1. No, this was debunked at least 3 times yesterday. The uniformed
Secret Service already exists. This act JUST CHANGES THE NAME from "Executive Protective Service" to "Secret Service Uniformed Division".

(d) Conforming Amendments to Laws Affecting District of Columbia- (1) Section 1537(d) of title 31, United States Code, is amended--

(A) by striking `and the Executive Protective Service' and inserting `and the Secret Service Uniformed Division'; and

(B) by striking `their protective duties' and all that follows and inserting `their protective duties under sections 3056 and 3056A of title 18.'

4. Waaaaait a sec. Remember, this is BUSH you are talking about.
Which means they will will treat this statute in expansive manner, hire more uniforms, and post them everyplace.
Anti war march? Terrorist threat.
Pro Abortion meeting? Terrorist threat.
Protest against Shrub? Terrorist threat.

you see the pattern here?

2. Amerika's SS.
Let's see we have muni, city, county, state, forest preserve, ATF, INS, TSA, HSA, FBI, Coast Guard, Military Police, Secret Service, Treasury, - wait, I know I missed some.

AND WE NEED MORE PEOPLE IN UNIFORM?




Dear NSA Data miner:

TO HELL WITH YOU AND TO HELL WITH GEORGE W. BUSH!

Have a nice day.
