The trifecta completed

[esaabye]

First, DHS describes me as a threat.
Second, The Anti-Defamation League labels several groups I identify with or actively support as extremist anti-government.
Third, the EPA now considers the very act of my breathing to be harmful to the entire human race and the planet as a whole.

Seems like they have all the justifications in place to save us from ourselves and marginalize or directly attack those that disagree.

Expand.

War of the Worlds is coming.

sounds like they are just building their case for mass extermination of "politically incorrect" citizens.

Third, the EPA now considers the very act of my breathing to be harmful to the entire human race and the planet as a whole.

This is both factually true and reasonable, and does well to convince me of the veracity of your other statements.

The one thing I really don't get.. I will admit it has been awhile since 7th grade science,, But isn't Carbon Dioxide fairly essential for plants to convert to oxygen? No CO2=No plants.. No plants=No O2.. No O2=No life..

I'm pretty sure the .gov (via the EPA) has decreed that greenhouse gasses, including CO2, are harmful so they can issue legislation by decree (increased regulations) and circumvent the legislative process. It's gonna make it a lot easier for the anthropogenic global warming alarmists to further their agenda and impose their will on the populace now.

It's something the ATF has been doing for a long time. They don't really have to pass new laws to ban or reclassify certain firearms.

I've taken to calling it the "Existence Tax" since that's exactly what it is.

Makes me so angry.

[esaabye]

I get so frustrated by these tactics.

If you want to make something a right, put it in a constitutional amendment.

If you want to take away a right, repeal or amend the constitution.

Do not try to tax or regulate me into change. You want me to change, ask me. If you do not like the answer, too dam bad.

In the last 12 months my government has defined me as a potential threat based profiling, an indirect threat based on associations and a general nuisance to the whole planet. While some of that might be true (I am a breather) this adds greatly to my distrust.

When they wonder why we do not trust them they forget that we actually listen to what they say.

Now we will make the world green by sending my tax money to other countries, shipping my job to those ‘emerging economies’ and teaching my children that all animals are created equal and should have the same rights.

There was a time when this was done. When they wanted to make liquor against the law, they recognized that government didn't have the right to do it without amending the constitution.

Nowadays, the government bans anything it wants to without worrying about the constitution. Marijuana, assault rifles, lead paint, smoking in public, fully auto weapons, etc, etc. Politicians find the constitution 'too confining', so they simply ignore it and pass whatever laws they feel like.
