If you live in the United States of America, you live in a giant prison where liberty and freedom are slowly being strangled to death. In this country, the control freaks that run things are obsessed with watching, tracking, monitoring and recording virtually everything that we do. Nothing is private anymore. Everything that you do on the Internet is being monitored. All of your phone calls are being monitored. In fact, if law enforcement authorities suspect that you have done something wrong, they will use your cell phone microphone to listen to you even when you think your cell phone is turned off. In many areas of the country, when you get into your car automated license plate readers track you wherever you go, and in many major cities when you are walking on the streets a vast network of security cameras and "smart street lights" are constantly watching you and listening to whatever you say. The TSA is setting up "internal checkpoints" all over the nation, Homeland Security is encouraging all of us to report any "suspicious activity" that our neighbors are involved in and the federal government is rapidly developing "pre-crime" technology that will flag us as "potential terrorists" if we display any signs of nervousness. If you are flagged as a "potential terrorist", the U.S. military can arrest you and detain you for the rest of your life without ever having to charge you with anything. Yes, the United States of America is rapidly being turned into a "Big Brother" prison grid, and most Americans are happily going along with it.
The sad thing is that this used to be "the land of the free and the home of the brave".
So what in the world happened?
A fundamental shift in our culture has taken place. The American people have eagerly given up huge chunks of liberty and freedom in exchange for vague promises of increased security.
Our country is now run by total control freaks and paranoia has become standard operating procedure.
We were told that the terrorists hate our liberties and our freedoms, and that we needed to fight the terrorists so that we could keep our liberties and our freedoms.
But instead, the government keeps taking away all of our liberties and our freedoms.
How in the world does that make any sense?
Have the terrorists won?
As a country, we have moved so far in the direction of communist China, the USSR and Nazi Germany that it is almost impossible to believe.
Yes, turning the United States of America into a giant prison may make us all slightly safer, but what kind of life is this?
Do we want to be dead while we are still alive?
Is this the price that we want to pay in order to feel slightly safer?
Where are the millions of Americans that still yearn to breathe free air?
America is supposed to be a land teeming with people thirsting for independence. For example, "Live Free or Die" is supposedly the official motto of the state of New Hampshire.
But instead, the motto of most Americans seems to be "live scared and die cowering".
We don't have to live like this.
Yes, bad things are always going to happen. No amount of security is ever going to be able to keep us 100% safe.
We need to remember that a very high price was paid for our liberty and we should not give it up so easily.
As one very famous American once said, when we give up liberty for security we deserve neither.
The following are 30 signs that the United States of America is being turned into a giant prison....
#1 A new bill that is going through the U.S. Senate would allow the U.S. military to arrest American citizens and hold them indefinitely without trial. This new law was recently discussed in an article posted on the website of the New American....
In what may be a tale too bizarre to be believed by millions of Americans, the U.S. Senate appears ready to pass a bill that will designate the entire earth, including the United States and its territories, one all-encompassing “battlefield” in the global “war on terror” and authorize the detention of Americans suspected of terrorist ties indefinitely and without trial or even charges being filed that would necessitate a trial.
U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham is a big supporter of the bill, and he says that it would "basically say in law for the first time that the homeland is part of the battlefield".
According to the PPJ Gazette, the following are three things that this new law would do....
1) Explicitly authorize the federal government to indefinitely imprison without charge or trial American citizens and others picked up inside and outside the United States;
(2) Mandate military detention of some civilians who would otherwise be outside of military control, including civilians picked up within the United States itself; and
(3) Transfer to the Department of Defense core prosecutorial, investigative, law enforcement, penal, and custodial authority and responsibility now held by the Department of Justice.
#2 U.S. Senator Joe Lieberman is asking Google to install a "terrorist button" on all Blogger.com blogs so that readers can easily flag "terrorist content" for authorities.
#3 Most Americans have no idea how sophisticated the "Big Brother" prison grid has become. For example, in Washington D.C. the movements of every single car are tracked using automated license plate readers (ALPRs). The following comes from a recent Washington Post article....
More than 250 cameras in the District and its suburbs scan license plates in real time, helping police pinpoint stolen cars and fleeing killers. But the program quietly has expanded beyond what anyone had imagined even a few years ago.
