The "patriot act"?Last edited Wed Apr 25, 2012, 03:03 AM USA/ET - Edit history (1)Our power and our freedom are in grave danger. Institutions stealing our freedom are right now working on stealing even more. The people must unite in saying NO! to these black-shirts, these who destroy the Bill of Rights and the Constitution. Our combined voice can scare them all back under the rocks under from which they'd crawled! I imagine other people who thought they were free, watched while similar agencies grew and grew, because it didn't effect them right now, didn't effect them today...WE have a chance to STOP the same thing from happening! We have the lessons of history with which to prevent the same endgame! Do we say NO! WE are the power in this country! Unite! These agencies are just ideas! We CAN say NO to them!
5. They promise us only the bad people will lose their freedomLast edited Wed Apr 25, 2012, 03:39 AM USA/ET - Edit history (2)that's how it goes in any police state. The "bad people" alone will be punished and the "good people" stand to be rewarded - the two handed seduction of evil. Those bad people - they've been asking for it for a long time. They deserve everything bad that happens to them, and more. With them out of the way, the rest of us are going to finally start getting ahead and it's all going to be coming up roses. When the majority wake up to the fact that they live under a tyranny, it's too late. All the way to the bottom, the authorities claim they must have greater and greater latitude to act in order to keep people safe, as well as the ability to designate and judge offenders in secrecy. In the name of fighting disorder, crime and subversion, they create the environment in which the "police" can commit crimes themselves with total impunity. The opportunity is never missed. Any resistance is crushed and used as justification for further destruction of freedom and civil liberties. Any organized resistance to abuses is portrayed as the visible peak of an underground diabolical plot to overthrow the state and deliver the nation into the hands of foreign enemies.
Holy shit! Are you guys calling Barry's America a police state?
Buy what we tell you to buy or pay fines (or even jail). That is Barry's America. Gotta pass it to find out what's in it! (one of the most tyrannical, and corrupt statements in our nation's history from Pelosi).
There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site
