Freedom called .........

[Byte Stryke]

well said

although freedom died a long time ago
we live in a police state, but no one seems to care.

don't think so?
think I'm wrong?

In the 1930's, we all made fun of nazi germany because citizens of germany could be forced to stop for no reason and show their papers to be allowed to travel.
now we have:
"random" DUI stops
TSA groping
etc

No way would anyone of the 1930's have imagined that, yet here we are?

We have so many police (because the peace officers are long gone) that they have nothing better to do but enforce the laws for money/fishing expeditions (or do you think that cops sitting on the side of the road running radar is for your safety?)

and we have this week here in longmont, the SWAT team with full M16 rifles, black ski masks, black boots, black vests (remind you of anything, I'll give you a hint: 1938 Germany) going in to a medical MJ shop to shut it down because of a code violation. Really, do you feel safer?

In the fine words of Jerry Pournelle:
"Freedom is not free, free men are not equal, equal men are not free. Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty. We would not have permitted King George to do this.?"

They really used a SWAT team to shut down a store for a code violation?
Can you imagine them using swat to shut down a liquor store?

Byte: Go into a crowded movie theatre and yell 'FIRE' real loud two or three times. Attend either the DNC or the RNC, and yell 'He's got a gun!' real loud while the cameras are rolling.

When you get out, we will talk about the limits the SCOTUS has placed on "unlimited" freedom of speech.

Here, I'll be all fancy with the quotes as well: http://www.supremecourt.gov/search.a...eech&type=Site

When a cop tells you to do something, you do it. If he abridged your rights, then you can sue.

i still say nuke them...less bombs are required. we can even call the bomber a "hybrid" or "fuel efficient" aircraft since we will be using less fuel than multiple planes/ships etc. that label will make the liberals happy too. "Green aircraft delivers aid to Libya" will be the headline.

Well it doesn't take a civics professor to figure that ones rights never supersede the rights of another, But nice false argument.
Just as one cannot fabricate and spread lies in either written or spoken form.
As much as I Strongly disagree with disagree with Them, Even WBC has the right to their hate filled crap.
Each right has responsibility, Please do try to be better in your presentations in the future. While everyone has the right to free speech, Ignorance and false arguments are not protected.

As for the state officers abridging rights, when your taxes are multiplied by the repetitive lawsuits brought by Citizens that will not be folded asunder by fear of their government, Remember, Just shut up and do what your government tells you to do.

Let me be clear, I do not agree with what the protestors are saying, But I Will defend with my life their right to say it.
