Replying to you and the others who took note of that...
It jumped out at me also. The poster has a point, at least as far as the PTB go. We *are* supposed to be trained, because that's what a police state does, drives its diktats home in any number of ways. Learn passively, and all will be well, comrade.
This particular comment about the photography brought back certain chilling childhood memories from lengthy visits to relatives who lived behind the iron curtain. Amazing we could even do that but in any case,
One of the conditions of their monitored existence was that photography was verboten at train/bus stations, airports, government buildings (obviously a lot of those), schools, and anywhere else the commies had their infrastructure. So no pics of military or police anything. Warning signs were posted prominently at train stations and such.
Oh sure, we could take photos around tourist areas, or in open spaces where presumably noone was watching, but we had to assume that we were being watched for violations.
The contrast to the freedoms we had in America was stark. The oppression was palpable and not something I could easily wrap my mind around. I just knew intuitively that is was very very bad. A dark place. The photography issue is merely one example. There are many more.
Naturally the government didn't want photographic evidence of their utopia getting to the West, but more than that they needed to make people fear so the fearful would edit their own behavior automatically. Kept 'em in line without much work.
But... this guy’s wife is a doctor and he doesn’t know enough post 9 11 not to go around taking pix of buildings.
It’s something we’re trained to not do.
All buildings pretty much covers it, just to be safe of course and not trigger an unpleasant incident such as this fellow endured.
This regime has completed the transformation of America into... that place I described above. Only it's worse, because there's enough bread and circuses and clean air and internet freedom to hide the change from the self-absorbed. And then there are those who have been dumbed down and brainwashed into embracing bondage.
I believe that the God of Abraham has reserved remnant who will have the honor of rebuilding the real America. Don't know when or where, but the real America can't be killed off. She's free. There's something in her nature that Obama and his filthy ilk can't get to, destroy, or take away, try as they might. They know that, and it enrages them.

I hope you are right.
Amen. I believe in the remnant too.
Well stated.
I Comend your Spirit. Your conclusion was quite an inspiration.
as per the photography....oh the stories I could tell.
One notable tale is my being waved off from making a few photographs of collectable cars in a parking lot. The lot was visible from the street and sidewalk where I remained to make said images. The Management of the car dealer to which the lot belonged explained that If Id wanted to “take pictures” I should have ASKED first. Imagine.
Thanks!!
I WILL be taking picture of anything I want to...unless I know them to be places I should not.
Ezekiel. Love your comments. Your last comments were interesting, in that the US may play a role in the end times perhaps.
Many apologists have noted that beside the line in Revelation about fire raining down on the lands of the coasts, there isn’t much mention of the most powerful nation ever to establish itself upon the Earth.
Your handle is sort of ironic, in that in the later part of Ezekiel is mentioned a war during the times of the great unwalled cities. The armies of the north will come down to Israel to take a great spoil.
It doesn’t say that other nations comes to the aid of Israel. It says that the angels of the Lord will come to her defense.
I think we disappear as a nation. Utterly and finally. We are a non-factor. I used to wonder how that could be, but I don’t any more. It’s pretty clear to me how all that could happen now. People wondered how any nation could withstand France after WWI. The consensus was that they were a superpower - the most powerful professional army in Europe.
It took the Germans 9 days to drive through France and pin the British Expeditionary Forces back against the sea. At the time, it was the British who provided enough resistance to buy the time for the extraction that occurred that ultimately saved the UK.
God has always provided for Israel, and He will again. It’s always the smallest, the weakest, the most disadvantaged that end up prevailing against massive odds with the help of the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
May he have mercy on the United States as we turn our to His people Israel.
