Of freedom losses? Here we go(?): RAGE OVER RAGE The messageboard on the official RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE website has been closed "in light of repeated phone calls...received from the Secret Service" with regard to "inflammatory posts" on the system following the terrorist strikes in the US earlier this week. Like many band websites, the official RATM website, at www.ratm.com, contains a messageboard for fans to host discussions. However, according to a posting on the website, the company that hosts the messageborad "will no longer donate their services to keep this message board running in light of repeated phone calls they have received from the Secret Service with regards to inflammatory posts on several of the forums". The posting continues: "We are endeavouring to correct the situation and get your free exchange of information and ideas up and running as soon as possible." A UK spokesperson for the group was unavailable to comment on the situation today (September 14). In related news, Rage guitarist Tom Morello has issued a statement about Tuesday's (September 11) events. He wrote: "Our deepest sympathy and condolences go out to all the people and their families affected by the attacks on Tuesday. The loss of innocent life is just terrible, and our thoughts go out to all of you who personally may have had friends or family killed or injured in the tragedy. The pain felt across the country demonstrates the lesson of Tuesday's events: that the taking of innocent life is devastating to a society and terribly wrong. "On Tuesday, the victims were American. But the horrible scenes that we've witnessed on TV this week are regular occurrences in other places around the globe. And too often, violence like this has been meted out by our own country and its client states. We should stand together against this type of violence in all its forms, whenever it happens, whether its done in the name of religious fanaticism, or in the names of our own domestic elite. "Our best wishes go out to all of you. Take care of yourselves, and each other." nme.com

OT <<"give every passenger a rod" when they get on the plane.>> Brazil Parliament Votes To Allow Air Passengers To Carry Light Firearms From Thomas Buyea ranger116@webtv.net From Tomás Mano de Carvalho Alliance Nacional do Brasil 9-15-1 RIO DE JANEIRO - To avoid that an aircraft is used as bomb against important buildings, the Brazilian parlament decided today to liberate light weapons (calibre less than 0.38) for all passengers over 21 years old. As 65% of all Brazilians with income more than US$ 2000 always walks equipped with gun, the government finds it safe and guaranteed that sufficient persons will react against any eventual highjackings. Extra information will be distributed and presented by the air hostess, when they show the safety equipment they will also inform the passengers to prepare eventual shot with precision, always take aim at chest to avoid that bullets perforate the shell of the aircraft. The president, Fernando Henrique Cardoso, wanted to make his veto against the proposal, but was rejected by the astounding majority of 234 against 6 votes. Pass this information to American news-agencies to lighten a new angle in perspective of criminality. rense.com
