Today I offer you a few news snippets you can put in the handbasket our government is going to hell in...
Picture this...
Documents obtained by CBS News show that the federal government secretly encouraged angry bomb throwers to engage in irresponsible and incendiary language in the hope of using the ensuing violence to argue for controversial new speech restrictions.That didn't really happen. I made it up. I wish someone had made this up, but it's all too true...
Documents obtained by CBS News show that the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) discussed using their covert operation "Fast and Furious" to argue for controversial new rules about gun sales. (CBS News)The ATF is a rogue organization and should be disbanded, along with the entire Heimatlandsicherheit, and Janet Napoleaonitano should be exiled to the island of Elba, along the Minister of Injustice, Eric Holder.
Government actions to steal our 2nd Amendment rights are un-American because they are unconstitutional. The people and the states promulgated the US Constitution to charge the federal government with protecting our natural rights. It is now consciously doing the opposite.
Imagine if a government conspired to take away your 4th Amendment rights... Wait, that's already happened...
You see, such plots and false flag operations (real or imagined) can only work if our constitutional rights are no longer held sacrosanct. The fact that nefarious progressive forces see our rights as debatable and ripe for the snatching tells me we are already in danger.
CBS News - Government used Fast and Furious
IBD - Just as we suspected
New York Police State of Mind
A US Marine combat vet faces 15 Years in jail for bringing a gun to New York city. He thought he had the law straight, and freely surrendered it when entering a pubic building that had a sign posted stating no guns allowed. That's when he was busted. Since our law enforcement at all levels no longer cares about criminal intent, they are simply making the world safe from responsible gun owners who voluntarily surrender their weapons when asked.
Feel safer, you bed-wetting gun grabbers? Now, if cops could only figure out how to get criminals to give up their guns...
HR 1540 gave us a clear view of who the liberty-lovers are, and who the stone-cold statists uber alles are. Posse Comitatus is out the window.
There was a time not too may years ago when I would look to certain politicians as a litmus test or shorthand for right and wrong. "If Allan West voted for it, it must be OK!" Well, not anymore.
Are our politicians really so intellectually bereft that this is all they can come up with?
Hundreds of billions spent on intelligence and national law enforcement agencies, and we have to resort to declaring the United States a war zone with US citizens as enemy combatants, subject to indefinite detention and military tribunals?
This sickens and horrifies me, moreso because it does not sicken and horrify good conservatives like Allen West and others. The enemies of the people who voted for this police state nightmare should be shipped off to Guantanamo. Or better yet, put them on Castro's side of the fence so they can see the result of such laws.
And I am pissed that I find myself in agreement with Al Franken.
Customs officials deported a teenage girl, while MS-13 gang members here illegally roam free like they own the place. So how will more government fix this? The cheeky young lass gave false information to ICE agents, so they sent her to Colombia, even though that country has never in its history had anyone named Jakadrian...
This is what an inept and dysfunctional government does when it can no longer catch real criminals: It turns on its own citizens.
Here’s a simple test: Does a law result in more liberty for citizens, or less?
There are two kinds of people in this world: Those who would expand and defend personal liberty, and those who would circumscribe it. Emperor Obama belongs in the latter category, but discussing Obama rolling up the constitution and smoking it is getting old...

Chevy Dolt: It's Not a Recall, It's a Reunion!

We don’t like the word, “recall,” said a GM Spokesman. "We prefer to think of it as a reunion. Come back to the place where you took your financially foolish but morally superior stand! Relive the excitement while we perform some minor enhancements that could keep you from dying in a car fire!"Ron Paul's popularity with young people is legend…
