The Story of the Bill of Rights

"What is happening to our country?" ask two bird watchers who were queried by the FBI, on a repeated basis, just because of engaging in their peaceful activity of bird watching.

Imagine....giving to a charitable foundation and receiving a call at work from the FBI.

Imagine...the US. Dept of Justice warning a school that "an anti-war protest is coming your way" and targeting participants as terrorists.

Imagine....a man of Middle Eastern descent the subject of racial profiling, being arrested on his way back to the USA from a wedding at home, being shackled, humiliated and made to do some physically almost impossible things....on pure suspicion of appearing to be Middle Eastern.

This is one among a series of posts I am going to be showing here to prove that The War on Terror is a fake.

Please help to bring this fact out into the open, with the public.

Show the link above and quote the facts to....your local newspaper editor, your college newsletter editors (and ask the students to show this to their parents and other college friends, their friends' respective college editors, etc)...as well as your mainstream editor.

People have got to "get it" that there need be no suspicion of terrorist activity in order for the FBI to investigate. In fact, the Patriot Act's loose definition of "terrorism" includes activists, religious and peace groups. Therefore, "abuses" such as the ones above are not "abuses" at all. Instead, they are fulfillments of the unconstitutional law, the Patriot Act.

THINGS WILL ONLY GET WORSE AFTER THE THOUGHT CRIMES BILL PASSES. PEOPLE WHO SAY THAT THE THOUGHT CRIMES BILL "ONLY" STUDIES TERRORISM MUST SEE THIS LINK ABOVE. PLEASE PASS THIS ON. THANK YOU!

This quote summarizes the nature of my concerns and the content of personal experiences which stir my activism: "Necessity is the plea for every infringement on human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves". --Paul (more...)
