Will it ever get to this?
The US Feral1 Government is getting a little out of hand, you think? But if they can get away with ignoring the US Constitution the way that they have been since 2001 then they will keep right on doing it.
I had hopes for Obama, they are fading. The Tea Party has it wrong but I’ll bet that they now wish that they had never heard of Sarah Palin. The thing is that the economy doesn’t matter if you lose your freedom in the process. Safety and security don’t matter if you lose your freedoms getting them.
CALEA, Patriot Acts I and II, and a whole raft of other things all contribute to the loss of freedom and civil rights. Yes, Handgun Control Inc. is against your freedom. Watch this video and realize why the 2nd Amendment is your sole protection. It is the last barricade against the Totalitarian State of Amerika and even then, it has already been dangerously eroded.
The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it. – Article I, section 9, US Constitution
Already, Americans cannot fly without giving up their 4th and 5th Amendment rights. Arrested, you do not have the right of Habeas Corpus, a constitutionally guaranteed right. They will simply ignore it. You can be arrested without Probable Cause, you can be searched without Probable Cause, you can have all of your money and possessions confiscated without a trial or even Probable Cause2 , that is the Land of the Free?
GW Bush began all of this and Obama has not even begun to try to reverse these things. In fact, he is exacerbating some of them.
- Not a typo. This is a term that I’ve used for the US Federal Gov for a long time. It indicates a rogue government that does not feel that it is contrained from commiting any act that it desires by the will, or lack thereof, of the people. [↩]
- All they have to claim is that they suspect you of trafficking drugs, verbally, no proof required, or even any truth. Even if you get exonerated in a trial, they won’t give any of it back because they don’t have to. That’s the way the law is written. [↩]
