Or is that 'dangerous president'?
Today, the US Government executed a US Citizen without a trial, tribunal, or finding of fact about his actual guilt. We are no longer a nation of laws. A precedent has been set, and we are at the edge of the abyss.
To be clear, I detest everything that Anwar al Awlaki (or whatever his name is) stood for. But, until he either renounces his citizenship and/or fights on the field of battle against us (or is arrested, tried, and found guilty of treason), he is a citizen with rights. Merely declaring him a "terrorist" is not sufficient justification to execute him.
Hell, by the terms of the current rules of engagement, I am a terrorist. (see DHS/Fusion report on 'domestic terrorists') Because, you see, I believe we are still a constitutional republic. I believe that Socialism is incompatible with Liberty. I believe in the Almighty God and his dominion. I believe in free will. I believe that I have the right to arms to protect my life and my property from all enemies foreign and domestic. And, I might even vote for Ron Paul.
How long until some dweeb sitting at the control console of his drone decides to drop a Hellfire missile on my ass? Or yours? Do you even care? Or, is party more important than principle?

Nothing Crazy Yesterday
So, today, I point and laugh.
OK?
Let's get serious for a second. I didn't link to the stories yesterday that were the source of my post. Not because I didn't find them plausible (because in most things, there is some truth), but because I found enough plausibility in them to do some research of my own. We are admonished to do our own research, even the Bible tells us to do so (Acts 17:11).
False-flag operations are used by the opposition to detect the state of our readiness. They are also used to discredit our responses, and successful ones are used as jumping-off points for live ops against us. Be cautious in your actions, and test all things to determine the truth for yourself.
There is a war coming. The battle lines are being drawn as we speak. Ayn Rand and George Orwell were prescient. Until and unless we the citizens resolve to stand fast against the serial theft of our Liberty and our Wealth, "they" will succeed. Their actions to-date come from malice, not incompetency. It is not lack of understanding about the mechanisms of economics, rather it is a complete understanding of the sources of power.
I leave it to the readers to define for themselves whom "they" are. Understand this, however: "they" are playing for real and for keeps. Are you?

First they came for my...
Billy Beck puts a fine point on it.
Selective enforcement of arcane and difficult-to-understand laws (or laws from another country entirely), to appease supporters and punish opponents, is the crowning hallmark of tyrannical government. The government that is big enough to give you what you want, is big enough to take anything they can from you. A government which reaches into personal social preference, rather than ensuring personal Liberty, is a government ripe for abuse by those in power and will be used eventually to oppress the people.
Those of you on the right who want to push the Gay and Drug and Marriage issues, and those of you on the left who want to push the Gay and Environmental and Welfare issues, have now gotten the government that you asked for. And brothers and sisters, you asked for it.

QOTD: Security Theater
Over at Volokh, there is a thread relating to TSA Security Theater. In the comments (always a good read at Volokh), is this gem from "SG":
Newbius
My preferred screening policy for Islamic terrorists is to put out a plate of bacon. Anyone who takes a piece can go through without further hassle. Anyone who passes up the bacon gets extra screening. It’s win-win — the Islamists self-identify and everybody else gets free bacon.Can I get an "Amen!"?
I realize it will raise some false positives with vegetarians, but I figure that’s OK — I don’t trust those folks either.

Why the Unions are so upset in Wisconsin
Forget collective bargaining. Forget the concessions on health care and pensions. The real issue that infuriated the unions (and their bought-and-paid-for Democratic Party puppets) is mandatory dues collection.
Wisconsin is not a 'right to work' state. Not yet, anyway. So, if the shop is unionized (and all of the public employees are), then the members have to join and the state was collecting the union dues through payroll withholding.
Now, each union member has to write that check themselves. Dues average $700-$1000 per year. There are 215,000 unionized public employees in Wisconsin. So, let's do the math:
215,000 x $700 is $150,500,000. 215,000 x $1,000 is $215,000,000.
$150-$215 million dollars, being paid by the taxpayers of Wisconsin, through their public employees, directly to the unions; who then spend that money to elect Democratic PartypoltroonsPoliticians; who then pay back their union masters with more largess from the public treasury. It is a never-ending cycle of thievery and corruption. A money-laundering game which pits the public employee unions and the Democratic Party against the working people of Wisconsin, taking the people's money to line their own pockets and secure their power.
Now you know why the Left is declaring war. Their gravy train just got derailed by a politician who actually did what he said he was going to do. Their lies have been exposed. They are not about the 'working man' and never have been. They are about money and power, and they use the 'working man' as both a stage prop and donor host to their parasitism. No longer. The mask has been pulled off, loudly and publicly for all to see. And, the Community Organizer-in-Chief has been exposed, encouraging them in their actions.
Top down, Bottom up...manufacturing a crisis so as not to let it go to waste.
Do you understand yet?

