POLICE STATE 2011: 6 year old girl groped then drug tested by TSA

The Militarization of Your Local Police
Sunday, November 13, 2011 Invalid Link Removed
Local law enforcement agencies in the U.S. have increasingly become more militaristic in tactics and look in response to the wars on drugs and terror.

Writing in The Atlantic, Arthur Rizer and Joseph Hartman note “a proliferation in incidents of excessive, military-style force by police S.W.A.T. teams” in recent years as a result of police departments relying more on “black-garbed, body-armored” specialists to carry out “routine domestic police work.” Not that long ago, SWAT units only existed in large cities and were used only in high-risk situations, such as bank robberies as hostage takings. Now they can be found in places as small as Middleburg, Pennsylvania (population: 1,382).

To better deal with potential threats of terrorism, police forces have stocked up on military equipment, “adopted military training, and sought to inculcate a ‘soldier’s mentality’ among their ranks.”

Up until September 11, 2001, the average police officer might have had at his or her disposal a shotgun, maybe even a high-power rifle in addition to their service revolver. Today, it’s become more common to see police armed with assault rifles and dressed in black full-battle uniforms while patrolling airports and other locations. In some cities police arsenals now include bazookas, machine guns and armored vehicles.

Rizer and Hartman do not condemn the use of improved technology to fight crime, but they do point out that the mindset of police is different from the mindset of soldiers. Law enforcement officers are on the streets “to protect and to serve,” and they treat people they apprehend as “suspects.” Soldiers, on the other hand, are trained to view people as either “enemies” or “non-enemies” and to “engage, and destroy the enemies of the United States of America in close combat.”

Retired Seattle police chief Norman Stamper, writing at Invalid Link Removed, claims “there are more than 50,000 police paramilitary raids in the United States each year—more than 130 every day. Virtually all are for prosecution of drug warrants, the vast majority involving marijuana. Many jurisdictions use SWAT teams for execution of every search warrant for drugs.”

Surface-to-air missiles could be used to protect the skies over London during the Olympics, Defence Secretary Philip Hammond said today.
He insisted that “all necessary measures” will be taken to ensure security.​
Mr Hammond told the Commons “appropriate ground to air defences” could be in place if that was recommended by the military.​
The statement came as Metropolitan Police Assistant Commissioner Chris Allison, the officer in charge of policing at the London 2012 Games, said he “did not recognise” suggestions the US is to send 1,000 agents, including 500 FBI, because security will be inadequate.​

DHS-Linked Group Trains Citizens Their “Best Pal” Could Be a Terrorist

Courses funded by organization that produced video suggesting buying gold was a suspicious activity
Paul Joseph Watson
Wednesday, November 16, 2011

American citizens are being trained that their best friend or their closest neighbor could be a terrorist in ‘Community Awareness Program’ classes sponsored by the same DHS-linked non-profit group which was behind the infamous “Recognizing the Eight Signs of Terrorism” video, a PSA that suggested buying gold was a suspicious activity.
Invalid Link Removed

“The face of antiterrorism in Colorado includes a former Washington lobbyist, an ex-Marine from Lakewood whose wife gives him the evil eye when he’s sizing up potential threats at Denver International Airport, and a native New Yorker who refuses to ride on the subway and spends as little time as possible in high-rise buildings,” Invalid Link Removed.

The story is little more than a promotional vehicle for ‘Community Awareness Program’ courses being run out of Lakewood Police Department in Denver, Colorado.

The classes are taught by Diana Woodson, an administrative assistant in the safety, security and facilities department of the Regional Transportation District. Woodson doesn’t just communicate her paranoia, she lives it, telling her students that although she hails from New York, upon her return she refuses to ride the subway or enter skyscrapers.
The most chilling aspect of the course is the fact that Woodson teaches her students that their best friend or closest neighbor could be a terrorist.

“It’s not going to be the person that you think it’s going to be,” said Woodson. “He’s your best neighbor, your best pal. It doesn’t always look like the bad guy; it can be someone unassuming.”
The classes are sponsored by the Invalid Link Removed, a non-profit organization that works closely with state and federal authorities to promote “awareness” of terrorism, most notably in the form of a $6 million dollar museum that includes exhibitions simulating Denver being bombed and has been Invalid Link Removed as an exercise in “fearmongering”.

CELL was also behind the chilling “Recognizing the Eight Signs of Terrorism” video, a PSA starring Denver Broncos quarterback John Elway which encouraged Americans to report suspicious activity that could be an indication of terrorism.
The production was funded by a $30,400 grant from the Department of Homeland Security and made in association with the Colorado Information Analysis Center.

Invalid Link Removed, the video suggests that activity such as buying gold, owning guns, using a watch or binoculars, donating to charity, using the telephone or email to find information, and all manner of mundane behaviors is a sign of potential terrorism. Petty criminal behavior such as theft and trespassing is also flagged as a sign of terrorism. In every instance shown, the suspected terrorist is an American citizen.

The fact that American citizens are being taught by shadowy non-profit groups tied at the hip with Homeland Security that their best friend or closest neighbor could be a terrorist is another illustration of how the terrorists have won.

Thanks to the federal government, we live in a society driven by fear and paranoia, with huge amounts of money being wasted on programs like this as well as other “See Something, Say Something”-style snitch campaigns that do nothing to increase security and everything to increase distrust and agitation, greasing the skids for the state to trample the very liberties we are told the terrorists hate.
In reality, Invalid Link Removed, Americans are equally or more likely to be killed by peanut allergies, accident-causing deer, drowning in bathtubs and bowel disorders than they are terrorists.

Watch the ridiculous “Recognizing the Eight Signs of Terrorism” video below, brought to you by the same organization which is now training Americans that their “best pal” could be a terrorist.

TSA worker in uniform flashes badge, brutally rapes woman

TSA Agents Think They Are Above The Law

Paul Joseph Watson
Tuesday, November 22, 2011


Yet another example of a TSA agent engaging in rampant criminality and believing themselves to be above the law emerged yesterday, when 52-year-old TSA worker Harold Glen Rodman allegedly approached a woman in full uniform before flashing his badge and proceeding to brutally rape and sodomize her.

ABC News Video Clip of incident

Invalid Link Removed

“Police arrested Rodman on Nov. 20. He is charged with aggravated sexual battery, object sexual penetration, forcible sodomy and abduction with intent to defile,” Invalid Link Removed.​
“Police said the victim reported that she and a friend were in the 10500 block of Winfield Loop in Manassas when the suspect approached them. The suspect flashed a badge and sexually assaulted the victim before fleeing on foot, police said.”​
The Transportation Security Administration confirmed that Rodman worked for the agency but refused to say where or in what capacity.​
As we have documented, this certainly not the first time a TSA agent has abused their position of authority to wantonly break the law.​
Earlier this year, a Invalid Link Removed after he posed as a cop by flashing his badge at a woman in an attempt to intimidate her into driving faster.​
This is by no means restricted to two isolated incidents. Every week brings a new TSA horror story. Given the Invalid Link Removed that TSA agents have been caught engaging in both on the job and off-duty, it’s not surprising that the rollout of an army of TSA agents to provide “security” at every level of American society, from Invalid Link Removed to Invalid Link Removed, from highways to Invalid Link Removed, is stoking concerns that the federal agency is set to become the de facto Invalid Link Removed that Barack Obama promised in his pre-election speech.

