HAS FREEDOM DIED?

(Dec. 16, 2011) — Two things happened recently that got little or no attention in the 24-hour news cycle, and for good reason. These things might seem at first glance to be totally unrelated, but when you look at them in the larger scheme of things they could be absolutely chilling. The focus of my recent op-ed’s has been an attempt to assemble a puzzle or mosaic, and these last two pieces bring the picture into startling clarity.

Just over a month ago Obama was threatening to veto legislation called “The National Defense Authorization Act FY2012 over wording in Section 1032 which effectively gives “authorities” the right to detain and torture American citizens indefinitely, just like those Al Qaeda members in Guantanamo. As Congressman Ron Paul warns,” this should be the biggest news going right now“, and he said the legislation would allow for “literally legalizing martial law“. Paul further warns that,” This step where they can literally detain American citizens and put them away without trial is arrogant, bold and dangerous”.

The White House opposed the legislation until, as Senator Carl Levin told lawmakers, “the administration asked us to remove the language which says that U.S. citizens and lawful residents would not be subject to this section’.

Let me run that by you again. The administration actually asked that language be removed which would exempt U.S citizens and lawful residents from this legislation. Are you kidding me? The administration issued a statement on November 17, saying that the president would veto the bill as it would challenge “the president’s critical authorities to collect intelligence, incapacitate dangerous terrorists and protect the nation”. The de facto president basically demanded authority to indefinitely detain American citizens and the Congress complied!

People won't know what hit them until they end up in a FEMA detainment camp under martial law
because they said something deemed to be "belligerent". This law is completely unconstitutional and I expect supreme court challenges soon.

This law is unconstitutional and should be abolished immediately. It would give the President the power to arrest and lock up any american that disagrees with him, and without charges against them or a trial. This is just like the communist and Nazi Germany. He will start with his civilian police force going door to door collecting all of your guns that they know you have because they have been registering them for years. Then if you resist or god forbid try to defend yourself with a gun you will be shot dead on the spot. Then if you just don't comply they will lock you up forever. Then he will go after the Christians (we are not muslim you know). He will lock us up in camps like Nazi Germany and throw away the key never being charged with a crime or any intention of getting a trial. And this will be okay under this law. Are we in America or some communist country?

I agree with Both Statements above.

There are 73 "re-educational concentration camps" that have been built under Obama with our TAX dollars; just like the jews built camps with their labor.

Lock n Load Men and wait till you see the whites of thier eyes!