Public Employee Unions
I do not like them. I do not like the fact that they donate to (exclusively Democrat) politicians who promise to continue the forced extraction of the dues which feed them. I do not like that they are Marxist organizations trying to destroy our country.
I especially dislike the fact that public employees have guaranteed benefits and pensions which are generally better than private sector plans, and for which they pay little or nothing towards.
If you threaten their gravy train, then they strike, busing in thousands of fellow travelers and getting violent. The "Purple People Beater" moniker is applied to SEIU thugs for good reason. They, and their cohorts in AFSME and other public-employee unions, view you, the taxpayer, as a wage slave. If you fail to continue their pay, perks, and benefits in the manner that they have become accustomed to, they will riot and beat you. They are your masters. Just ask them.
Do you see this yet? Have you had enough yet?
Disband them. Disband them all. Let them try to market their 'skills' in the private sector like the rest of us. Survive, or die, bitches!

Drudge and Others ignore a scandal
Maybe Matt Drudge has gotten lazy in his success. Maybe he no longer cares to be on the cutting edge of journalism. Maybe the murder of Border Patrol agent Brian Terry late last year wasn't scandalous enough. Well, it is now. And Drudge is ignoring it.
Searching the Drudge Archives for "Brian Terry", I get "0 results". Great work, there, Matt!
Oh, and ditto for HotAir and Breitbart.
Michelle Malkin has not covered anything other than the original murder, so it appears that she is not aware of the ATF's complicity in the case. I have pinged all of these "journalists" via twitter and email. And I have directed them to the user-friendly guide at Examiner.com.
We need to keep up the pressure. Do your part please. Contact your Congressman and Senators (see my guide to HOW, below). This is our country, not the apparatchik's and bureaucrat's.
Pax,

Civil unrest in the Middle East
I have seen a lot of the 'what' about Tunisia and Egypt and elsewhere, but never the 'why'. Except for Denninger, nobody is reporting the things that these places have in common. Namely, they are ostensibly supported by the United States, have their currencies pegged to the Dollar, have Radical Islamists waiting in the wings to take over, and their peoples are starving.
These people are not rioting in order to get their Twitter and Facebook turned back on. They are rioting because the BILLIONS that we send over there in aid goes to line the pockets of the dictators in power, little people be-damned.
With our own manufacturing base devastated, it appears that the number one export from America nowadays is inflation.
Got preps?

The One Thing They Have In Common
There is a STORY on FoxNews.com about a recent rash of shootings where the targets were officers. 11 officers have been shot in the last 24 hours.
Mr. Roberts, your union is affiliated with the AFL-CIO, whose stance on firearms is "disarmament of the citizenry". As the last 24 hours have shown, you are outnumbered by the criminals, and they have nothing to lose. Wouldn't it make sense for your member police chiefs to, instead, drop their authoritarian stance and embrace having the citizens available to defend your officers? I ask, because there is a perception among the citizenry that your officers have been waging war on us for decades now, civil rights be-damned.
Every response by law enforcement to criminal misuse, by long-established criminals, is to clamp down on the non-criminals in an effort to do something. It is way past time for this to change. Because, while the criminals have you outnumbered, we--the law-abiding-- have THEM outnumbered. And, you could use us as allies instead of treating us as adversaries.