There’s a whole army of TSA workers who think that because they are given a shiny badge and a blue uniform that makes them above the law and allows them to engage in criminal acts and sexual deviancy. That they think they can get away with intimidating the public into following their every order, even to the point of sexual assault, underscores the mindset of a nation fast sinking into an authoritarian police state.​
What kind of training must the feds be giving TSA agents to produce such a prolific streak of criminality and abuse of power? Or on the other hand is it more to do with the fact that sexual deviants and criminals are attracted to a job that allows them to fondle and abuse women and children?​
Either way, such stories illustrate what an odious and reprehensible agency the TSA has become and why it should be completely abolished, especially considering the fact that these state-hired goons are now roaming bus terminals, train stations and highways. If you think you can avoid this by not flying, think again.​
The fact that scandal and criminal behavior involving TSA agents continually gets swept under the carpet while the establishment media ignores the clear evidence that this is an epidemic of abuse illustrates the reality that the TSA is designed to be an occupying force whose primary role is to oppress and abuse the American people.
 
what are we going to do when they shut down the netz? i got a firepit out back, you speak smoke signals?

Your just going to get attention to yourself doing that and give away your location....homeland security will be at your door pepper spraying your entire body before you even get to say hello and zapping you with porta naked body scanner while they snort coke in the back of the van.

Fear Of TSA Harassment Is Killing Thousands of Americans

Travelers taking to highways are exponentially more at risk

Steve Watson
November 23, 2011

Invalid Link Removed

According to a Invalid Link Removed this week, owing to opposition to the TSA, The Air Transport Association expects 2 percent fewer people will fly this Thanksgiving week compared with last year, while AAA projects a 4 percent increase in automobile travel.

This raises a serious issue – the fact that many thousands more Americans die in road traffic accidents every year than they do in air accidents.

Invalid Link Removed also notes that complaints regarding the TSA’s heavy handed policies and procedures are increasing amongst frequent fliers.

In addition to concerns over pat-downs and radiation-firing body scanners, an increase in waiting times, having to remove clothing and generally unfriendly TSA agents are all contributing factors that are causing more and more Americans to boycott flying and take to their cars.

Although road accident fatalities are decreasing, due to the improvement of safety in vehicles, last year, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, close to 33, 000 people were killed in car accidents in the US. Compare that to the Invalid Link Removed who were killed WORLDWIDE in plane crashes, and the difference is stark.

Timothy Taylor of the Invalid Link Removed has recently noted:
“Researchers have estimated that the 9/11 attacks generated nearly 2,200 additional road traffic deaths in the United States through mid-2003 from a relative increase in driving and reduction in flying resulting from fear of additional terrorist attacks and associated reductions in the convenience of flying.”
“If the new security measures are generating similar, or even smaller, substitutions and the driving risk has grown as hypothesized, the new methods could be contributing to more deaths annually on U.S. roads than have been experienced cumulatively since 9/11 from terrorism against air transportation targets around the world.”

Similar research dovetails with this analysis:
In 2005, Invalid Link Removedfound that because more people drove instead of taking a plane in the three months after 9/11, there were an additional 725 fatalities from car crashes than during the same period in the previous year.
A study by Invalid Link Removed in 2004 concluded that an even higher figure of fatalities were recorded -1,018 more than would have been expected based on earlier trends.

We have previously noted that Invalid Link Removed, drowning in baths and eating peanuts than they do from terrorist attacks. Yet it is the perpetual fear that the Department of Homeland Security continues to instill in people that they are likely to be attacked, in addition to the grossly heavy handed security theatre, that is keeping people off planes and on highways.

The TSA and Homeland Security in general are the biggest scams of the decade. The massive expanse of the surveillance state that has come in the guise of securing the nation is not only killing liberty, but also adding billions onto the national deficit and taking away from programs and departments that are much in need of extra funding.

A new Congressional Report released last week, entitled Invalid Link Removed” concluded that the TSA is a “bloated” and “ineffective” federal agency that is doing nothing to make airports and air travel more secure.

If The Department of Homeland Security was serious about protecting the lives of Americans, it would remove the TSA from the nation’s airports and allow people to fly without the fear of being treated like cattle, being irradiated in next to useless body scanners and being sexually harassed and groped by overly authoritative goons in uniform.
 
This is so hilarious and retarded...costs what?.....some $35,000-$45,000 a year in tax payer money to prison 1 person who is in debt by several grand? Then they can make a nickel an hour (so its at least not considered slavery) filing and booking peoples passports and airline tickets or make license plates behind bars so they can pay their debt off while we pay all that money to keep them behind bars? What a joke....yet though its just corporations feeding the corporate prisons more tax payer money.

THE RETURN OF DEBTORS PRISONS: Collection Agencies Now Want Deadbeats Arrested


As if life wasn't already tense enough for Americans who can't pay their debts, collection agencies are now taking advantage of archaic state laws to have Invalid Link Removed
More than one-third of US states allow debtors to be arrested and jailed, Invalid Link Removed.
Judges typically grant arrest warrants when the debtors have failed to show up for court dates or failed to make court-ordered payments.
Of course, the reason debtors have failed to make court-ordered payments is often the same reason they didn't pay their debts in the first place: They don't have any money.
In September, a 53 year-old woman named Vivian Joy was stopped for a broken tail-light in Champaign, Illinois. And then, because the cops discovered that she still hadn't paid $2,200 to a collection agency, she was cuffed and carted off to jail.
Joy's excuse?
She doesn't have any money.
Jailing debtors for not paying their debts is apparently especially popular in Illinois.
(This practice, needless to say, is preposterous. If people can't pay their debts and have no prospect of being able to pay their debts, they should declare bankruptcy. And the debts should be written off. Companies don't go to jail when they default. Neither should people.)

Police Brutally shattered Grandpa's face For Shopping


Grandpa Arrested After Black Friday Brawl, witnesses say he was just trying to get his grandson out of harm's way.

BUCKEYE, Ariz. - Police swarmed a Buckeye Walmart Thursday night after a man inside was tackled to the ground during a rush to grab video games -- and there are differing stories about what led up to his arrest.

Some witnesses told Fox 10 that the actions taken by a police officer during a fight at that Walmart were wrong, but Buckeye police have a different story.

Witnesses told Fox 10 Friday morning that a grandfather was with his grandson and wife looking at video games. They said that people were tearing the box of games apart, trying to get to the videos, and a woman ended up getting punched.

"You literally would have thought there was a cure for cancer in this box, people were going insane," said witness Skylar Stone, who saw the whole thing and called it 'uncalled for.'

The grandson was trampled on in all the mayhem -- even cutting his lip. His grandpa put the game in his waistband so that he could lift the boy out of the crowd, according to some witnesses.

Witnesses said that's when a police officer grabbed the man and slammed him to the ground – possibly thinking he was stealing the game.

On a cell phone video taken at the Walmart, blood can be seen streaming from the grandfather's face. But witnesses said police didn't believe anything was wrong until they turned the man over.

“They grabbed the guy, body planted him into the ground -- face shatters on concrete. That's a hard concrete floor inside Walmart.

“All of a sudden, you see this little boy run up and wailing and yelling, ‘Grandpa, Grandpa,’ and crying his eyes out,” Stone said.

