Call the post office and tell them about the theft. It is plain WRONG.
Demand the return of the contents. Then have your congressman replaced
for complicity in the crimes against you, the citizen and VOTER.

I received mine today and the side of the envelope was neatly sliced
open 3/4 of the way. The contents were intact (the QSL card and a
broadcast schedule). One thing that did strike me as odd was that
there was an empty small plastic wrapper inside. I now wonder if that
contained something that was taken?

Did you sing "I AM GLAD TO BE AN AMERICAN BECAUSE AT LEAST WE KNOW WE
ARE FREE" today?

You can thank "your" Senator and Congressman for voting for the
PATRIOT ACT which permits this type of fascist garbage.

The proper term would be 'totalitarian' garbage. Both communist and
fascist extremists form Totalitarian governments on one end of the
political spectrum. On the other end of that spectrum is Anarchy.
Classical anarchy, not a state of chaos.

The idea of 'Right' and 'Left' extremes is merely smoke and mirrors.
They both result in loss of Liberty.

Are you saying classical anarchy results in a loss of liberty? If so,
how so? Are you an anarchist?

I'm in the middle of the road. That is the best place to be. Moderation
in all things.

I used the phrase Classical Anarchy so we didn't all get visions of
Boris Badenov blowing up everything. Destruction isn't what Anarchy is
about. To me, it means no State planning my life and future.

On the other end, Extremist commies *and* fascists both tend to control
the population, using whatever means needed. The secret police are
especially important to BOTH of these types and the citizens are
encouraged to spy on each other. With enough fear, you get complete
cooperation. We are at the dawn of that State now.

Have any Presidential candidates promised to repeal the Patriot Acts?

.....that Governments long established should not be changed for light
and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that
mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than
to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are
accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing
invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under
absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off
such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future
security.......

Perhaps it's time for another change.............. " ....it is

I understand what classical anarchy is. But you are correct in
assuming most people don't because they don't. More of the dumbing
down agenda of our rulers bearing fruit - oxen are much easier to
control than intellectuals.

The more I study history and observe world events the better anarchy
looks. There are lots of good anarchy sites on the web. One to check
out is http://www.audioanarchy.org/index.php

And of course none of the candidates have promised to repeal the
Patriot Act. Do you really think any of them would be in a position to
ascend to the Presidency if they had? It wouldn't be permitted.

Noam Chomsky asserts that the US is, and always has been, a polyarchy,
i.e. the ruling elite choose the individuals who will rule and then
let the people vote for them to create the illusion of participatory
democracy. Presidential election history makes it very difficult to
refute his thesis.

Very likely true. The candidates are pre selected for our approval. It's
like a shell game where even if you win you lose.

Same here. Some have received a sponge, letter opener, or post it notes.

Ace,
Did you get the "empty plastic" also?

Yes.

Even in the early 60's when I
was in high school listening to Radio Peking/Radio Havana, those QSL's
were unopened and I got some freebie goodies along with the QSL's. I
remember a large, hanging calendar with famous Chinese scenes on it,
that got through! Even Radio Tirana and Berlin International sent
little gifts that somehow got through. I still think it is Homeland
Security opening all mail from foreign countries and taking
out"dangerouse" articles!

Steve and Floyd,

When I got my previous Radio Prague QSL that contained the letter opener,
the envelope was as you've described... slit at end (not taped), but the
plastic
wrapped letter opener was inside.

I am guessing that the metal blade of the opener sets off some kind of
sensor
or alerts customs in some way. They check the contents and it's hit or miss
as
to whether or not the opener remains in the envelope after that. Mine could
have
easily fallen out and disappeared, leaving only the plastic wrapper. Bottom
line,
it's functional but not something you'll miss if it doesn't make it to you
intact.

The secret police have opened your private mail, taken material that
doesn't belong to them and YOU are happy they left a bit of the contents.

If a Democratic President in Washington ever did that to you, you'd be
in the streets killing people with the ten thousand rounds of Russian
ammunition you have hidden in the crawl space beneath the house.

Drunken goof balls, such as yourself, can't see the danger right under

I have no problem with someone checking the mail for illicit materials.

But, let me say this: if we were to find that something was sent into CanaDuh,

That's nothing new, I can remember having mail opened for years. In fact, quite
a bit of mail from Communist countrys was sent unsealed (flap merely tucked in)
to begin with because they knew it would be opened.