"It's not a fluke," Richard Roberts, a spokesman for the International Union of Police Associations, told MSNBC.com. "There's a perception among officers in the field that there’s a war on cops going on."No kidding? I've got news for you, Mr. Union Rep, the things that these criminals all have in common are: Long histories of criminal violence, Not in jail due to lenient parole boards and a revolving-door "justice" system, and Felony Possession of a gun which was illegally acquired (and which they are constitutionally protected from having to disclose, if asked).ETA: And, since they are criminals, by definition they are trying to thwart authority, you dimwit.
...While all the shootings don’t appear to be connected, Roberts says they have one thing in common.
"We don't have any data, but there seems to be a type of criminal out there looking to thwart authority,"

What's Need Got To Do With It?
Senator Lautenberg (T*-NJ) and Representative McCarthy (T*-NY), are teaming up with anti-civil-rights activists to impose more restrictions on our 2A rights. The common theme is "You don't need a 30-round clip (sic) to go hunting".
Well, Rep. McCarthy, nobody NEEDS a geriatric, vapid, shrill, opportunistic, and intellectually lazy person representing them in Congress, either. But, your district keeps sending you back anyway, as is their RIGHT to do (even if I disagree with their choice). "Need" has nothing to do with it. If you were capable of rubbing two brain cells together to form a complete thought (or had actually read the document that you took an oath to uphold), you would know this.
For argument's sake, let's instead suggest that a group of 30 people "of color" gathered together, exercised in inflammatory rhetoric that resulted in property getting damaged and people getting hurt, and they used personal property to advance their crimes. Would you then suggest that we should infringe on the 13th Amendment regarding "people of color"? Or infringe upon the 1st Amendment Freedom to Associate and Freedom of Speech? Would you recommend that we further infringe on the 4th Amendment and take their "criminal property" without Due Process? Would you?
Once upon a time in America, bigots banded together to suppress "niggers". The KKK did heinous things to people because they were different. Today, gun owners are the new "nigger"**. And, like before, the Democratic Party is the primary political cover that allowsThe New KKK Gun Control Advocates a platform for spewing their hateful ideas. Being Anti-Freedom, it is what makes the Democratic Party tick.

I AM TJIC
The State of Massachusetts is "May Issue" for gun permits. Not "carry" permits. Gun permits. They have discretion on whom may be granted the privilege to exercise their rights, and that privilege is arbitrarily enforced. If you are favored, connected, or squeaky-clean, you *MIGHT* be granted dispensation to own and carry a weapon. If not, too bad.
If you happen to be outspoken, or say something deemed intolerant (or happen to be a minority, or gay, or someone from the wrong political party), your privilege to exercise your rights can be revoked without cause. Like they did to TJIC. The revocation of the license means that the firearms must be disposed of, or the
TJIC's crime was to say out loud what most of us state privately. Namely, that the idiots in Congress are enemies of the people and the best of them are oxygen thieves. Tarring and Feathering was once the preferred method of dealing with traitorous politicians, at least those who didn't hang from a tree as a warning to the others. Nowadays, we have polls and focus groups and town hall meetings and nothing changes. Macabre humor, saying "one down, 534 to go" used to be a relief valve, and an opportunistic way to telegraph the message without any threats of violence.
Stating the obvious, that The People are fed up (excuse the pun) with business as usual in DC, and that the way things are going may just spark civil war, used to be valid discourse, even if it is incendiary. The purpose of the First Amendment is NOT so that people can advocate for Skittles and rainbow unicorns, it is so that the most heinous things can be said without fear of reprisal, in order to PREVENT more serious actions.
Redress of Grievances is Constitutionally protected. Losing your Second Amendment rights for exercising your First Amendment rights is across the line. It is a shame that there are no more Patriots left in the cradle of freedom to protest like it was 1775. What was once a creche is now a crypt.