Witnesses said the man had about $600 worth of electronics that he was purchasing and wasn't trying to steal anything. They said he was just trying to get his grandson out of harm's way.

But on Friday afternoon, Buckeye police told Fox 10 a vastly different story.

The Buckeye police chief said the officer’s actions were justified and that the cell phone video of the fight showed only the very end of it. They said the Walmart's surveillance cameras did not capture the beginning of the fight.

Police said when the officer asked Jerald Newman about the video game he put in his waistband, he began flailing his arms.

"As the officer put handcuffs on the suspect, he resisted arrest, flailing his arms and pulling away from the officer backing up," said Buckeye Police Asst. Chief Larry Hall.

A leg sweep was used on Newman, who hit his head when he fell and began bleeding, police said.

"There's nothing on the surface to indicate our officer did anything inappropriate. It's difficult to arrest an individual because you don't know how that individual is going to react."

Because force was used in the arrest, the incident is under investigation. The officer involved is still on the job.

54-year-old Jerald Newman was arrested after he was treated at a local hospital. He faces charges of resisting arrest and shoplifting.

Senate Moves To Allow Military To Intern Americans Without Trial

NDAA detention provision would turn America into a “battlefield”

Paul Joseph Watson
Saturday, November 26, 2011

The Senate is set to vote on a bill next week that would define the whole of the United States as a “battlefield” and allow the U.S. Military to arrest American citizens in their own back yard without charge or trial.


Invalid Link Removed



“The Senate is going to vote on whether Congress will give this president—and every future president — the power to order the military to pick up and imprison without charge or trial civilians anywhere in the world. The power is so broad that even U.S. citizens could be swept up by the military and the military could be used far from any battlefield, even within the United States itself,” writes Invalid Link Removed
Under the ‘worldwide indefinite detention without charge or trial’ provision of S.1867, the Invalid Link Removed, which is set to be up for a vote on the Senate floor Monday, the legislation will “basically say in law for the first time that the homeland is part of the battlefield,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), who supports the bill.

The bill was drafted in secret by Senators Carl Levin (D-Mich.) and John McCain (R-Ariz.), before being passed in a closed-door committee meeting without any kind of hearing. The language appears in sections 1031 and 1032 of the NDAA bill.

“I would also point out that these provisions raise serious questions as to who we are as a society and what our Constitution seeks to protect,” Invalid Link Removed. One section of these provisions, section 1031, would be interpreted as allowing the military to capture and indefinitely detain American citizens on U.S. soil. Section 1031 essentially repeals the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 by authorizing the U.S. military to perform law enforcement functions on American soil. That alone should alarm my colleagues on both sides of the aisle, but there are other problems with these provisions that must be resolved.”

This means Americans could be declared domestic terrorists and thrown in a military brig with no recourse whatsoever. Given that the Invalid Link Removedsuch as buying gold, owning guns, using a watch or binoculars, donating to charity, using the telephone or email to find information, using cash, and all manner of mundane behaviors as potential indicators of domestic terrorism, such a provision would be wide open to abuse.

“American citizens and people picked up on American or Canadian or British streets being sent to military prisons indefinitely without even being charged with a crime. Really? Does anyone think this is a good idea? And why now?” asks Anders.

The ACLU is urging citizens to call their Senator and demand that the Invalid Link Removed be added to the bill, a change that would at least act as a check to prevent Americans being snatched off the streets without some form of Congressional oversight.

We have been warning for over a decade that Americans would become the target of laws supposedly aimed at terrorists and enemy combatants.Invalid Link Removed in the event of martial law during urban warfare training drills back in the 90′s. Under the the National Defense Authorization Act bill, no declaration of martial law is necessary since Americans would now be subject to the same treatment as suspected insurgents in places like Afghanistan and Iraq.

If you thought that the executive assassination of American citizens abroad was bad enough, now similar powers will be extended to the “homeland,” in other words, your town, your community, your back yard.
 
Yes, Americans Will Be Targeted As Terrorists Under the NDAA

Republican Congressman Amash warns that bill can be applied to U.S. citizens

Monday, November 28, 2011
Controversy over whether or not Americans are exempt from a provision of the National Defense Authorization Act bill, set to be voted on this week by the Senate, which defines the the entirety of the United States as a battleground in the war on terror, has been addressed by Republican Congressman Justin Amash, who warns that the bill does apply to U.S. citizens.​
Invalid Link Removed

As we previously reported, under the ‘worldwide indefinite detention without charge or trial’ provision of S.1867, the Invalid Link Removed, which is set to be up for a vote on the Senate floor this week, the legislation will “basically say in law for the first time that the homeland is part of the battlefield,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), who supports the bill.

That provoked concerns that American citizens could be targeted as terrorists and indefinitely detained without trial or charge.​
“One section of these provisions, section 1031, would be interpreted as allowing the military to capture and indefinitely detain American citizens on U.S. soil. Section 1031 essentially repeals the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 by authorizing the U.S. military to perform law enforcement functions on American soil. That alone should alarm my colleagues on both sides of the aisle, but there are other problems with these provisions that must be resolved,” Invalid Link Removed in a speech earlier this month.

Following an ACLU alert on the legislation, some pointed out that the text of the bill actually exempts Americans from being detained under the new “homeland battlefield” designation under the proviso that “the requirement to detain a person in military custody under this section does not extend to citizens of the United States.”​
However, as Republican Congressman Justin Amash told the Invalid Link Removed, the language of the bill is “carefully crafted to mislead the public.”

“Note that it does not preclude U.S. citizens from being detained indefinitely, without charge or trial, it simply makes such detention discretionary,” Amash wrote on his Facebook page.

The controversy over whether or not the text of the bill suggests the legislation applies to U.S. citizens is largely inconsequential given the fact that every piece of anti-terror legislation passed since 9/11 has been used against Americans, both at home and abroad.

The Patriot Act was passed in the name of giving federal authorities the tools to catch terrorists, but it has been used in hundreds of cases against American citizens, often in Invalid Link Removed.

Furthermore, Invalid Link Removed, Anwar al-Awlaki, an American citizen who has never been charged with any crime, was the victim of extrajudicial killing because of the same unconstitutional legalese that defines the entire globe as a “battlefield,” where the constitutional rights of U.S. citizens are declared null and void if they are designated as terrorists by the federal government.​
Indeed, Invalid Link Removed that, “Being a U.S. citizen will not spare an American from getting assassinated by military or intelligence operatives.”

Recall that José Padilla, an American citizen, was held without charge for 3 and a half years as an “enemy combatant” and denied a trial in civilian court, after being accused of planning to detonate a “dirty bomb,” an accusation that was enough to keep Padilla in a military brig for over three years yet was never proven.

Invalid Link Removed that a “parallel legal system” had been put in place under the auspices of the war on terror, in which terrorism suspects — U.S. citizens and noncitizens alike — may be investigated, jailed, interrogated, tried and punished without legal protections guaranteed by the ordinary system.”​
The “battlefield” provision of the NDAA is nothing new, it is merely an updating of existing policy that has been applied to American citizens on numerous occasions over the last decade.

The difference is that the danger of American citizens being detained without trial as terrorists on frivolous pretexts is an even greater danger now given that the Invalid Link Removedbehavior such as buying gold, owning guns, using a watch or binoculars, donating to charity, using the telephone or email to find information, using cash, and all manner of mundane behaviors as potential indicators of domestic terrorism.
 