With virtually no public debate, police agencies have begun storing the information from the cameras, building databases that document the travels of millions of vehicles.
Nowhere is that more prevalent than in the District, which has more than one plate-reader per square mile, the highest concentration in the nation. Police in the Washington suburbs have dozens of them as well, and local agencies plan to add many more in coming months, creating a comprehensive dragnet that will include all the approaches into the District.
#4 In some American schools, RFID chips are now being used to monitor the attendance and movements of children while they are at school. The following is how one article recently described a program that has just been instituted at a preschool in California....
Upon arriving in the morning, according to the Associated Press, each student at the CCC-George Miller preschool will don a jersey with a stitched in RFID chip. As the kids go about the business of learning, sensors in the school will record their movements, collecting attendance for both classes and meals. Officials from the school have claimed they're only recording information they're required to provide while receiving federal funds for their Headstart program.
#5 Increasingly, incidents of misbehavior at many U.S. schools are being treated as very serious crimes. For example, when a little girl kissed a little boy at one Florida elementary school recently, it was considered to be a "possible sex crime" and the police were called out.
#6 But what happened to one very young student in Stockton, California earlier this year was even worse....
Earlier this year, a Stockton student was handcuffed with zip ties on his hands and feet, forced to go to the hospital for a psychiatric evaluation and was charged with battery on a police officer. That student was 5 years old.
#7 In the United States today, police are trained to respond to even the smallest crimes with extreme physical force. For example, one grandfather in Arizona was recently filmed laying unconscious in a pool of his own blood after police rammed his head into the flood inside a Wal-Mart on Black Friday night. It was thought that he was shoplifting, but it turns out that he says that he was just trying to tuck a video game away so other crazed shoppers would not grab it out of his hands.
#8 Did you know that the government actually sets up fake cell phone towers that can intercept your cell phone calls? The following is how a recent Wired article described these "stingrays"....
You make a call on your cellphone thinking the only thing standing between you and the recipient of your call is your carrier’s cellphone tower. In fact, that tower your phone is connecting to just might be a boobytrap set up by law enforcement to ensnare your phone signals and maybe even the content of your calls.
So-called stingrays are one of the new high-tech tools that authorities are using to track and identify you. The devices, about the size of a suitcase, spoof a legitimate cellphone tower in order to trick nearby cellphones and other wireless communication devices into connecting to the tower, as they would to a real cellphone tower.
The government maintains that the stingrays don’t violate Fourth Amendment rights, since Americans don’t have a legitimate expectation of privacy for data sent from their mobile phones and other wireless devices to a cell tower.
#9 U.S. border agents are allowed by law to search any laptop being brought into the United States without even needing any reason to do so.
#10 In the United States of America, everyone is a "potential terrorist". According to FBI Director Robert Mueller, "homegrown terrorists" represent as big a threat to American national security as al-Qaeda does.
#11 Most Americans are not that concerned about the Patriot Act, but that might change if they understood that the federal government has a "secret interpretation" of what the Patriot Act really means. U.S. Senator Ron Wyden says that the U.S. government interprets the Patriot Act much more "broadly" than the general public does....
"We’re getting to a gap between what the public thinks the law says and what the American government secretly thinks the law says."
#12 The FBI is now admittedly recording Internet talk radio programs all over the United States. The following comes from a recent article by Mark Weaver of WMAL.com....
If you call a radio talk show and get on the air, you might be recorded by the FBI.
The FBI has awarded a $524,927 contract to a Virginia company to record as much radio news and talk programming as it can find on the Internet.
The FBI says it is not playing big brother by policing the airwaves, but rather seeking access to what airs as potential evidence.
#13 The federal government has decided that what you and I share with one another on Facebook and on Twitter could be a threat to national security. According to a recent Associated Press article, the Department of Homeland Security will soon be "gleaning information from sites such as Twitter and Facebook for law enforcement purposes".
#14 What you say on your cell phone is never private. The truth is that that the FBI can demand to see your cell phone data whenever it wants. In addition, according to CNET News the FBI can remotely activate the microphone on your cell phone and listen to whatever you are saying....
The FBI appears to have begun using a novel form of electronic surveillance in criminal investigations: remotely activating a mobile phone's microphone and using it to eavesdrop on nearby conversations.
