Our police state, Is it ours? Do we as a group of people, a community claim or admit that we have such a thing? Or does any police state that may exist apply to everyone? I think there lies the problem. Humanity as a whole, don't claim a police state, or any set tyranny. Sure, we may gripe about this or that, but if someone, a single person falls into the reciving end of a police state, at best, others will say "oh, that's too bad" and go on about their life thinking "glad that wasn't me" worst cases include for those who survive being on the reciving end, being seen as a lowlife criminal, because if the police say they are bad, they must be, right? and, maybe they have records that follow them and interfear with their life years after.
This is only my take and I don't have a answer to what we should do as a whole. Something I have done is try to bring light to things that may or may not be considered bad enough to qualify. For my efforts, I have been banned from places where those running things don't want to hear it or allow it. Soon to be OCDO I would imagine. Many don't want to hear about how bad things are. Much of the things that some would argue shouldn't be discussed here tie into things that do reflect on Open carry, handguns, ect. So in that fashon, those who impose a critical stance contribute to the tyranny or police state. Members, and moderators alike.
A few like Ron Paul, Alex Jones, Mike Adams, and more, are holding the door back to some extent. But the forces on the other side of that door are massive enough that we need more. So I do what I can, I have been called a mission poster like it's a bad thing, I guess it depends on how you see it. If I'm wrong in what I find, experance and expose, that would be great, I'll take the tin foil comments and what ever comes my way, If I'm right, then at least those who laughed, and shot me down can't say they hadn't been warned. That's how I see it. But again, my time here is going to be short, I have already been targeted by a mod, and have been by a few members for a while. Only thing left to sat far as that is, Just remember where you heard it.
