California Anti-Terrorism Information Center (CATIC) is now the whipping boy of our spineless civilian leadership. People on the front lines of preparedness need our support, not our blame.

And it gets worse: the ACLU is upset that protest is being investigated as a potential terrorism vector at all!

This affront to Oakland police and CATIC, both in the line of terrorist and civil unrest fire already, is inexcusable. Our best and bravest need our encouragement and support.

Gee, protestors claim they are out to shut down a United States port supplying war materials to soldiers engaged in war and the police are supposed to issue them tickets or something?

I can think of a number of other places where the bullets wouldn't have been wooden.

Analysts saw protesters at terrorists

``You can make an easy kind of a link that, if you have a protest group protesting a war where the cause that's being fought against is international terrorism, you might have terrorism at that (protest),'' said Van Winkle, of the state Justice Department. ``You can almost argue that a protest against that is a terrorist act.''

The only thing between a Totaliarian Police State and Freedom for the American People under the new "Homeland Security Laws" is the ability to NOT blur those lines. If those lines are allowed to be blurred, You all are toast, as in ovens.

Better pray someone stops this trend and fast, as the Second Amendment checks and balances on Government have already been disabled.The democrats love to label Conservative groups that disagree with their agenda as right wing domestic terror groups, hate criminals etc. You don't like the new wxyz law, you must be a terrorist, because it is for the children...

If security was the goal of Homeland Security, they would be issuing automatic weapons to American Citizens in good standing, not taking them away. You guys are in BIG trouble.