Drones could patrol in U.S., FAA says

Invalid Link Removed

The Qube drone, with four whirling rotors, flies at a height of about 200 feet.

BY W.J. HENNIGAN - Los Angeles Times
LOS ANGELES -- Drone aircraft, best known for their role in hunting and destroying terrorist hide-outs in Afghanistan, may soon be coming to the skies near you.

Police agencies want drones for air support to spot runaway criminals. Utility companies believe they can help monitor oil, gas and water pipelines. Farmers think drones could aid in spraying their crops with pesticides.

"It's going to happen," said Dan Elwell, vice president of civil aviation at the Aerospace Industries Association. "Now it's about figuring out how to safely assimilate the technology into national airspace."
That's the job of the Federal Aviation Administration, which plans to propose new rules for the use of small drones in January, a first step toward integrating robotic aircraft into the nation's skyways.

The agency issued 266 active testing permits for civilian drone applications but hasn't permitted drones in national airspace on a wide scale out of concern that the pilotless crafts don't have adequate "detect, sense and avoid" technology to prevent collisions.

Other concerns include privacy and the creative ways in which criminals and terrorists might use the machines.

Potential role
"By definition, small drones are easy to conceal and fly without getting a lot of attention," said John Villasenor, a UCLA professor and senior fellow at the Brookings Institution's Center for Technology Innovation. "Bad guys know this."

Police departments in Texas, Florida and Minnesota have expressed interest in the technology's potential to spot runaway criminals on rooftops or to track them at night by using the robotic aircraft's heat-seeking cameras.

Accepting technology
"Most Americans still see drone aircraft in the realm of science fiction," said Peter W. Singer, author of "Wired for War," a book about robotic warfare. "But the technology is here. And it isn't going away. It will increasingly play a role in our lives. The real question is: How do we deal with it?"
Drone maker AeroVironment Inc. has developed its first small helicopter drone that's designed specifically for law enforcement. If FAA restrictions are eased, the company plans to shop it among the estimated 18,000 state and local police departments across the United States.

AeroVironment engineers have been secretly testing a miniature remote-controlled helicopter named Qube. Buzzing like an angry hornet, the tiny drone with four whirling rotors swoops back and forth about 200 feet above the ground, capturing crystal-clear video of what lies below.

The new drone weighs 5 1/2 pounds, fits in the trunk of a car and is controlled remotely by a tablet computer. AeroVironment unveiled Qube last month at the International Association of Chiefs of Police conference in Chicago.

"This is a tool that many law enforcement agencies never imagined they could have," said Steven Gitlin, a company executive.

‘Indefinite Detention’ Bill Passes Senate 93-7

Americans completely stripped of all rights under Section 1031


Paul Joseph Watson
Friday, December 2, 2011


The Senate last night codified into law the power of the U.S. military to indefinitely detain an American citizen with no charge, no trial and no oversight whatsoever with the passage of S. 1867, the National Defense Authorization Act.

Invalid Link Removed

Invalid Link Removed that would have specifically blocked the measures from being used against U.S. citizens was voted down and the final bill was passed 93-7.

Another amendment introduced by Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Dianne Feinstein that attempted to bar the provision from being used on American soil, an effort to ensure “the military won’t be roaming our streets looking for suspected terrorists,” also failed, although Feinstein Invalid Link Removed of the bill anyway.

Feinstein was able to include a largely Invalid Link Removed that “nothing in the bill changes current law relating to the detention of U.S. citizens and legal aliens,” but this measure is meaningless according to Republican Congressman Justin Amash, a fierce critic of the bill.

“Some have asserted that Sen. Feinstein’s amendment, S Amdt 1456, protects the rights of American citizens and preserves constitutional due process. Unfortunately, it does not. It’s just more cleverly worded nonsense,” Invalid Link Removed.

Though the White House has threatened to veto the bill, the fact that Obama administration lawyers Invalid Link Removed for state sponsored assassination of U.S. citizens would suggest otherwise. Not voting for the bill, or in other words upholding the oath to protect the Constitution, has been described over and over again as “political suicide”.​
“The bill puts military detention authority on steroids and makes it permanent, American citizens and others are at greater risk of being locked away by the military without charge or trial,” said Christopher Anders, senior legislative counsel for the American Civil Liberties Union.

Invalid Link Removed, the bill completely violates the sixth amendment in that it allows American citizens to be locked up indefinitely, including in a foreign detention center, without any burden of proof whatsoever. An American merely has to be declared a terrorist and they can be abducted off the streets and never seen again.

“The detention mandate to use indefinite military detention in terrorism cases isn’t limited to foreigners. It’s confusing, because two different sections of the bill seem to contradict each other, but in the judgment of the University of Texas’ Robert Chesney — a nonpartisan authority on military detention — “U.S. citizens are included in the grant of detention authority,” writes Ackerman.

 
And there it goes.

Enjoy ****ers, blame it on Obama too right?.

IM sorry but this is just fuked up. Toss a black man in office and blame it all on him.

Im not calling him Obama anymore, Patsy is his name.

THe House and Senate is working at destroying out constitution and bill of rights daily.
 
Terrorist Congress Declares War on American People

December 3, 2011

The passage of S. 1867, the National Defense Authorization Act, declares war on Americans, boldly claiming the right to indefinitely detain anyone deemed an enemy of the state, including citizens. Darrin McBreen gets reactions from people on the street about what they think of the passing of the draconian NDAA Bill by the Senate.

'Indefinite Detention' Bill Passes Senate 93-7

Americans completely stripped of all rights under Section 1031

The Senate last night codified into law the power of the U.S. military to indefinitely detain an American citizen with no charge, no trial and no oversight whatsoever with the passage of S. 1867, the National Defense Authorization Act.

One amendment that would have specifically blocked the measures from being used against U.S. citizens was voted down and the final bill was passed 93-7.

Another amendment introduced by Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Dianne Feinstein that attempted to bar the provision from being used on American soil, an effort to ensure "the military won't be roaming our streets looking for suspected terrorists," also failed, although Feinstein voted in favor of the bill anyway.

It certainly looks like his name is Barack Obama. Invalid Link Removed

Ive bought up the topic several times before, but truthfully Obama is here then gone 1 or 5 years and what his name or where he is born is of tiny relevance compared to whats going on in America/Planet. Whats important to stay focused on are all these domestic/foreign policies that incrementally are taking place that is effecting and will effect us all.
 
oh you mean that whole military police state industrial capitalism fascism broken constitution thing?

got it

note to self, pay attention to ax1 and his posts.

I agree, but that begs the question: why bring it up in the first place?

The fake name/citizenship thing seems like an even more outlandish story than this: Invalid Link Removed
which, quite honestly, was good for a laugh because it was so ridiculous (and I live in central Illinois).
 
how many subs by AM members on this thread ax1?

i am curious to how many are following along, loving it or hating it, gimme a number!!!

Ill bring it up still, but it takes a bit of extensive energy to explain everything from the downloadable birth certificate (easily split apart with photoshop program as seen below and also done by myself) + many inconsistencies, to Ann Durham's CIA connections, to Lolo Soetoro's oil connections and his CIA backed coup of the Indonesian government that led to the death of 500 thousand to 1 million Indonesians, and it goes on and on. The entire recent family history is extremely shady.

