Outcry after military veteran detained for anti-government Facebook posts [VIDEO]
A former Marine involuntarily detained for psychiatric evaluation for posting strident anti-government messages on Facebook has received an outpouring of support from people who say authorities are trampling on his First Amendment rights.
Brandon J. Raub, 26, has been in custody since FBI, Secret Service agents and police in Virginia’s Chesterfield County questioned him Thursday evening about what they said were ominous posts talking about a coming revolution. In one message earlier this month according to authorities, Raub wrote: “Sharpen my axe; I’m here to sever heads.”
Police — acting under a state law that allows emergency, temporary psychiatric commitments upon the recommendation of a mental health professional — took Raub to the John Randolph Medical Center in Hopewell. He was not charged with any crime.
A Virginia-based civil liberties group, The Rutherford Institute, dispatched one of its attorneys to the hospital to represent Raub at a hearing Monday. A judge ordered Raub detained for another month, Rutherford executive director John Whitehead said.
“For government officials to not only arrest Brandon Raub for doing nothing more than exercising his First Amendment rights but to actually force him to undergo psychological evaluations and detain him against his will goes against every constitutional principle this country was founded upon,” Whitehead said.
Raub’s mother, Cathleen Thomas, said by telephone that the government had overstepped its bounds.

Not surprising at all.

You only get to “Question Authority” when Democrats are not in the White House. Then its the highest form of patriotism.
Sounds the The American Cowboy Elimination Act.

Better disconnect yourself from the Internet and smash your computer.
Ordinary political institutions; i.e. elections will no longer correct these abuses. Organize get leaders! I still think that there is a possibility that the negro community organizer from Chicago will suspend the coming elections.
“We will PROVE we are not a Police State... by arresting anyone who accuses us of being a Police State.”
Makes sense.
Well, if I’m arrested for speaking (typing) my mind and beliefs, I daresay I will be quite proud of myself.
It’s all part of the leftist scheme to undermine the second amendment by defining as many of our citizens as possible as incapacitated so they can have reasonable cause to confiscate their weapons.
There are four lights.
I would thinks this just rubbish ‘talk’ except I deeply respect the Rutherford Institute & Constitutional Attorney John Whitehead
This is why I don’t post on Facebook (see my tagline).
As for arresting those with anti-regime and anti-half breed, most of us on FR should expect a visit.
I think Obama’s minions are capable of all sorts of evil but I don’t buy this. I would believe they target conservatives with the IRS and possibly pass up conservatives for promotions, etc. but “re-education camps” seem beyond the pale. You would think family members would speak up.
If shillary can expose our country to national security emails and such, then obuma should leave the country while he still can...
You can only put so much pressure on something before it blows up and this country is just about to do that...and it doesn’t matter how many ‘cops’ there are, or how many of obuma’s muslim brotherhood armies there are, there are more citizens with guns and ammo....don’t temp the ‘viper’ it will come back and take you out....
I've been a 'dissenter' to what the 'gooberment' has been up to for a long time. I'm also a vet. My question is, when are these jackwagons going to get around to little old me?
the infowarrior
Bet Sheriff Arpio gets taged with that soon.
