3. Remember, folks: IOKIYAR (It's OK If You're A Republican).
We seem to have a one-party police state in this country: Republicans are above the law, Democrats are below the law. I knew this was so on the federal level; evidently it has trickled down to the state and local level.

4. Police State USA?
Police State USA?, by Dr. Norman Livergood.

<snip>

* In a free society, police agencies respond to evidence of planned and actual criminal activity.

* Police officers in a free society keep the peace; they do not investigate citizens and activities unless there is some reason to investigate.

<snip>

One of the most horrendous aspects of this incipient American police state is its portrayal as a benign patriotism. "We're going to make our nation safe from terrorists," Bush sneers. This is a part of the larger propaganda campaign to make Dubya appear a harmless dunce--someone who isn't smart enough to be a villain.

As we've seen in a previous essay the parallels between Nazi Germany and the Bush administration are striking. Bush's creeping police state is being ushered in through exactly the same means that Hitler used to overpower the German people. Along with the attacks of his brutal Gestapo thugs, Hitler achieved ultimate success when he got the people to spy and inform on one another.

5. When will the PEOPLE awke up??
It's up to the PEOPLE to change this shit.. to say NO to Polive State tactics, nazi tactics, and the drug war which enables them to victimize people. It's time for us to SPEAK UP and tell them we're sick of living in a Police State!

6. When will they wake up?
Probably when they get a knock at the door at 3:00am and the Homeland Security official informs them they are the lucky winners of a free vacation at Camp Dubya, a re-education holiday camp in sunny Gitmo, Cuba.