Dear Airline Industry
You have lost me as a customer.
Just as I am entering into the years of my life where I planned to do a lot of travel, you enabled the thugs of TSA to completely and forever alter the relationship with your customers. Now, instead of responding to the millions of advertising dollars that you spend every year by purchasing a seat on the "friendly skies", I will travel by car.
The revenue that you hoped to see during the holidays? It will instead be spent at a string of Exxon, Texaco, and Unocal stations from sea to shining sea. Do not expect me to be helping you pay off your 777's and 787's any time soon.
In order for me to fly on your airline, I must:
Endure the indignity of shoe checks, naked scans, or groin gropes.
Leave my toiletries at home.
Leave my pocket knife at home.
Leave my handgun at home (because if it doesn't get damaged in-transit, your baggage handlers will steal it).
Arrive several hours in advance of my flight, get hassled by rejects from rent-a-cop school, get questioned about my destination, purpose for traveling, length of stay, and desire to remain a sane citizen (Papers, please!).
Be willing to submit to indignities under penalty of excessive fines without ability to appeal.
For the pleasure of enduring all of the above, I have to pay you, and pay extra if I wish to bring more than two changes of clothes.
No thanks.
You (the airline industry) are clamoring for the government to make you feel safe, while trampling the liberty of the citizenry. Too bad. I refuse to play any longer.
In the near future, I am embarking on a round-trip journey across the country, from Virginia to California and back. All-told, this could have generated a couple of thousand dollars of ticket sales for you, as I intend to stop in Tennessee, Arizona, Colorado, and Kansas along the way. Instead, I will take the lesson that you are trying to teach me to heart. Namely, you value your alleged security more than you value my liberty or my custom. So, I am taking away my custom and keeping my Liberty.
In opting out, you will lose my revenue, as you have lost my willingness to be subject to arbitrary rules without logical purpose (except to teach me subjugation). My schedule can tolerate a few extra days devoted to travel. Can your profit margin tolerate people like me boycotting your services? If so, how many, and for how long?
The traveling public wishes to know.
The traveling public is waiting for the Airline Transport Association to decide that the pendulum has swung too far. The public is waiting to see what breaks first: your industry, or the TSA. I am betting the former. The bureaucracy has finally gotten what it has always wanted: Carte-Blanche to inspect and detain citizens at-will, and without cause; and you are the smokescreen.
When the last airline is destroyed, sacrificed upon the altar of the Security god, don't whine that you "didn't know". You are all hoping to be the last one standing, to receive the final bailout and nationalization. In truth, the TSA parasite has already killed the Airline Industry host. All that remains to be seen are the agonizing throes of your demise.
I'll be the one with the popcorn.

Opt Out, Part Deux
According to TSA'a guidelines, if you opt out, you can be subject to CIVIL penalty of up to $10,000 per violation. The procedure, outlined here, lays out the prosecution guidelines. Please note that at no point is the alleged violator given the option of a jury trial. Also, the alleged violator is accused, convicted, and assessed, with final disposition (if disputed) subject to the ruling of an Administrative Law Judge.
I have one word for this procedure: Unconstitutional.
Whether or not you agree that the act of purchasing a plane ticket waives your 4th and 5th Amendment rights, the fact that the penalties are civil in nature strikes me as an attempt to defuse the core constitutional question regarding the right to a jury trial. Since the attempted fine to be exacted exceeds the sum of $20.00, (it is $10,000 per alleged violation), the denial of the right to a jury trial under both Article 3 Section 2 AND the 7th Amendment strikes me as ripe for challenge.
What say you?

TSA Turnabout
I suggest that all travelers bring their carry-on with a spare change of clothes in it. Upon arrival at the airport, and while still outside of the checkpoint, strip down to bikini, or speedo, and flip-flops (Kerrys). Then, once through security, get dressed. Lather, rinse, repeat.
Makes no never-mind if you are Giselle Bundschen, or Rosie O'Donnell, or Borat or Gerard Depardieu. Give them what they want. Give them the full measure of forcing the humiliation back onto THEM, and proudly show them that they are perverts and molesters and thugs.
If some TSA/JBT insists upon touching you while you are nearly-naked, protest and file a 1983 complaint and include Big Sis in the pleading...maybe she will get the message.
I am positive that if enough people do this, the regulations will get changed.

