About Me

My photo
My name is Justin Ussery, I am a 26 years old Marine Corps Veteran current;y working for Samsung Austin Semiconductor. I have been married for 2 years with no kids. I was born and raised in Southern California. My background as far as work experience is all dealing with electronics, while serving I was a radar technician now as a civilian I work with ion implanters. My political ideology is a post modern, political influences would be Ron Paul, Alex Jones (slightly) and Allen Russo. I have never voted in a presidential election because I have not seen a presidential candidate worth voting for thus far. I am taking this class because it is on the engineering degree plan, but I hope to expand my knowledge on the United States Government to better evaluate government policies and actions. On the civics quiz I only got 4 answers correct but on the current events quiz I got 8 answers correct.

Blog Stage 8

I agree with some of the points Tyler makes in his post however, there are a few thing overlooked. For instance, the 4th amendment right is not going to be taken away but when the citizens of the United States willfully allow government officials to overstep their 4th Amendment right it is the same as citizens relenquishing that right. Also, CISPA may seem like a great idea to fight terrorism but why is it at the costs of internet users privacy? Terrorism has claimed less victims than cigarettes and alcohol related deaths, so why is our privacy being taken away for something that is not as deadly as others things that are more common and readily available to citizens such as cigarettes and alcohol. If CISPA was such a great idea, why is there so much opposition from major internet companies like Mozilla and other politcal activist? It seems this is more freedom being traded in for protection and every bit of privacy we once had will be gone.