So yes it bothers me, I dunno for sure I never will know for sure admittingly, but whats more important and effects everyone is these crazy policies and what goes on behind the scenes government crimes that bothers me the most.

When it comes to these cyber attacks, I dunno I have reasoning to believe some of it may be real, some of it is staged. If it is real they are beefing it up to be worse that it really is (using it as propaganda, problem/reaction/solution.) What I mean by that is that the government is looking to pull a Cyber 9/11 at some point (either by design or by letting it happen) so they can finalize complete control of it (or at least attempt), but they do have a internet Czar appointed by Obama who is basically has the power to be a internet kill switch (all who go online get re-directed to the White House cutting out all alternative media/info sources).

Just an FYI, that "layering" is the results of how PDFs are stored, and not editing. If I scan a document in my printer and save it as a PDF right now the same thing will happen (it depends on the particular settings I choose for creating the PDF as well, and perhaps the software that interprets the raw data).

You believe there has been a 40+ year giant conspiracy to get Obama in the White House? For what? He hasn't done anything different than anybody else that would've been elected had he failed to gain the democratic nomination or win the election. Really, it makes no sense.

All of the evidence is in favor of him being born Barack Obama, II in Hawaii. It really is one of the more ridiculous things I've heard.

Did you know Russia launched a successful attack on the U.S. water system recently? There are going to more attacks soon. Prepare for Red Dawn. :trink26:

There is more detail about that birth certificate than just the layering, but as I said it doesnt matter too much for me to get in to.

I heard that 40+ year conspiracy, I dont believe it was directed to get him in the whitehouse. I dont believe everything there is no reason to say I believe all the conspiracies out there. The reason he is president is due to money, marketing, and strong support from corporations and people in power behind the scenes we dont hear about (Bildeberger group for example.) He has a billion+ dollars for the next campaign already and I still get emails asking me for more money (I donated to his campaign several years ago when I supported him). Certainly, this is the way the country is run these days, its typical for the rest of the recent presidents and a democracy doesnt exist anymore on a national level.

I know Obama rose to power and has a family history of connection's, fortunes and power just like most other politicians such as Bush, but not on that level.

Not getting into too much detail about his entire family history right now, Obama was born into a CIA family (natural mother and father), and his step father Lolo has CIA support. Obama worked for the (BIA) Business International Corporation back in 1983 which is a CIA cover organization . The BIA conducted seminars for the leaders of the world, used journalists as agents overseas and his mother conducted CIA espionage activities (In the 60's, after Obama's stepfather staged the Indonesian CIA backed coup).

Anyways, Im supporting your statement, he hasn't done anything different than anybody else that would've been elected had he failed to gain the democratic nomination or win the election. Glancing at some of his past, and especially his current connections (far more important which I havent gotten in to), its truly no surprise Obama is business as usual and was not "change president" but instead George Bush's 3rd term.
 
85-Year-Old Grandmother to Sue TSA After Strip Search at JFK Airport

'I really look like a terrorist,' 110-pound Long Island grandmother says

BY Invalid Link Removed
NEW YORK DAILY NEWS
Friday, December 2 2011, 9:36 PM

Gary I. Rothstein for New York Daily News
Lenore Zimmerman, 85, shows injury she says was inflicted during strip search by security at JFK Airport.

An 85-year-old Long Island grandmother says she plans to sue the TSA after a humiliating strip search on Tuesday by agents at JFK Airport.

Invalid Link Removed, who lives in Long Beach, says she was on her way to a 1 p.m. flight to Fort Lauderdale when security whisked her to a private room and took off her clothes.

“I walk with a walker — I really look like a terrorist,” she said sarcastically. “I’m tiny. I weigh 110 pounds, 107 without clothes, and I was strip-searched.”

TSA spokeswoman Invalid Link Removed said a review of closed circuit TV footage from the airport shows “proper procedures were followed.”

But Zimmerman, whose hunched back puts her at 4-foot-11, said her ordeal began after her son, Bruce, drove her to the JetBlue terminal for the Florida flight. She lives in warm Coconut Creek during the winter.
She checked her bags, waited for a wheelchair and parted ways with her doting son — her only immediate relative.

When Zimmerman reached a security checkpoint, she asked if she could forgo the advanced image technology screening equipment, fearing it might interfere with her defibrillator.

She said she normally gets patted down. But this time, she says that two female agents escorted her to a private room and began to remove her clothes.

“I was outraged,” said Zimmerman, a retired receptionist.

As she tried to lift a lightweight walker off her lap, she says, the metal bars banged against her leg and blood trickled from a gash.

“My sock was soaked with blood,” she said. “I was bleeding like a pig.”

She says the TSA agents showed no sympathy, instead pulling down her pants and asking her to raise her arms.
“Why are you doing this?” she said she asked the agents, who did not respond.

The TSA claims the footage does not show any sign of the injury.

“Our screening procedures are conducted in a manner designed to treat all passengers with dignity, respect and courtesy,” Farbstein said.

Zimmerman says a medic arrived to treat her injury. The process took so long that she missed her 1 p.m. flight and had to catch a later one.

Her son said he was shocked when his mom called around 9 p.m. that night and described what happened.
“She was put through a hell of a day,” he said.

Zimmerman, who takes blood thinners, later had a tetanus shot for fear of infection from the walker wound.
Invalid Link Removed, 53, said he can’t understand why the agents targeted his mom.

“She looks like a sweet, little old lady,” he said. “She’s not a disruptive person or uncooperative.”

US equips police with military weapons

Invalid Link Removed
File photo shows US police.


A rapidly expanding US Pentagon program is equipping police forces, many in small towns, with second-hand battlefield-grade weaponry.


The US Department of Defense distributed USD 500 million worth of used military gear to police forces in 2011, through the “1033 program”, The Daily reported.

The dramatically growing figure sets a new record for the program, in comparison with distributions worth USD 212 million in 2010.

The distributions include grenade launchers, helicopters, military robots, M-16 assault rifles, and armored vehicles.

According to data provided by the Pentagon Defense Logistics Agency, orders in fiscal year 2012 have jumped by 400 percent over the same period in 2011.

Over 17,000 law-enforcement agencies have ordered USD 2.6 billion worth of tools, paying for delivery costs only.

The rise in the orders of weaponry comes as US crime rates have fallen to 40-year lows.

The "1033 program" was passed by Congress in 1997, aiming at providing law-enforcement agencies with equipment to fight drugs and terrorism.

According to the Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA), US sales of foreign arms remained above USD 30 billion after it reached USD 31.6 billion in fiscal year 2010. The figure for 2011 has reached USD 34.8 billion.

FBI's new definition of rape ensnares TSA agents as serial rapists

Thursday, December 08, 2011
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
Editor of NaturalNews.com (See all articles...)

(NaturalNews) The definition of "rape" was expanded this week by the Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI) Criminal Justice Advisory Policy Board, following a barrage of emails from feminist activists who demanded change. The old definition was too narrow, many women argued, and needed to be updated. For one thing, it didn't cover rape by women against women, or men against men, and we've all seen just how much of that goes on these days thanks to organizations like Penn State and the Catholic Church.

