Quoting: thinkingoutsidetherhombus It's me, the rookie...I forgot to sign in. I'm not freaking out and I know that this stuff has been gradually building for a very long time. I honestly just wanted to know if that's how you felt because I feel very differently. Maybe it's naive, but I will always think that some things are worth fighting for, even if it's in very small ways like waking the people around you up to reality or preparing as best you can for your family's safety if things get really bad. Maybe things really are on an unchangeable trajectory, but it's not in my nature to go quietly and make it too easy for them. Do you really think you're slowing them down at ALL? You give power to what you fight. Ponder on that for a minute...let it stew for a while, and always remember that grasshopper, for it is a FACT. "You give power to what you fight." That, my friends, is some scary propaganda. Who do you work for, anyway? Any run of the mill jackass knows that...how old are you 12? Touchy, touchy. Okay, so lubing up and bending over is better? Or is holding hands and singing Kumbaya more your speed? I need to know, oh wise one, what's your big plan? I don't know where you get your delusions, laser brain. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1298661 United States 12/14/2011 01:42 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Discreetly hidden in the 682 pages of this Act (NDAA), you will discover under the title 'Detainee Matters' in §1031 and §1032, Congress has effectively given the Department of Defense the express power to take civilians into military custody and to indefinitely detain people they suspect of terrorism activities with absolutely no charges or trial whatsoever. People in the Arab world have risen up and toppled governments to rid themselves of this very sort of power Congress is handing to the military. This makes a mockery of all those who fought and died in Iraq and Afghanistan under the pretense we are restoring their freedom. Who will invade the USA to liberate us? This has come at the PRECISE time we face civil unrest because of a collapse in the financial system. Instead of rolling up the sleeves and fixing this mess, we are setting the stage for Marshall Law. [link to armstrongeconomics.files.wordpress.com] |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 7067987 right. if they want to incite the public so bad, why not have cops and military drive around throwing pies in our faces. but i think it's to incite just those that the pharma and tv and frequency mind control stuff isn't working on. then it will be easy to cull the obedient ones, even the police and military, just like night of the long knives, when hitler had his SS kill the brown pants. That's the point, they're not inciting anybody. How long has martial law been on the books? A couple hundred years? Why are we freaking out now? You don't really expect them to honor the constitution if total rebellion breaks out do you? Of course they wouldn't and neither would you. I've tried making a similar point, but it seems to fall on the deaf ears. Thing is - if they really wanted to "round us up," they'll do it regardless of NDAA/1867 being passed, etc. Not that we should just be okay with letting this go through Congress and on to the White House and then into law. It's just that TPTB will do what they want regardless of the law. They always have. Are you telling people they should just give up and accept the recent pieces of anti-freedom legislation without a fight? I'm not being an ass, I'm just really curious if that's how you feel... Not at all. I'm very upset about this legislation going through Congress and, inevitably I'm sure, into law. Notice that in my post I said: "Not that we should just be okay with letting this go through Congress and on to the White House and then into law." My only point is that if and when TPTB decided to make a move that big they'd do it regardless of what laws are currently on the books. |
