section about Civil Liberties in the United Kingdom.
How should this link be formatted? Should it be suggested as the original source of information or rather a further resource? Thank you. Adamburton 16:14, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
I don't understand the wording of a piece of the particle, which says the Constituion of Canada is similar to the U.S. with the exception of the protection against establishment of religion. However, in the Establishment of Religion article, it says it is against establish of religion. Am I confused, or does something need to be changed?
[edit] The Right to Privacy
- How can there be any right to privacy without any ownership of private property? If the socialist government of the United States continues to confiscate all privately-owned land and property under the doctrine of "sustainable development", there will eventually be no right to privacy left for Americans. This right to privacy might cease to exist; because there would be "no room left for it".
[edit] China
I removed some petty vandalism and hopefully someone with more knowledge on this subject can just edit the section to include a brief synopsis of the main article on Chinese civil liberties which is linked to in this section: TG312274 23:43, 24 November 2005 (UTC)
How can any person or a goverment machinery who was not directly appointed by an individual in situation but by the assumed mass that even doesnt know of the individual can take the liberty to even claim to judge an aindividual who suffered of the situation by the unacceptable means like an official position can define and take liberty to constrain an individual in any country? be it india or US or Canada or any country. Where is the law that protects an individual from the arragance of the self appointed officials and officials appointed by the goverment who actually don't comply and act lesser to individual?
[edit] 'Interdisciplinary project'
May I draw your attention to a new article at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPS_tracking . We're there in the early stages of a discussion of a weapon that puts civil liberties into a degree of danger that has been unknown so far. I'm talking about GPS/GSM bugs. These devices do not only constantly determine your car's whereabouts, they also transmit its geographical coordinates to your surveillant(s). These devices are tiny and so sensitive nowadays, that they can be hidden somewhere at your car (even below it) and still keep on working.
Please read 'GPS tracking', spread the word and help us solving the issue through your civil liberties input!

[edit] Freedom House Link
I removed the following link because it was broken:
The Freedom house folks seem to have re-designed their site, and the country ratings are somewhat buried. Should we try to link to the rankings page, or directly to the PDF for 2006? It would be helpful for this site to provide an easy link (Rather than a dynamic link) to the ranking content. Perhaps we can just point to their homepage? Does anyone have an opinion?

[edit] Cleanup
Made some edits, and removed the cleanup tags. :) --Noypi380 16:17, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Rearrangement
I rearranged the introduction and qualified some sweeping statements. I also moved the commentary on civil liberties in the UK away from the more descriptive section on civil liberties and their constitutional status around the world and into its own section.Atticus Finch 00:41, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