The technique is called a "roving bug," and was approved by top U.S. Department of Justice officials for use against members of a New York organized crime family who were wary of conventional surveillance techniques such as tailing a suspect or wiretapping him.
#15 In some areas of the country, law enforcement authorities are pulling data out of cell phones for no reason whatsoever. According to the ACLU, state police in Michigan are now using "extraction devices" to download data from the cell phones of motorists that they pull over. This is taking place even if the motorists that are pulled over are not accused of doing anything wrong.
The following is how a recent article on CNET News described the capabilities of these "extraction devices"....
The devices, sold by a company called Cellebrite, can download text messages, photos, video, and even GPS data from most brands of cell phones. The handheld machines have various interfaces to work with different models and can even bypass security passwords and access some information.
#16 The federal government has become so paranoid that they have been putting GPS tracking devices on the vehicles of thousands of people that have not even been charged with committing any crimes. The following is a short excerpt from a recent Wired magazine article about this issue....
The 25-year-old resident of San Jose, California, says he found the first one about three weeks ago on his Volvo SUV while visiting his mother in Modesto, about 80 miles northeast of San Jose. After contacting Wired and allowing a photographer to snap pictures of the device, it was swapped out and replaced with a second tracking device. A witness also reported seeing a strange man looking beneath the vehicle of the young man’s girlfriend while her car was parked at work, suggesting that a tracking device may have been retrieved from her car.
Then things got really weird when police showed up during a Wired interview with the man.
The young man, who asked to be identified only as Greg, is one among an increasing number of U.S. citizens who are finding themselves tracked with the high-tech devices.
The Justice Department has said that law enforcement agents employ GPS as a crime-fighting tool with “great frequency,” and GPS retailers have told Wired that they’ve sold thousands of the devices to the feds.
#17 New high-tech street lights that are being funded by the federal government and that are being installed all over the nation can also be used as surveillance cameras, can be used by the DHS to make "security announcements" and can even be used to record personal conversations. The following is from a recent article by Paul Joseph Watson for Infowars.com....
Federally-funded high-tech street lights now being installed in American cities are not only set to aid the DHS in making “security announcements” and acting as talking surveillance cameras, they are also capable of “recording conversations,” bringing the potential privacy threat posed by ‘Intellistreets’ to a whole new level.
#18 If you choose to protest in the streets of America today, there is a good chance that you will be brutalized. All over the United States law enforcement authorities have been spraying pepper spray directly into the faces of unarmed protesters in recent weeks.
#19 In many areas of the United States today, you will be arrested if you do not produce proper identification for the police. In the old days, "your papers please" was a phrase that was used to use to mock the tyranny of Nazi Germany. But now all of us are being required to be able to produce "our papers" for law enforcement authorities at any time. For example, a 21-year-old college student named Samantha Zucker was recently arrested and put in a New York City jail for 36 hours just because she could not produce any identification for police.
#20 According to blogger Alexander Higgins, students in kindergarten and the 1st grade in the state of New Jersey are now required by law to participate "in monthly anti-terrorism drills". The following is an excerpt from a letter that he recently received from the school where his child attends....
Each month a school must conduct one fire drill and one security drill which may be a lockdown, bomb threat, evacuation, active shooter, or shelter-in place drill. All schools are now required by law to implement this procedure.
So who in the world ever decided that it would be a good idea for 1st grade students to endure "lockdown" and "active shooter" drills?
To get an idea of what these kinds of drills are like, just check out this video.
#21 With all of the other problems that we are having all over the nation, you would think that authorities would not be too concerned about little kids that are trying to sell cups of lemonade. But sadly, over the past year police have been sent in to shut down lemonade stands run by children all over the United States.
#22 The federal government has decided to invest a significant amount of time, money and energy raiding organic farms. The following example comes from Natural News....
It is the latest case of extreme government food tyranny, and one that is sure to have you reeling in anger and disgust. Health department officials recently conducted a raid of Quail Hollow Farm, an organic community supported agriculture (CSA) farm in southern Nevada, during its special "farm to fork" picnic dinner put on for guests -- and the agent who arrived on the scene ordered that all the fresh, local produce and pasture-based meat that was intended for the meal be destroyed with bleach.
#23 It is an absolute disgrace that all of us (including grandmothers and young children) must either go through body scanners that reveal the intimate details of our naked bodies or endure "enhanced pat-downs" during which our genitals will be touched before we are allowed to get on an airplane.
