They are just taking their cues from the leading sponsor of terrorism and tyranny, the US government. something about congress has to pass laws before they are allowed to see what the laws are, or terrorists win and somesuch nonsense.
Someone should probably make a list of what constitutional rights Americans have not lost at this point. By that I mean any rights the government has not chosen to ignore at any time in the last 30 years.
Today it is Muslims tomorrow it is Christians. This springs to mind that infamous quote about who the Nazis came for. save exchange "they came for" with "spied on".
I say Christians because they are considered a threat according to the DHS.
Will people only care when it just happens to be them that have their rights ignored.
It is a bad idea when the criminals become the ones behind the badge with zero accountability for whatever crimes they commit because of the mentality of "their police Officers, and cops never do anything wrong".
I should not have to list examples for this, but here is 1 anyway the officer who threated to "fuck Thomas Kelly up" then actually beat him to death with a few other cops. Got rehired to the police force he was fired from and has served no jail time. because him threatening to kill someone then actually beating him to death was a justified action according to the police.
Dissent is terrorism in the new Amerika. You need to be blindly loyal to the regime otherwise your labeled a possible threat to them for having the audacity to think for yourself.
Please do not ignore our rights with your biometric database, even though you ignore our rights in every other case. We realize your a corrupt government official that only cares about the people that pay you off. So we realize it is pointless to ask you not to commit crimes unless we offer a substantial bribe to go along with it.
Under the enemy expatriation act ( H.R. 3166 and S. 1698)the US government can strip a US citizen of their citizenship and their rights if they are classified as a terrorist.
So what makes a citizen a terrorist, anything and everything these days.
If you visit sites that preach dissent against any form of government misconduct congrats your a terrorist. If you protest anything peaceful or violent, your a terrorist. If you question your government over anything again your labelled a terrorist.
Just look at the NDA to see extreme examples of how "national security" trumps the constitution.
when anything and everything makes you a criminal that's when you need to overthrow the people making the laws. As your going to end up labeled a criminal no matter what at that point. Might as well try to change things for the better before it is too late.
They do what they want when they want. Anyone that stands up to them gets threatened, beaten, murdered, or just plain vanish.
Maybe it is a crime syndicate running the country instead of a totalitarian police state. I don't see any difference. The laws do not apply to the people running the country. When more people realize that, these will seem like the golden years for how calm and ordered society used to be.