Opt out
Yes, Opt out. There are many reports going around the 'net these days about the TSA Security Theater, and about how 'opt-outs' now get treated to a pat-down instead. Folks, this is an attempt at gradually conditioning you to accept government intrusion into everything you do.
Never mind the fact that they are lying to you about how "this is always what we have done". Enough people travel regularly to know that this is not true, yet many more only travel infrequently and just accept it at face value.
I choose not to play at all.
Until TSA is abolished, and these intrusive security scans are removed, I will not fly commercially. Period. They can all go pound sand. There is nothing that I need to get to that is so critical that I cannot drive. This includes visiting my ailing grandmother in Arizona, and a likely funeral in California within the next few months. California is 2600 miles away. Round trip airfare right now is about $260 per person. Gasoline, round trip, is about$300 $600 and I will have a car when I get there. If I have to stay at a couple of fleabag motels on the way, it might cost me an extra $100. So be it. As long as the airlines agree to provide the trains to the gas chambers vehicle for expanding tyranny in my life, I will refuse to play.
You cannot compel me to voluntarily waive my rights. You cannot compel me to purchase goods and services. I will not play. You will have to use force, as that is your ultimate argument. And, when it comes down to that, the distilled essence of your nature, I will respond in kind.

Never mind the fact that they are lying to you about how "this is always what we have done". Enough people travel regularly to know that this is not true, yet many more only travel infrequently and just accept it at face value.
I choose not to play at all.
Until TSA is abolished, and these intrusive security scans are removed, I will not fly commercially. Period. They can all go pound sand.

Denninger calls for...what?
If you have not figured it out yet, the Federal Reserve (a private consortium of the world's largest banks) has stolen America's wealth. Karl Denninger has been laying it out for years and the People have done exactly nothing about it.
Now, Denninger lays out exactly what the final outcome will be. He doesn't say it, but he hints at the fact that it is decision time for the people. The bones of this turkey are almost stripped clean. When the last of your wealth is gone; when your assets have been stolen by the banking consortium with the full cooperation of the political class; when there is nothing left to the citizens; what will YOU do?
I want to know why Bernanke is not in jail right now. I want to know how he is able to inflate the currency through monetizing the debt. I want to know why you people aren't mad.
The treasonous assault on America's wealth by the Fed and the Banking system, through asset stripping and outright FRAUD should constitute a Fort Sumpter moment. It is too bad that we, the people, are still asleep.
Go and Read This, and THIS. Then do something about it.

I had a very strange dream
I cannot describe the events, but the images were pretty vivid.
The images were Steve Gibson, Angelo Mozilo, Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Yassir Afifi, John Allen Muhammad, Lee Boyd Malvo, and Nemesis (Adrasteia).
Like I said, strange. I wonder if there is a message in there somewhere. I am not sure I want to find out...

Blood in the streets?
That is always the rallying cry of the gun grabbers. That failure to restrict gun rights will result in "blood in the streets". Thankfully, history proves them wrong time after time.
So why bring it up?
Well, because the other time there is blood in the streets is when there is massive civil unrest. The last time it happened with any regularity was when the radicals from the 1960s tried to overthrow the capitalist, republican, form of government in order to institute a Marxist socialist state. They failed then.
Now, those same 1960s radicals are the ones in power. They are usurping the levers of power in the US in order to institute a Marxist socialist state. Now, the radicals are the ones who want to roll back Leviathan and re-institute a capitalist, republican, form of government.
Since the socialists control the power structure, and also the means to count the vote totals in the upcoming election, I expect that there will be shock and disbelief at the reported outcome of the elections. Because there will be a cognitive disconnect with what the voters did, and what the states report. I fully expect that the massive voter fraud, voter intimidation, "found ballots", and reported vote totals exceeding actual registered voters in the precincts to be the catalyst for something that the elites will not have anticipated.
Blood in the streets.
All of the recent polling suggests that the drubbing that the Democratic Party is going to take will be epic in proportion. Yet, the people like ObeyMe, Pelosi, and Reid act as if there is nothing to fear. They act like they have it covered. They act as if the results are already pre-ordered for a specific outcome. They act like guys like Rasmussen don't know what they are talking about. They act like they have rigged the game. In the same way that Stalin rigged the game.
Look, I am not advocating that anybody take up arms on November 3rd. Far from it. I caution against it, and only advocate defensive use. But, our nation has been stolen from us, and someone is going to be pissed off on 11/3 when the frauds come to light. Be ready.
