Virginia Lawmaker Wants To Protect Residents From The Coming Of The Anti-Christ

But you are told to carry a drivers license or an identification card, right?

I think this is great technology, but only thinking of the negative aspects, could outweigh the possible good that could be done.

 

I'm notonly thinking of the negative aspects.
I think this is very good technology but I also have the right to say I don't want to have a chip implanted in my body.

It is not the same as needing to be licensed before you're allowed to drive a car.

 

It's not the license, it's the card that allows the police to identify you when they stop you.

 

Technically, neither are legally mandated nor should they be.

But you don't see the fundamental difference between a possession and an implant?

 

Dead-on.

 

In Virginia, we had a girl abducted from a concert, murdured and left in an empty field in Charlottesville. This all took a few weeks to transpire.

If I was her parent, I would have liked to known where the hell she was for those two weeks.

If you think employeers and insurance companies will take this data over, then you might as well think they already know what fast food you buy with your debit cards and all the porn you order with your Capital One cards.

 

1) Making decisions based on incredibly rare circumstances is horrible policy. It's just playing off unfounded fears. Hell, it wouldn't be that hard for predators to use the chips to track kids themselves.

2) I deal almost entirely in cash

3) As her parents, they'd have the right to make this decision for her, so that's irrelevant to whether people should have the choice or not, which is what we are discussion.

So basically, your entire point is irrelevant.

There are currently 294 missing children under the age of 10.

To me, that's worth the risk.

 

1) Where would you put the chips that they couldn't be easily removed?

2) Most of those children are dead and many were dead before anyone knew they were missing.

3) Again, this is entirely irrelevant because nobody was talking about banning the damn chips.

 

Incidentally and completely off the subject, the missing child link you provided shows 1 child who was abducted by a stranger in the last 3 years who would now be 10 years old or younger.

Parents spend way, way, way too much time worrying about stranger abductions, which are insanely rare.

 

If you could even remotely begin to prove that the chips would do anything to help, you might have a case. Inasmuch as you can't, you don't.

 

But this bill is about implants by employers and insurance companies, so I'm not sure what this has to do with that. I've got no problem with a parent voluntarily making a choice to implant their child to prevent abductions (presuming it's done a way the kid can choose to remove when he gets older), but that sure as hell ain't the reason employers want to do it.

This guy is sponsoring good legislation, he's just citing a batshit reason for it. Although, if revelations actually does say that "mark" stuff (I'm also not a theologian), I could see it being a reasonable fear to hardcore bible believers.