So in October, the FBI's UCR subcommittee Advisory Policy Board voted to recommend the definition be expanded. The new definition of rape, which looks set to be "officially" adopted by the FBI in 2012, is as follows:

"Rape" is: ...penetration, no matter how slight, of the vagina or anus with any body part or object, or oral penetration by a sex organ of another person, without the consent of the victim."

FBI's definition ensnares TSA agents as serial rapists

Here's the kicker in all this: According to this definition of rape, the federal government's TSA agents are serial rapists.

That's because, in the course of carrying out their lewd, improper and entirely illegal strip-searches and "enhanced pat-downs," they are engaged in precisely the acts covered in the FBI's definition of rape. Namely, entering the vagina and anus with their fingers without consent of the victim.

This means the next time you are fingered by a TSA agent in an airport you should seriously call the FBI and report a sex crime. In fact, it is illegal for you to not report a sex offender committing a crime of which you are directly aware. Failure to do so could make you an accomplice in that person's next sex crime, legally speaking.

Is the TSA really committing these sex crimes in America today? Yes, absolutely. Gov. Jesse Ventura's lawsuit against the TSA goes into great detail about precisely these kinds of violation. Here's another story about a woman who was sexually molested by the TSA: Invalid Link Removed

Former Miss USA was also technically molested by the TSA: Invalid Link Removed

And now three elderly women have stepped forward and claimed they were forced to remove their underwear and strip-searched by TSA agents at JFK (Invalid Link Removed). Countless women are being raped every single day by the TSA, and most are too shamed by the incident (or intimidated by TSA thugs) to step forward.

What we're looking at here is government-sanctioned sex offenders who are feeling up our children, teenage daughters, wives, mothers and grandmothers, routinely raping them, and then getting away with it day after day! And, astonishingly, there are only a handful of alternative media people who seem to care about this, with myself being one of the most outspoken. What I have learned in all this is that feminist groups don't care if their women get raped by government agents because they don't say a word against it.

Where are women's' organizations in taking a stand against serial rapists working at the airport?

In recent protests about expanding the definition of rape, one woman held up a sign that read, "TAKE RAPE SERIOUSLY."

Except, not if the government is raping people, apparently. Because when the government rapes women in plain daylight, women's groups remain eerily silent and don't take it seriously at all.

In a recent article, I called out the National Organization for Women (NOW) for its total silence on the issue of government TSA agents molesting and physically abusing women at airports (Invalid Link Removed). Why is rape wrong in the workplace, but rape is totally acceptable at the airport as long as it's carried out by a government agent?

One of the activist groups behind the FBI's recent expansion of rape is the Feminist Majority Foundation. They have a campaign called "RAPE IS RAPE" and their protesters march the streets holding up signs that say things like "STOP VIOLENCE!" See photos at: Invalid Link Removed

But where is the Feminist Majority Foundation on the issue of the TSA raping women all across America? Dead silence...

So I guess rape isn't rape then, is it? Not if you're working for the TSA, it isn't, apparently. And "STOP VIOLENCE" actually means "...except if the government is committing that violence against women," in which case all these feminist groups seem to be perfectly okay with it.

Feminist.org caught hosting job listings for TSA serial rapists

In fact, the Feminist.org website even hosts a job listing for a TSA security directory at the L.A. airport! Listed under "feminist jobs and internships" and touting a tag line in the header that reads, "Equality around the world," this job listing promises that "your success is critical to national security" and says you'll make up to $172,000 a year (Invalid Link Removed). But what it doesn't say is that part of your job involves leading a team of serial rapists who physically and psychologically abuse women on a day-to-day basis while getting paid inflated government wages to do so. And this is woman-on-woman rape, so it's really feminists raping other women! How sick can this get?

So feminist.org is apparently not opposed to the TSA raping women every single day in America, and it's actively helping the TSA recruit more feminist women who will then rape other women! Is that the new feminism in America? I hope not...

NaturalNews challenges Feminist.org and NOW to denounce the TSA serial raping of women

As the editor of NaturalNews.com, I personally challenge these two women's organizations to publicly denounce the TSA serial raping of women, as defined by the FBI.

If these two organizations will not publicly denounce the ongoing raping of women in America, they are total frauds who are betraying the very women whose rights and "equality" they claim to be fighting form. Maybe by "equality" they just mean that all women are equally raped at the airport or something similarly perverted...

Here at NaturalNews, we believe rape is wrong, and unlike NOW and Feminist.org, we don't make exceptions for federal employees committing those acts of rape. We think rape is ALWAYS wrong, whether you're at an airport, a restaurant, a dental chair or a late-night party where you had a little too much to drink or your sex offender creep boyfriend dropped a little Rohypnol in your cup.

It is stunning to find that we, an alternative news organization, actually possess a stronger sense of opposing rape than these feminist groups. And it makes you wonder: If they believe rape is acceptable when committed by federal employees at the airport, under what other conditions would they also support the serial raping of women?

When is it okay to rape women? When you work for the government! (Sick!)

If they already believe it's okay for federal employees to rape women, would they also say it's okay for local law enforcement officers to rape women, too? Or is this just a federal right or some sort? Or how about dentists? Can dentists rape women after giving them a little too much anesthesia? Or is that not okay? Somebody clarify this for me, please, because I'm finding all sorts of inconsistencies with the "RAPE IS RAPE... but not always" explanations of these feminist groups.

Oh, or maybe I'm just too stupid to figure this out. I see. I'm not "smart" enough to know that when TSA agents stick their fingers inside your anus and vagina, against your will, somehow that's NOT rape. Okay, wow. So I must be really stupid or something because I thought rape was always rape. I thought NO meant NO. Maybe I'm just not "trendy" and "metrosexual" enough to stay up with the latest fads, I guess. Maybe the feminists today are actually advocating being raped by government agents and nobody told me about that trend, so here I am like an idiot fighting against the raping of American women when nobody gave me the memo that reads, "Rape is now socially acceptable as long as the rapist claims to be fighting terrorism."

Well then, if rape is okay now then I suppose if a TSA agent carries a badge to a night club, then he can rape all the women he wants there, right? Because government agents are allowed to rape at will, right? All they have to do is claim they're "fighting terrorism" while they rip your underwear off, right? That's what they do to 88-year old women at JFK.

Oh wait, maybe you mean they're only allowed to rape women at the airport, not at night clubs or bars. Ah, I get it. So now airports are legalized rape zones, and that's why it's okay to rape women there, then, right? Am I getting this yet? This sounds really complicated, because I thought rape was rape, no meant no, and I had no idea airports were "legalized rape zones." Maybe they should put up a sign to indicate that, huh?

Silly me. All this time I've been operating from the apparently whacko belief that your vagina or your anus was your own private business and that nobody had the right to violate your body without your express consent. I guess I'm just not up to speed on the latest feminist philosophy, which defends the "administrative right" of government agents to commit serial sex offender crimes at will as long as such crimes are committed at airport security checkpoints in the name of "national security."

Hitler would have been proud. Yet even though Hitler's soldiers gassed Jewish women by the millions, even they didn't rape them first! For that level of psychopathic perverted sickness, you gotta come to the USA, folks. No wonder tourism in the USA has plummeted to record lows. Maybe tour companies should advertise a "free raping!" on their brochures as part of the "bonus" of flying through the United States of America which now features "legalized rape zones" known as international airports.

Where is your outrage?

I hope you see what I'm doing here. I'm trying to evoke your justified outrage at the verifiable fact that women are being raped by the TSA every single day in America -- and no one is doing anything about it.

