ATTENTION PREPPERS. Imagine this scenario.
Snowden has said that they are not only scooping up phone records but are also data mining internet use, bank accounts, and credit card use.
Now take your average concerned citizen who is worried about the direction this country is headed and decides to prep. Concerned citizen reads blogs and websites on how to prep. Concerned citizen removes money from checking account or uses charge card to purchase preps which includes freeze dried and bulk foods.
Concerned citizen is now high on the government radar after said government data mines all of his preps. Why you may ask? Because a while ago, by Executive Order, Obama made it a crime to hoard food.
Concerned citizen has just been made a target for law enforcement because of two UNCONSTITUTIONAL acts of government violating the Fourth Amendment.
“They threw out a big word...Treason.”
Silver lining is, the Dumb-as-craps finally discovered a concept known as “Treason.”
With help from their mascots McCain and Lindsey, they’ll abuse that label, but at least they acknowledge it exists.
Monitor every mosque in the world and the problem is solved.
You hit the nail RIGHT on the head!!
As soon as obama took office, he announced that the war on terror is over, right? He meant the U.S.’s war against radical Islamists.
THEN, the DHS re-defined who dangerous ‘terrorist threats’ were - AMERICAN citizens: who believe in God, go to church, own guns, listen to talk radio.. Conservatives.
So when the government agencies like the IRS and NSA do this crap AGAINST American citizens, they are actually following our governments instructions: Fighting ‘terrorism’.
Which also benefits the regime politically since the ‘new’ terrorist threats are ALL the folks who won’t vote democrat.
This is it plain and simple.
I think we need the 21st century equivalent of shunning.
Identify terrorist nations - Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Somalia, Pakistan, Afganistan - and proclaim that if you have a passport from one of them or a passport stamp that shows you were there, you can no longer visit western countries.
No coming here for medical treatments, schooling, or even vacation. Start with a five or ten year shunning and force them to stay in the shitholes that they have created. If they clean out their own rats nest destroying the terrorists they are breeding and show they can act civilised, then we might allow them back in civilised society. It sure would be a lot cheaper than the way we are currently dealing with them.
bump to read later.
One of many acts of treason he has committed.
Of course, we all know where Feinstein is coming from, and the dark, evil nature of her mindset. The differences between her ilk and the productive, decent citizens of the USA are not reconcilable.
Supposedly, our government is one of the people, for the people, and by the people. We elect people to represent the groups of citizens in our districts in the US House; we elect other people to represent our states in the US Senate. Theoretically, we elect a person to preside over our executive branch of government.
Given this, the people, the citizens, are the employers at the highest level.
The state governments, also hired by the people, are the next level of employer over the federal employees.
And the people in the federal government are the lowest level of employees under "We The People".
That's the contract. And it has been breached more or less from the beginning, but never so blatantly as with this current bunch.
The federal government waging war against the people of the USA, even if it is just a cold war of surveillance, is the highest form of treason.
While they call for the extradition of Snowden, I call for the impeachment of Hussein Obama.
.........absolutely!! I would trust Obama, Biden, Axelrod, Pelosi, Reid, Feinstein, Maxine, McCain, McDermott et al about the same day and the same hour I would trust a convicted child molestor to baby sit my 4 year old grand-daughter!
Here’s JUST ONE illustration why. I read somewhere today, I think FR, that WHAT IF our rubber spined Chief Justice called a whorehouse in the middle of the night, or called a gay buddy, or something about adoption............Zero and his pals would know that in a flash! Hmmm.......WHAT IF this is why Roberts flipped on Obamacare? The same logic goes for Senators and Represenatives. A drunk Senator or Rep calls/text’s his girlfriend, the marxists in the White House would know about it and WOULD control their vote! So, NSA, taken to the extreme, and in the hands of marxist alinskyites like the group I named, could absolutely control this government. Is this why scores of lawsuits designed to get at the eligibility truth are all kicked out for “no standing”. This is the most frightening thing I have ever seen in all my decades in this country. Snowden is a mini George Washington for standing up to the cabal of criminals running this country right now.
What exactly has Mr. Snowden done other than blow the whistle on the renegade 0bama regime? How is that treason? I’d be honored to shake his hand! He’s a Patriot!
“If he were tried what are the odds that 12 jurors would UNANIMOUSLY vote guilty?”
What are the odds that the NSA wouldn’t have something on 12 jurors?
+1
All good points and don’t think for one minute this regime would not use information to blackmail people.
>>I applaud Snowden for an act of Patriotism<<
Damn, I’m thankful that this came out finally.
Agreed.
Close the borders.
Kick out the bad guys.
Keep them out.
Obviously the technology exists but not the will to do it.
I believe the qualifications are being a federal employee while black
All those quick to call this guy a traitor love to paper over the FACT that NSA was spying on US... AMERICAN CITIZENS!!! Just like the refusal to profile in the airports and grabbing Granny’s crotch and three year olds... they have used 911 as an excuse to decimate our rights and liberty. Screw them all they are the traitors. We are a government BY THE PEOPLE and FOR THE PEOPLE...not for the spooks.
