This is actually not about democrats, republican, liberals or Conservatives. This is about democracy and freedom on one side and dictatorship and police state on the other side. It doesn't matter if you are democrats, liberal, conservative, green or anything else between, as long as you don't want a government with fascism ideology and a police state, you must try to protest against the destruction of human rights. This is much more important than if you want high tax, low tax, big government, small government or if you are for or against gay marriage.
Yes it shouldn't be a party issue, but remember according to most of those on here if you're against how the Iraq war was fought, or debate any issue that goes against the current administration you're a liberal or terrorist supporter
First they came for non Americans, Then they came for Americans, Lawyers were next (Lynee Stewart), Now they are coming for priests.
This country is headed down a dark path. I feel that the coming bird flu pandemic will be the straw the breaks the camals back
This is part of the whole plan for the police state, don't forget that most people will be reluctant to imprison, torture or kill some one as long as they see that person as John Doe, living in freedom street, USA but label the same person as terrorist or terrorist supporter and very few have problem with torture or killing. The problem is that when such practices has established itself as normal, then you always have to be scared and worried that may be you will be the next person labeled as terrorist supporter or Anti-American and censor yourself constantly in order to survive.
I'm extremely angry about the gradual erosion of freedoms here in the US. Here is a list of problems that will eventually cause the collaspe of the US unless we fight back: 1. Jobs are going overseas. 2. The borders are wide open, while we fight a "war on terrorism overseas" 3. The cost of education is going up. 4. The cost of food is going up. 5. The cost of gas is going up. 6. Your paycheck going down. 7. Increases in immigration, both legal and illegal. 8. The average American owes 8,000.00 in debt. 9. Our national debt is in the trillions 10. The government is passing laws making harder to file bankruptcy. 11. They can now take your house whenever they want, whether you want to move or not. 12. The American dollar is losing its purchasing power at an increasing rate. 13. The energy industry profits 9 billion dollars, while Americans are being told to "turn off the lights and conserve energy" Why are these things happening? I believe the reason is we have a group of powerful men at the top who want to destroy the middle class and create a neofeudal society. If I sound like a "conspiracy theorist" then so be it. I know their is a conspiracy when every time I check my mailbox, I've got five offers for credit cards, but when I go to the bank and ask the teller how to convert my money in gold or silver, she looks at me like I'm speaking some alien language. Why are banks in such a rush to put us in debt? Why is converting your money into precious metals so hard? You people better wake up. But I'm not going into a concentration camp like they did in Nazi Germany. And I'm not going to be a slave. I'm going to uphold the second amendment, and if I have to die, I'm going to go down shooting. It is better to die standing on your two feet than live life on your knees.
What is most concerning about this is that the article lacks clear sources of information. It points to an article as a source, but that article doesn't quite cite sources and some of the information is disinformation. People are quite loose with their facts, and their opinions. Lets not mix the two.
In case anyone wants to read it (unlike the legislators who passed the Act but never actually got a chance to read it first), you can find the Patriot Act here.
You mean like the 1918 Spanish Flu virus pandemic that killed millions of people worldwide and was recently reconstructed by
if there is a blird flu out break, then then will most likely their will be marshall law at first beacause it will be nessaary to stop the spread but then once its declared it mgiht be pretty difficult to get back to a normal state of being
That sounds about right. Marshall law is usually declared to keep some catastrophe, real or fabricated, under control, and is initially seen as 'necessary'. Media clampdowns are typically part of that process.
this not entirely related but interesting http://www.cnn.com/2005/POLITICS/11/07/antiwar.sermon.ap/ The IRS is threating this churches tax exempt status due to the priest adding anit-war , anti- tax cuts for the rich stuff to the sermon apparently How many churches do you think that are out there preaching against abortion rights, homo marraige etc?
Just when you think it can't get any worse! WOW! I would think no churches would ever support a war. (Well, maybe the hillbilly born again ones! )