It is also an absolute disgrace that the American people are putting up with this.
#24 Invasive TSA security techniques are not just for airports anymore. Now, TSA "VIPR teams" are actively conducting random inspections at bus stations and on interstate highways all over the United States. For example, the following comes from a local news report down in Tennessee....
You're probably used to seeing TSA's signature blue uniforms at the airport, but now agents are hitting the interstates to fight terrorism with Visible Intermodal Prevention and Response (VIPR).
"Where is a terrorist more apt to be found? Not these days on an airplane more likely on the interstate," said Tennessee Department of Safety & Homeland Security Commissioner Bill Gibbons.
Tuesday Tennessee was first to deploy VIPR simultaneously at five weigh stations and two bus stations across the state.
TSA "VIPR teams" now conduct approximately 8,000 "unannounced security screenings" a year at subway stations, bus terminals, ports and highway rest stops.
#25 More than a million hotel television sets all over America are now broadcasting propaganda messages from the Department of Homeland Security promoting the "See Something, Say Something" campaign. In essence, the federal government wants all of us to become "informants" and to start spying on one another constantly. The following comes from an article posted by USA Today....
Starting today, the welcome screens on 1.2 million hotel television sets in Marriott, Hilton, Sheraton, Holiday Inn and other hotels in the USA will show a short public service announcement from DHS. The 15-second spot encourages viewers to be vigilant and call law enforcement if they witness something suspicious during their travels.
#26 Certain "types" of American citizens are being labeled as potential threats in official U.S. government documents. An unclassified Department of Homeland Security report published a couple years ago entitled "Right-wing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment" claims that a belief in Bible prophecy "could motivate extremist individuals and groups to stockpile food, ammunition and weapons." The report goes on to state that such people are potentially dangerous.
#27 Back on February 20, 2009, the State of Missouri issued a report entitled "MIAC Strategic Report: The Modern Militia Movement". That report warned that the following types of people may be potential terrorists....
*anti-abortion activists
*those that are against illegal immigration
*those that consider "the New World Order" to be a threat
*those that have a negative view of the United Nations
#28 As I have written about previously, a very disturbing document that Oath Keepers has obtained shows that the FBI is now instructing store owners to report many new forms of "suspicious activity" to them. According to the document, "suspicious activity" now includes the following....
*paying with cash
*missing a hand or fingers
*"strange odors"
*making "extreme religious statements"
*"radical theology"
*purchasing weatherproofed ammunition or match containers
*purchasing meals ready to eat
*purchasing night vision devices, night flashlights or gas masks
Do any of those "signs of suspicious activity" apply to you?
#29 Soon you may get labeled as a "potential terrorist" if you are just feeling a little nervous. A new "pre-crime" technology system that is currently being tested by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security will soon be in use all over the nation. It is called "Future Attribute Screening Technology" (FAST), and it is very frightening. The following description of this new program comes from an article in the London Telegraph....
Using cameras and sensors the "pre-crime" system measures and tracks changes in a person's body movements, the pitch of their voice and the rhythm of their speech.
It also monitors breathing patterns, eye movements, blink rate and alterations in body heat, which are used to assess an individual's likelihood to commit a crime.
The Future Attribute Screening Technology (FAST) programme is already being tested on a group of government employees who volunteered to act as guinea pigs.
#30 The truth is that nobody puts more people into prison than America does. The United States has the highest incarceration rate in the world and the largest total prison population on the entire globe.
To read about some of the crazy things that the control freaks running things have planned for the future, just check out this article by Natural News: "10 outlandish things the 'scientific' controllers have in mind for you in the near future".
Once again, despite all of this outrageous "security", it is inevitable that a lot of really bad things are going to happen in the United States in the years ahead.
When there are incidents of violence, it is also inevitable that there will be calls for even more "Big Brother" security measures.
We are going to be caught in a never ending spiral of tyranny where the "solution" is always even tighter security.
Eventually, we will have lost all of our liberties and freedoms, and we will probably be even less safe than we are today.
Do not be deceived. We could put a soldier on every corner, a video camera in every room of every home and an RFID chip in every citizen but that would not make us "safe".
Every single lawmaker that is backing these laws which strip our liberties and freedoms away deserves to be voted out of office.
