So the 0ccupiers can’t protest Mitt Romney? Go figure.
Is this for real?! Do they actually think a case would be upheld before the Supreme Court? Inconceivable.
I have relatives and friends in the Philippines
So, this then is the big result of the 2010 voter revolt? Ha! I knew it. Back in 2010 the younger guys at work were giving me no end of grief because for the first time in my life I refused to vote. Since casting my first vote way back in 1984 I finally learned, after the debacle of 2008, that Einstein was correct in saying “Doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result is the definition of insanity.” I knew that nothing would change other than the letter at the end of the name. Nothing. Guess this old man knew what he was saying... I love how the joke is on all of us.
Glenn Beck discussed this last week.
In just the past several days, the Constitution's First Amendment protections have been ignored in multiple ways. Worse, the subject has been disguised in language about "women's health," when it has been "religious freedom," and, in other instances, it has been "freedom of speech," as in the ban on Chaplains reading the Bishop's Letter, or in the case cited here.
November must be about reversing this crushing power move toward tyranny and away from individual liberty.
If Obama is re-elected he will continue to trash the Constitution and the Bill of Rights while the GOP court eunuchs say and do nothing. I fully expect a second Obama term will transform this country into a virtual police state with a state controlled media and censorship of any dissent, an end to free speech and assembly, a move to disarm the US population and a gulag where state declared “terrorists” will be interned without trial. I would further expect Obama to end free elections and become dictator much like Caesar Chavez. Perhaps our only salvation as a nation is that the US military will not go along with an Obama dictatorship and could oust him in a military coup.
Sometimes laws can backfire on lawmakers.
This will be one of those times.
Law enforcement, be they police or secret service, are not going to be willing or able to enforce this law. They will not arrest people en masse for shouting because it will needlessly take a situation from benign to dangerous.
I’m pretty sure I could find a couple hundred thousand tea partiers who would just love to get arrested for exercising what for over two hundred years has been our right. Now all we have to do is shout?
This law is an invitation to civil disobedience, and for that reason will end up rescinded or “re-interpreted”.
The US government will rue the day it passed this law.
