Ärende: Growing A Police State...
=================================
GROWING A POLICE STATE
ONE TERROR ALERT AT A TIME

By: Dorothy Anne Seese

There's a way to grow a police state with full approval of the
citizens.  In fact, the people will ask for this protection.

First, create a media barrage about a terrorist threat, or several
threats, several locations, and call them "red zones" for high alert.
No one wants a true threat ignored.  However, the people have to rely
on the managed media to tell them that the threat is real, that our
military intelligence reports have been validated, and that the plans
to attack are imminent.  No one can prove a negative.  So if no
terrorists attack, it is because our forces, our government, prevented
it by huge security measures.

Never mind the fact that no terrorist attack yet has been accurately
forecast in advance, at least none that were made available to the
general public.  True terrorists attack by surprise, and if they are
broadcasting, they're broadcasting in something that calls one
building in one location by some code name that isn't going to be
recognized until it's hit.  If it's hit.

Meantime, the second step in growing the police state is to gain
public approval and acceptance of the presence of uniformed police or
military personnel, with guns, all around the "target" areas under the
high alert. Perhaps it is three, or five, or ten.  Wherever there is
an "alert" raised to red, there will be armed forces of some sort
visible.  Exactly how armed foot soldiers are going to prevent a
missile, airliner, car bomb or suicide bomber attack is not quite
clear.   We just feel better if there's someone holding a gun who is
on our side standing guard.

Very soon, we will all grow used to seeing the cammies, uniforms,
guns, dogs, and others standing guard. We are then well on our way to
accepting the police state.  We will gladly produce our papers to
prove we are true Americans, not hostile enemies going to bomb
something.  Then the government, wishing to assure us that it is
taking all the measures it can, will go one step further.

The third step is to ask all loyal, flag-waving Americans to surrender
their guns because terrorists might steal them and only bad guys need
guns, we have all those armed military, police and national guard
forces on duty. We've even invited our ally nations to send some
troops to bolster our own depleted forces, off fighting the war on
terrorism half way around the world.

After all those terror alerts have been issued, and perhaps some
"foiled" efforts that produce no real harm but incite fear among the
public at large, people begin to surrender their guns to the state.

Then it becomes law that American citizens cannot own firearms.  It's
for our own good, only bad guys have guns.

The explanation is simple.  We began by placing a few dozen armed
police and snipers around and on buildings, and Americans were safe in
"red alert" zones.   See?  The system works.  The more alerts, and non-
events, and the more military or police (doubtless both) who are
visible to the public, armed to the teeth with everything imagineable,
and we're well on our way to "securing" the American public.

With wide open borders to the South.

If you don't see it yet, we'll explain.  What is detailed above is
happening now, and it is marching toward the total abolition of the
Second Amendment:

Amendment II.

A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free
State, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be
infringed.

Since when have you heard the government call upon the loyal citizenry
to grab their guns and help keep America free?  That probably has not 
been heard since Paul Revere's famous ride.  Yet the state militias
were the ones who are specified in the Bill of Rights as being those
who are necessary to the security of a free state!

A free state with gun-wielding citizens to protect their lives and
property by lethal force is not the object of a police state or a
member of the Global Governance Village.   Our founders thought it
necessary to leave the defense of this nation, particularly on home
soil, as part of the duty of the citizenry.  Now it is solely the
privilege and prerogative of the military and local police.  No help
wanted from citizens, get back indoors.

Loyal leaders would call on the national guard to protect our southern
border here in Arizona, the open gateway for illegal aliens of all
nationalities to enter the United States with no visas, no papers, no
permission, no real identity, and leave a trail of garbage, ruined
grazing land, dead animals belonging to Arizona ranchers, and some
dead people (Americans) on their route to establishing residence in
the USA.  Of course the media photos are always of pregnant women
wanting babies born in America, another "for the children" smokescreen
for allowing the cultural dilution of the nation and heavy drains on
its natural and financial resources.  The American citizens (of
various original ethnicities) who live along that border could stop
illegal immigration, but if they try, the governor of Arizona
threatens them!   Those who protest against this travesty on justice
are castigated as radicals, hostile militias, and heartless, trigger-
happy wretches by the media here.  National media ignores the plight
of the border citizens.

In effect, the police state against action by American citizens is
already in place along Arizona's border with Mexico.

Now it's coming to New York, Washington, and a major city near you
shortly.  Wait your turn.

Whatever it takes, be certain that plans are in effect to get American
citizens, presently unaccustomed to seeing armed forces with guns
lining our streets and watching our state and federal, banking and
other commercial buildings, comfortable with the idea that police and
military in the streets, with full armor on or readily available, is
necessary to thwart terrorist attacks. 

Tanks do make a bit of noise, but relax.  New building codes will
provide for sound insulation.  They won't disturb you as they roll
down the streets protecting the Homeland.

Do I want America attacked by enemy forces?  NO.  Of course not. 

I just don't think we know the full story with regard to our enemies.
Remember Pogo.
