Unique Terrorist Description and MIAC Report


Here is a part of an article that has been widely circulated, but I cannot confirm on any government or police website. (big suprise) The Patriot Act and other homeland security documents do leave lots to be desired on what a "domestic terrorist" is, but just to show you how close our freedoms are from being taken away.

While you read this list think of two things
1. Anyone fitting this description would have the Patriot Act supercede all constitutional rights because you are a domestic terrorist.

2. Even if this was fake would it suprise you if it was real? (by the way it isn't fake)
  • Expressions of libertarian philosophies (statements, bumper stickers)
  • Second Amendment-oriented views (NRA or gun club membership, holding a CCW permit)
  • Survivalist literature (fictional books such as “Patriots” and “One Second After” are mentioned by name)
  • Self-sufficiency (stockpiling food, ammo, hand tools, medical supplies)
  • Fear of economic collapse (buying gold and barter items)
  • Religious views concerning the book of Revelation (apocalypse, anti-Christ)
  • Expressed fears of Big Brother or big government
  • Homeschooling
  • Declarations of Constitutional rights and civil liberties
  • Belief in a New World Order conspiracy

Debate Review November 22nd GOP National Security Debate


This debate was less telling than the previous review I did of the thanksgiving family forum, but no less significant.

This debate was more traditional in the sense of 1 minute to 30 seconds for answers. There were several key moments in the debate, but most answers were very similiar to others.

1. The key question asked was would the candidates seek to repeal "the patriot act."

All candidates said they would not except Ron Paul. (See previous posts for my thoughts in depth on this)

The Patriot Act

The Patriot Act is a law that President Bush Jr. signed into power following the attacks of 9-11. This gave the government a huge amount of power and we as the American people gladly let it happen. Why?

BECAUSE WE WERE SCARED. Ben Franklins quote of not giving liberty up for temporary safety exactly applied here. We are the American people have failed our country and our Founding Fathers by allowing this trashing of our constitution. We broke away from England partially because they were housing themselves (invading privacy) in our house.

I will a partial part of the bill of rights and show how The Patriot Act tramples it.