If you love the United States of America, please stand up and say something while you still can.
Please use this article and other articles like it as tools. Share them with your friends and your family. If we can get enough people to wake up, perhaps there is still enough time to turn the direction of this country around.
Will the final chapters of the history of the United States of America be mentioned in the same breath as communist China, the USSR and Nazi Germany, or will the final chapters of the history of the United States of America be the greatest chapters of all?
The choice, America, is up to you.
Furthermore…what’s all this God fearing or God loving rubbish all about? The US isn’t a Theocracy is it? You have a clear separation of church and state? you’re a democratic republic governed by the people you elect to represent you, right? What has god got to do with anything?
Don’t be silly. They’ll come for YOU next.
unbelievable,I am an immigrant from uk This country has been very good to me and I love it. If citizens dont like the way it is being run get out and vote for what you want.
Go home, statist dupe. We don’t need you here.
The best thing we have going for us is that the US is broke and the world is on to our printing of funny money to finance our Soviet style state. I welcome the day we default and our country collapses. Amerika has failed. The lessons are clear: democracy will fail wwhen it is polluted by career politicians and campaign donations that are nearly unlimited. Hopefully, this happens sooner than later. We can start over and be free. F Amerika.
If the government were so controlling, this would be censored, rather than free to read.
We have already lost that right.
The United States has already granted itself the right to steal worldwide domain names, hijacking them and redirecting them to servers they see fit.
Not to mention, our constitutional right to gather in public and protest.. How is that dealt with? With Tazers, tear gas, and rubber bullets.
YOU DONT HAVE THE RIGHT TO PUBLICALLY OBJECT!
You speak out.. They WILL kill you in the streets.
ANYONE who has any problem seeing how truly out of control our current system is, are they themselves are a prime example of how easily the minds of americans are being manipulated into thinking that all of this is for their own good, or that things are really not that bad, or that POLICE should have the right to kill innocent unarmed people in the streets for simply saying.. WE DONT LIKE THIS! STOP THIS..
Oh you delusional delusional people..
But honestly.. at this point..
Kick back, enjoy a drink.. and watch this bastard bitch of a contry burn to the ground.
Because there is no avoiding it. They have destroyed the economy to the point its on life support waiting to die.. They say its recovering.. But its just more lies to keep the people from rioting.. There is no saving it.. The US$ will be worthless, everyone will lose everything that they have worked their entire lives to save for, while the rulers do as they have always done in times of great depression.. swoop in and buy it all up and once again we’re all back to being slaves.
Learn some “real” history… Its repeating… as it has always done..
The real delusion here is the notion.. That there has EVER been anything except two types of people..
Kings and Slaves.
You should listen to this one.
Big 10-4, Rubber Duck.
moron…who do you think wrote this?
What do you think the SOPA bill is all about?
Don’t be naive.
Thank-you Atwas911. The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist. The New World Order is right on schedule down to the smallest detail. We have nothing but power in numbers. It is our only means of preserving what is left of this country. Did you think the powers that be were going to perpetuate their plan is a light that you could plainly see? No. But make no mistake, it is happening and the more of the baby boomers or “old” people who fall off of the contributing conveyer belt, the easier it will be to control the rest of the population. Keep watching American Idol and concerning yourself with what the Kardashians are wearing and one day you will find yourself sitting in a FEMA camp wondering how this could happen to you.
R Minnick, please don’t bring the great talking jebba and all of his super hero friends like “the devil” into this..
Religion is a sickness, a mental illness, the only one thing in this world that has caused more damage that the corrupt politicians ever have..
Of course..if these representatives want to hunt down domestic terrorists, why don’t they look into a mirror?……
For the love of ****************, I’m sick of all this fear-mongering ************* being fed to me. The people in the Government aren’t animals, I’m sure they are totally capable of listening to reason.
I think you are missing the point, you must be blind. I don’t think God had anything to do with it. The Gov is going to make you their bitch. You are a bunch of sheep being lead to slaughter. Why are you people so ************** blind?!? Wake up, look around, do some ************ research.
I am sure that is what they said in KGB Russia and Nazi Germany……….
Read history lately??
Perhaps our own military should take part in the revloution? They all swore an oath to defend the Constitution from all enemies, both foreign and domestic. They did NOT, however swear an oath to defend the Government.
