minuteman project and Waco type events thread
Paul,
I've been reading your wise words. My question is what good is all of this if the govt. is hijacked by the executive branch and all rights are suspended? I'm not dismissing anything you've contributed, and appreciate your efforts to educate and enlighten those of us with lacking in legal background. The declaration of martial law, a commensurate crackdown or govt. contol of the media, internet restrictions, etc. would basically put the citizenry at a distinct disadvantage. What effective and coordinated actions could be taken now to turn the tide? Is it too late?
Starlord,
You better always know where all weapons are located.
Lonewolf,
I think most of the active members here are well aware of the Padilla case and the other American citizen (Arab or Muslim name I can't recall) who have been held without due process for over two years. What's more disturbing are the reports of torture in Guantonamo Bay, Afghanistan and Iraq that have dropped back into the "so what?" bin. Just as disturbing is the lack of public outcry at the disclosure of the current administration's legal brief which allows torture. I have noticed an increased cognitive dissonance regarding the entire 9/11 event and the official story of how the buildings collapsed. Maybe there's hope, but it may not come in time.
Strange and disturbing times.
Cary
