Well, we're behind Soviet Russia, Nazi Germany, and Communist China in the concentration camps department. Maybe now is the time to catch up? The OWS people would be the first to go in, obviously.

Keep doing this and one day the US soil will really become a battlefield once again.

Well, in Mussolini's fascist Italy the goddamed trains ran on time!

...and the Nazis were such snappy dressers. The DHS couldn't hold a candle to the Schutzstaffel's keen fashion sense. I mean... if the jackboot fits...

Probably when the President signs the bill in to "law."

Will there be a rule of law at that point?

Surprising this passed the Dem. controlled Senate, but then again given the two-party dictatorship it's not.

Time to stock up on ammunition :emb:

I wrote this Haiku about the suspension of Habeus Corpus during the Civil War some time ago:

Habeas corpus
Lincoln suspended that writ
new birth of freedom


teehee!

"Most Democrats voted against the provisions but only two Republicans voted nay — despite the fact that it is the Republicans more than the Democrats who talk about the importance of abiding by the Constitution. The two Republican Senators who have both read and respected the Constitution of the United States and therefore voted against the travesty were Mark Kirk of Illinois and Rand Paul of Kentucky."

It was a Republican who signed in to law the Minimum Age Drinking Act of 1984.

A clear trampling on the State's rights. Why do these morons revere Reagan again?

All of them are idiots.

"The enemy is all over the world. Here at home. And when people take up arms against the United States and [are] captured within the United States, why should we not be able to use our military and intelligence community to question that person as to what they know about enemy activity?" Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said.

"They should not be read their Miranda Rights. They should not be given a lawyer," Graham said. "They should be held humanely in military custody and interrogated about why they joined al Qaeda and what they were going to do to all of us."

Seriously, fuck Lindsey Graham.

Everyone was at an Occupy Wallstreet rally when the government snunk this one through.

Yeah that's great...not a "democracy" anymore, but a fucking BATTLEFIELD.

Are these elites really that stupid?
We, the working class are the buffer zone between them and the unwashed savages who would bust into their gated communities, kill their body guards, loot the place, fuck their daughters and eat their pets.

If they want to start rounding up ANYBODY they label a "terrist", snatching them from their beds in the middle of the night and sneaking them into secret jails over nothing....go ahead and be my fucking guest: I already know where this is going.


America and it's annexed state of Canada is gonna be a shithole banana republic in no time.

Horsedick.

I often contemplate leaving this country before things get "bad"...but then I wonder, where would I go? At the end of the day, is there a better place than the usa? Each country has pros and cons.

Ugh, terribly executed plan. Essentially paying a mobster for "insurance".

I still remember when we (Louisiana) were the only state where the minimum drinking age was 18. Right up until 1995. Then about a year later it was raised to 21, lowered for three months back to 18, and then up to 21 again. Can you imagine how much that would've sucked if you were 18 in 95?