@ Helen
The problem is our responsibility to vote is just an illusion of control over the govt. Read up on gerrymander, the electoral college and maybe research a little bit the power and money it takes to run even a state election campaign. Honest, just people will never run our country because to get to the top here, you kind of have to be evil…
Once again, don’t trust the gov, manipulated by lobbies.
There is another way to avoid all that shit. Why owning a cel, a car?
Be wise at home too, with your Internet connection.
Everything can be logged.
Have you heard about echelon?
And no, this is not a paranoia crisis.
Do you really think those guyz, elected, are working for us!
Stay free!
Ron Paul is also a puppet…he is calling for a new monetary system…he has no credibility with me…hmmmm good cop…bad cop…dismantle the fed government and let each state govern itself
Pretty intense stuff!
MORE THAN INTENSE …THANK GOD IM IN SOUTH AFRICA I THOUGHT ABOUT IMMEGRATING YO AMERICA KEEP IT …
HI! i was just exactly what part of the new bills gives them the right to arrest us unlawfully. I need to know before i start sharing with people. lol, thanks. : ]
The writer thinks maybe it is because of the threat of terrorist where i see it because of ignorance and denial on the part of millions of Americans. America bought the governments story of 9/11. Bush said don’t question 9/11? When bush said you are either with us or the terrorist millions of good little sheepe went right along and when bush called for war with Iraq there was the sheep again knowing all the while it was based on lies.Bombing of Kuwait same story. the Kuwaiti Ambassador’s daughter comes on T V and start crying. Lying by saying that the Revolutionary Guard was taking babies out of incubators and leaving them on the ground to die. The attack on the people of Libya and killing of some of Gaddifi’s family members.’ It is fortunate for the governments that the masses don’t think.” Adolf Hitler! Over two million innocent men, women and children are dead because of the ignorance and denial of millions of Americans, Another 500,000 dead from disease and starvation due to sanctions imposed on Iraq by the US before the Gulf war.500,000 babies born deformed, as reported by the WHO, because of the use of depleted uranium by the US military.How many more will either die or be born deformed because of all the depleted uranium dust covering Iraq? the US did the same to South and North Vietnam with agent orange although agent orange effects were mild in comparison to depleted uranium which has a half life of 4.5 billion years.
A scientific dictatorship cannot occur without control of all information … those avenues for control are namely Google, Facebook and Twitter. If 30% of people stopped using these sites … information control is lost and the scientific dictatorship cannot survive.
The issue is not so much that the Government is doing it, but more that it is being pushed to happen by those people who are so frightended to live thier lives that they want it to happen. If you see “suspicious activity”, instead of getting freaked out, think for a minute about what you actually saw. Is the guy sweating because he is going to blow himself up on an airplane?…or is he wearing too warm of a jacket or worried about who is going to grope him in the search? Is the guy speeding to get to a terrorist meeting, or is he rushing to the hospital because his wife is having a baby? Everybody just needs to CALM THE ************* DOWN!
The frog is almost done….nice and cripsy!
I agree that under normal circumstances people shouldn’t be monitored, but we cannot ignore the fact that these are not normal circumstances.
America has for a long period of time created a mindset of entitlement, wherein many people feel that they should have many things provided for them. The problem is that many people never give anything at all back to the system that they take and expect so much from. Then there are some that do contribute a little here and there in one form or another but take much more of an amount than what they ever contributed. Then there are some that contribute a very large amount that end up getting very little or nothing from the system.
I mention these things because the government and the people have equally created the problems that we find in our world today. Fixing the government will not work unless we also fix the attitudes of the people as well.
How could this be done:
(1) Hold people accountable for their actions, stop shifting blame to someone or something else.
(2) Change the educational system to teach ethics, morals, self reliance, teamwork, how to balance a checkbook and especially work ethic. Teach them that our country is only as strong as the people who make up the population of that country. Teach them about voting and how their vote actually effects every aspect of their lives, get it right. Dont vote for higher taxes, vote for more efficiency before ever voting for higher taxes.
(3) Change and enforce entitlement programs so that they are temporary, and encourage personal accountability and responsibility, and punish anything less. Manditory suprise drug, alcohol and cigarette testing failure should warrant immediate and perminant termination as well as other penalties. No more using the food stamps to feed the dogs or to create a bunch of unhealthy fat kids.
