personally, although I appluad their efforts, the version before 
included things to the effect of not cooperating with federal law 
enforcement and such when they felt it was a violation of privacy or 
whatever

as much as I would like to see that happen, I can't ask them to pass 
something like that, because after all, right now, it *is* still the 
law. A resolution voicing opposition to it is alright, but one 
encouraging outright violation is over the top

pardon me if it has been changed, i'll go read it now :p
