Tennessee begins to push back against NDAA tyranny
Tennessee, the Volunteer State, has begun to push back against the tyranny that is the indefinite detention provisions contained in the
National Defense Authorization Act of Fiscal Year 2012, better known simply as the NDAA.
The state bills currently being considered could be one of the most significant steps taken against the atrocious assault on our most essential liberties embodied by the indefinite detention provisions of the NDAA.
The Tenth Amendment Center (TAC), a group promoting state’s rights (something which I think is an honorable cause in these dire times in which we have an increasingly centralized, authoritarian federal government) reports that two bills are to be considered in the Tennessee legislature.
These include HB1629 and SB2669, both of which are set to be considered in the 2012 session.
The legislation could essentially nullify the troubling indefinite detention provisions in the NDAA by requiring federal agents to obtain written permission from the county sheriff before making any arrests in Tennessee for any reason.
So long as county sheriffs are actually doing their job and keeping people safe from an out of control federal government, this could be a major step forward.

The fact is, as it currently stands, there is absolutely nothing limiting or prohibiting the indefinite detention of American citizens without charge or trial.
Indeed, the only thing the indefinite detention provisions say on the matter is that American citizens are not required to be held indefinitely if suspected to be terrorists.
There is absolutely no language saying that they are not allowed to do such a thing and no supporter has ever been able to counter that.

What, no threat from anti-business-extremists upset over taxes/income levels, hatred of law enforcement and symbols of America (US flags) (no shortage of photos available via internet of extremists defacating on law enforcement vehicles and flag burning)?