The tongue-in-cheek questions I ask above are lewd, insensitive and highly inappropriate -- which is EXACTLY what you need to feel in your gut right now if you are to have any hope of responding to this situation with the proper degree of anger and indignation.

The raping of women in America's airports is WRONG! It is ALWAYS wrong! There are no exceptions. No excuses. No "administrative rights." No "we're fighting terrorism" B.S.

RAPE IS WRONG. Even in the name of (false) security. And to all the women reading this, if you let the TSA rape you today, what else will they try tomorrow?

I mean, for all your fluoride-drooling morons out there who think raping women is perfectly okay because we're "fighting terrorism," do you also think that the TSA can rape little boys, too, as long as they claim to be fighting terrorism? So then, in your mind, the only thing that Sandusky did wrong at Penn States is that he wasn't working for the TSA at the time he was allegedly raping those boys?

Really? Is that your sick, pathetic system of distorted logic?

You see, I recognize this situation for EXACTLY what it is. I have a clear head on this, and my eyes are wide open. I recognize the simple truth that women are being raped across America every single day in our nation's airports, and even if I am the lone person shouting this across the country, I will continue to shout this simple, obvious truth for as long as it takes for enough people to wake up do something to stop it.

Regardless of the disturbing silence of the feminists on this subject, rape is unacceptable as a "security policy", even when done by someone wearing a badge. I shouldn't even have to spend my time covering this whole thing -- this realization should be OBVIOUS if half the country weren't so doped up on psychiatric drugs and vaccine poisoning side effects that their brains were already half-melted into a zombie-like state.

It's absurd to even have to say this, but let's stop the raping of women in America. And let's arrest, indict and imprison the serial rapist sex offenders who are affectionately known as TSA agents. The only badge these goons should be wearing is a name badge in a psychiatric ward.

Invalid Link Removed

Following our report on December 6 documenting Invalid Link Removed in the United States, Business Insider posted an article entitled Invalid Link Removed

“Every soldier that enlists in the Army chooses a Military Occupational Specialty (MOS),” writes Robert Johnson. “Designated by a number and a letter, the 31E MOS now includes advanced responsibilities including command and control of prisoner of war and civilian internee camps.”

The job is related to the subcontractor work announced by KBR: “Supervise and establish all administrative, logistical and food support operations, confinement/correctional, custodial, treatment, and rehabilitative activities.”

The listing is posted under “Careers & Jobs” on the Invalid Link Removed. It reads in part:
Internment/Resettlement (I/R) Specialists in the Army are primarily responsible for day-to-day operations in a military confinement/correctional facility or detention/internment facility. I/R Specialists provide rehabilitative, health, welfare, and security to U.S. military prisoners within a confinement or correctional facility; conduct inspections; prepare written reports; and coordinate activities of prisoners/internees and staff personnel.

Some of your duties as an Internment/Resettlement Specialist may include:
– Assist with the supervision and management of confinement and detention operations
– Provide external security to confinement/corrections facilities or detention/internment facilities
– Provide counseling and guidance to individual prisoners within a rehabilitative program
– Prepare or review reports and records of prisoners/internees and programs

The job is similar to one offered by the Army National Guard. Invalid Link Removed in July of 2009. Following our original post, the Army National Guard removed the job posting from its website.

Invalid Link Removed

It is a sign of just how fast the police state is advancing that drones in American skies have gone from conspiracy theory to admitted fact in about a year.

In a Invalid Link Removed, local law enforcement in North Dakota nabbed three suspected armed men with the help of a Predator B unmanned drone. It was only after the drone confirmed that the men were unarmed that police moved in to make the arrest.

It has now become clear that, as Invalid Link Removed for the past year, the drones that were supposedly commissioned strictly as tools for border control will now patrol inland for suspected criminals on American soil, heralding a new level of police state oppression.

In April I wrote about the Invalid Link Removed based on the admissions made by two-star General, John Priddy, from the U.S. National Air Security Operations Center, evidenced in the video below, that the continued expansion of predator drone surveillancewas a stated goal for the coming years.


His comments were echoed by Al Palmer, Director of Unmanned Aircraft Training at the world's largest center at the University of North Dakota, which just so happens to be the location of the arrest alluded to above, that "The world is going to spend $80 billion on unmanned aircraft between now and 2016."

(Note from me: Wow, the video I was about to post was deleted and the user's account was terminated, Invalid Link Removed)

As the Los Angeles Times report states:
Congress first authorized Customs and Border Protection to buy unarmed Predators in 2005. Officials in charge of the fleet cite broad authority to work with police from budget requests to Congress that cite 'interior law enforcement support' as part of their mission.

True to form, once the cat is out of the bag, we learn just how extensive the program really is.
Michael C. Kostelnik, a retired Air Force general who heads the office that supervises the drones, said Predators are flown 'in many areas around the country, not only for federal operators, but also for state and local law enforcement and emergency responders in times of crisis.'

Beyond the troubling announcement that military drones have arrived from overseas to conduct operations in America, the way in which this first arrest was made -- and the family that was targeted -- should be equally disturbing.

The Brossart family are owners of a 3,000-acre ranch who were reported to police for stray cows that had entered a neighboring property. When the Sheriff arrived with a search warrant he said he was forced off the property at gunpoint. Apparently, the Sheriff feared that this could turn into another Ruby Ridge incident:
The six adult Brossarts allegedly belonged to the Sovereign Citizen Movement, an antigovernment group that the FBI considers extremist and violent. The family had repeated run-ins with local police, including the arrest of two family members earlier that day arising from their clash with a deputy over the cattle.

This incident too comfortably fits the new narrative which seeks to justify an expansion of the War on Terror by including Invalid Link Removed, thus Invalid Link Removed to be used, and eradicating the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878. These Sovereign Citizens, as "extremist and violent" by decree, have received the very same treatment as those in the Middle East and North Africa who are suspected insurgents or enemy combatants.

This event also comes shortly after the recent exposure of a Invalid Link Removed, housed on the same land reserve as Area 51 of all places. This discovery merely shows that the drone program is full-speed ahead inside the United States, as similar "secret" programs have been uncovered overseas in places like Invalid Link Removed and Invalid Link Removed.

The unmanned drone program in the U.S. actually goes back to at least 2007 when it was first uncovered by reporters in Texas that Invalid Link Removed in an exercise coordinated with local police. The claim that this was only for border control was quickly shattered when Invalid Link Removedbecame the first to commission micro-drones, which are specifically designed for effective use in the close quarters of a city environment.

Now that the precedent has been set -- with a supporting narrative to boot -- the full spectrum of the drone capability is set to be unleashed in America. Everything from Invalid Link Removed to Invalid Link Removed and even Invalid Link Removed that mimic nature itself. And don't think that weaponization is far off.

We will be sold first on the effective use of surveillance to thwart armed conflict, like this one with the dangerous Sovereign Citizens, and other extremists to come no doubt. Then, perhaps we will see them used to deliver Invalid Link Removed from above to quell protests (sorry, riots). Then, once we have become fully acclimated . . . .

