“Ron Paul loves this country more than he loves himself”

It’s so sad to see the direction the United States is heading. Have we forgotten all that we and our fathers before us have fought to build and maintain for hundreds of years? Why are we willing to let it all go?

“A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor and bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government.” - Thomas Jefferson

“Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both.” - Benjamin Franklin

“Yes, we did produce a near perfect republic. But will they keep it?” - Thomas Jefferson

“A free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government.” - George Washington

“Government’s first duty is to protect the people, not run their lives” - Ronald Reagan

“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.” - Ronald Reagan

You can be declared a terrorist at any time. Executive orders and laws have been signed in that allows our government to seize control of this nation and make it a police state. Martial law can be delacred at any time for any reason. We have been betrayed by our government, and it’s so sad to see this happen.

England is continuing their progress towards a police state. First they regulate anything and everything that can be done, now they’re going to start stopping people in the streets at any time they feel and demanding their ID. If you refuse, you can be jailed.

This was something previously reserved for war times, but now police can stop you at any time without suspicion that you have committed a crime and demand your ID. They have been given the power to determine if you are allowed to be in an area, and possibly revoke your permission to be in the area.

This is just another thing in a long string of ridiculous laws that this nanny state has enacted. We’ve seen what England may likely end up like by watching V For Vendetta. The state controls you. The state decides what is good for you, and for the glory of the country. You do not have personal rights, your rights are surrendered to the state.

Don’t let our country turn out like this. I know it’s going to be hard to prevent this, I know we’re moving closer and closer every day. There are even police who think they are allowed to require your ID at any time. Please stand up for your rights! Please don’t let this happen to us!

Nevermind the Posse Comitatus Act that prohibits the government from using military troops for law enforcement, the Pentagon is set to deploy 20,000 troops on US soil to “help state and local officials respond to a nuclear terrorist attack or other domestic catastrophe,” according to Pentagon officials.

The Posse Comitatus Act is a United States federal law (18 U.S.C. § 1385) passed on June 16, 1878 after the end of Reconstruction. The Act prohibits most members of the federal uniformed services from exercising nominally state law enforcement, police, or peace officer powers that maintain “law and order” on non-federal property (states and their counties and municipal divisions) in the former Confederate states.

US troops should not be used for law enforcement. This is just another bit if information in a long string of executive orders and acts carried out by this government to prepare us for a police state. Oh sure now I sound like a crazy person, but I won’t seem so crazy when it’s actually happening. I’d rather seem crazy and be right, than be oblivious to it like most of America and just let it happen. Let them take our freedoms away, let them have control over us.

They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.
Benjamin Franklin