(4) Start the military draft for everyone after graduation from high school, requiring at least an 8 week military training course.
(5) Encourage business creation and sucess by abolishing the current tax codes and enacting a flat sales tax, no income tax, dont punish people for working hard.
(6) Everyone should pay local taxes that fund their local school system, not just the property owners and farmers. And the teachers shouldn’t be protected by powerful unions, and the local school board should not be allowed to practice nepatism.
(7) Prosecute and jail any political leader who puts their own political career over the long term survival and enhancement of America and the people that CONTRIBUTE to this countrys success.
(8) Allow controlled government monitoring to expose those that wish to undermine America and our free way of life.
NICE SITE BY THE WAY !!!
And how scary and terrorist: officers and soldiers swearing to uphold and keep their oath to the Constitution? Scary indeed. Pure psychos in need of reconditioning. Where do they get off keeping their solemn sworn oath to the Constitution? Nobody in Congress does (except a couple crackpot Pauls). No one in the Pentagon does. No one in the White House does. No one in the Supreme Court does. It’s these wacko “Oath Keepers” that are the real danger. Let us hope our Homeland Security keeps the Fatherland safe from such violent and dangerous individuals. “Give me television and give me text!”

DO NOT ASK FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS….IT TOLLS FOR THEE……………..THEM…..
IRT to street lights- the government now is installing street lights with iris scanners that can identify people from about 30 feet away. It only needs a second to recognize you and sunglasses won’t block them.
It doesn’t bother me so much that the government is tracking everyone. What bothers me is that they’re wasting billions of dollars of taxpayer dollars to do it!
Ok so someone who knows alot about this stuff.. when do you think we are going to start seeing some super scary stuff? Such as Agenda 21 times 3? 20019? 2050? What do you think will happen in 2050? I’ll be 60..
First they massacred Branch Davidian in Waco Siege,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a Davidian.
Then they created OKC bombing, tried to get a Patriot act,
and I didn’t speak out because I didn’t want to offend the Feds.
Then they created 911 attack to get the Patriot Act and war,
and I didn’t speak out because I am not a muslim.
Now they come for US citizens with military Authorization Act,
and I didn’t speak out because I am not a terrorist.
Then when they prison you as a terrorist,
and there is no law to protect you because you have given up all your civil rights already.
No – you don’t vote these freaks out – you KICK them out. This is the type of thing that impeachment and recall was made possible for. You need to reject their actions, or the actions go through and stand for the next dweeb to use. The continued idea of “vote them out” is stupidity that is allowing these draconian actions to continue and thrive.
As far as losing rights — they are gone. Suck it up and act accordingly.
I have been trying to find a site like this during the month of October there were several occupy rallies in the USA does anyone find it disturbing that we as a nation watch other countries have “organized rallies” on the news and there police shoot drag beat and mace them and in some cases kill there people and we criticise that country yet we organize for peacefull purposes and our government blacked out almost all of the footage of the use of “less than lethal” and beatings of our own people. It just goes to show how much power the people have in the USA if we organize the press gets a gag order and is not alowed to air footage or the sponsors will pull there adds we dident see half of what happend to the very curagious people that spent days rallying to protect the constitutional right of free speech in public areas throughout the USA. If you would like to see some of the footage go to cop blocker.org this is a very eye opening site
On that last reply it should be cop block.org
This is insanity! Totalitarian state is the name for that.
This is appalling.
[...] do so many of our politicians think that it is a good idea to allow the U.S. military to arrest American citizens on American soil and indefinitely detain [...]
I would like to know who actually wrote the indefinite detention part of the NDAA and why Congress is supporting it.
THX 1138, anyone?
Yes and read the Patriot Acts. Old Fearless leader can put himself in office for life.
can anyone send me info on how to get these articles and new ones from this site sent to my inbox?
Thanks for the chuckle. Nice to know there are still some loony toons out there that keep thses conspiracy theories alive. If the government were as all powerful as you would have us think then things would run a heck of a lot smoother than they do. But, I’m sure you already figured that one out and have decided that the government is deliberatly acting like a bunch of 2-year olds to throw us off the track. Keep the silliness coming, we could all use a good laugh.