Dennis Kucinich is one of very few critical voices on this issue. Kucinich penned Invalid Link Removed back in August warning of the threat to the rule of law posed by unmanned drones. His screed was directed toward their misuse overseas, but he alludes to the writing on the wall, which clearly states that America shall be viewed as no different than any other country plagued by remote control surveillance and warfare:
Think of the use of drone air strikes as summary executions, extra-judicial killings justified by faceless bureaucrats using who-knows-what 'intelligence,' with no oversight whatsoever and you get the idea that we have slipped into spooky new world where joystick gods manipulating robots deal death from the skies and then go home and hug their children. Everything America was once said to stand for: the rule of law, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights is in danger of becoming collateral damage as our fearful leaders continue to kill suspects and innocent alike, mindlessly unaware that the hellfire we are sowing will surely be reaped by Americans in the future. The proliferation of drone technology and its inevitable extension to civilian law enforcement is a leap into the arms of Big Brother.

We have seen horrendous civilian casualties in other countries from this supposed high-tech fleet of unmanned drones operated from trailers thousands of miles away. Countries like Pakistan have had enough and have sent the fleet packing. I submit that we should not wait for the casualties to mount before dismissing this wasteful military expenditure that is part and parcel of deleting human life, and deleting our Constitution.
 
Ron Paul: Defense Bill Establishes Martial Law In America
Congressman condemns “bold, arrogant, dangerous” move to intern Americans without trial



Paul Joseph Watson
Tuesday, December 13, 2011

Top tier presidential candidate Ron Paul has decried the ‘indefinite detention’ provision of the National Defense Authorization Act, warning that it represents an arrogant, bold and dangerous attempt to establish martial law in America.​

Speaking with the Alex Jones Show today, Congressman Paul went on the offensive against the bill, which is set to be signed into law by President Obama later this week.

Section 1031 of the NDAA bill, which itself defines the entirety of the United States as a “battlefield,” allows American citizens to be snatched from the streets, carted off to a foreign detention camp and held indefinitely without trial. The bill states that “any person who has committed a belligerent act” faces indefinite detention, but no trial or evidence has to be presented, the White House merely needs to make the accusation.

Paul said he saw significance in “the announcement and the arrogance of it all,” making reference to the Obama administration’s claim that it can now assassinate American citizens anywhere in the world and noting that the passage of the NDAA bill is an effort to codify the policy into law.

“This is a giant step – this should be the biggest news going right now – literally legalizing martial law,” said Paul, noting that the subject did not come up at all in any of the Republican debates.

The Congressman also decried the “arrogance” of an attempt to push through via a voice vote an amendment that would have still authorized Invalid Link Removed after a trial. The amendment was narrowly defeated by his son, Senator Rand Paul.

“This is big,” emphasized Paul, adding “This step where they can literally arrest American citizens and put them away without trial….is arrogant and bold and dangerous.”

Despite speculation that the Obama administration would veto the bill, Invalid Link Removed that it was the White House itself which worked to remove language from the bill that would have protected American citizens from indefinite detention under Section 1031.

The administration has been working with lawmakers to alter a separate provision, Section 1032, which pertains to the military being required to take custody of individuals.

With the administration’s concerns over Section 1032 now largely resolved, a revised and final version of the bill could be signed into law before the end of the week.

“The conferees said they plan to bring the bill to the House floor for a vote as soon as Wednesday afternoon and to the Senate soon thereafter,” Invalid Link Removed.

Despite the revisions, the bill still contains language that allows Americans to be detained without trial at a detention center anywhere in the world.

Republican Congressman Justin Amash has again warned that lawmakers are attempting to mislead the American people by claiming U.S. citizens are exempt from the most dangerous provisions of the bill.

“Pres. Obama and many Members of Congress believe the President ALREADY has the authority the bill grants him. Legally, of course, he does not. This language was inserted to keep proponents and opponents of the bill appeased, while permitting the President to assert that the improper power he has claimed all along is now in statute,” Invalid Link Removed.​
“They will say that American citizens are specifically exempted under the following language in Sec. 1032: “The requirement to detain a person in military custody under this section does not extend to citizens of the United States. Don’t be fooled. All this says is that the President is not REQUIRED to indefinitely detain American citizens without charge or trial. It still PERMITS him to do so,” warns the Congressman.

Amash is encouraging Americans to Invalid Link Removed expressing their opposition to the NDAA bill, calling it “one of the most anti-liberty pieces of legislation of our lifetime.”

Flip Flopper Obama: WILL NOT VETO DETENTION BILL

This evening the U.S. House of Representatives passed, with overwhelming support, the National Defense Authorization ActInvalid Link Removed.
Invalid Link Removed

You’ll note that at the time the legislation was being debated President Obama assured Americans that he would never sign the bill if it came to his desk.
The bill, which allows for the indefinite detainment of those, including American citizens, suspected of engaging in or supporting terrorist activity has not changed in any meaningful way over the last few weeks. This, of course, leaves inquiring minds questioning why the President would have so abruptly reversed his position:
Less than a month after he threatened to veto terrifying legislation that would cease constitutional rights as we know it, Obama has revoked his warning and plans to authorize a bill allowing indefinite detention and torture of Americans.
After passing in the House of Representatives earlier this year, the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 went before the US Senate last week, where it was met with overwhelming approval. In the days before,the Obama administration issued a policy statement on November 17 saying explicitly 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.”
Opposition from the White House seemed all but rampant until RT revealed earlier this week that Senator Carl Levin told lawmakers that the legislation was altered because “the administration asked us to remove the language which says that US citizens and lawful residents would not be subject to this section.”
On Wednesday, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said that those last minute changes yielded legislation that would “not challenge the president’s ability to collect intelligence, incapacitate dangerous terrorists and protect the American people,” and thereforethe president’s senior advisers will not recommend a veto.
Originally the White House said that the administration objected to matters in the bill that applied to detainees. Under the act, Americans could be arrested and held indefinitely in military-run prisons and tortured without charges ever being brought forth, essentially making Guantanamo Bay a threat for every American citizen.

On December 5th, ahead of Congressional voting, Invalid Link Removed that the new legislation would allow the government to detain American citizens under terrorism laws without evidence, charge or trial. Specifically, Paul cited the government’s own broad definitions and characterizations for domestic terrorism or suspicious activity as involving those who, among other things, own guns, ammunition or store food.

Bill Cosponsor John McCain (under questioning from Rand Paul) argues that detention (as defined by the National Defense Authorization Act) of anyone who is deemed a threat to the national security of the United States of America is appropriate:

[video=youtube;aUHh1iqe43w]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=aUHh1iqe43w[/video]

The very fact that this bill was ever penned and allowed to get as far as it has gotten in our Constitutional Republic is cause for concern. A glimmer of hope existed for a few weeks when the President claimed he would veto it if it came to his desk. As has been the case throughout this administration’s term, however, our hope was for naught. Someone, somewhere needs this legislation to pass. To what end we can only speculate.
 
MTV runs advert opposing Obama’s NDAA bill

Youtube
December 16, 2011

Viewers would be surprised to see MTV’s recent anti-Martial Law advert that ran this week opposing Obama’s wholy unconstitutional NDAA S.1867 Bill.

It’s part of of MTV’s ‘Think’ ad campaign, and is a clear break from the usual innocuous political content that we are normally used to seeing on a pop music network. The appearance of such a timely message here is somewhat surprising from the network whose unquestioning loyalty helped catapult Barack Obama into office in 2008, and may be called upon again to do the same in 2012…
