When the Gestapo Knocks-Are We Entering Waters in Which We May All Drown?

[poe]

Friends, we are entering waters in which we may all drown, filled with nothing but anger and fanaticism. We had better take a long, hard look before we enter this raging stream because our country never be the same again. For those who advocate this sea change in American polity and social life do not want to talk; they want to impose. They do not want debates; they want obedience. And most importantly, they do not want us to pay attention to their desire for a de facto (and for many a de jure) Christian theocratic state.

I believe there is no longer any room for apathy or laziness. The voices of hatred, masquerading as "Christians" or "liberators," are beginning to echo eerily the pre WWII days in Germany when the bigoted darkness within "decent" people was stirred by racism, intolerance and vindictiveness, stamping out dissent and opposing viewpoints.

We no longer have the option of turning our eyes away for everywhere we go the same familiar faces and voices greet us. Hate radio spews the worst kind of aggressive boorishness, inane TV talk shows belie the deep distress Americans feel about their broken political processes, and a complacent media is ignoring the underlying tensions contained therein that threaten to explode in single-minded fury. http://www.dissidentvoice.org/Feb05/Tirado0202.htm


Frank writes, "What I needed was a Republican like Arnold who would walk up to and punch him in the face."

All decent people, whether Republican or Democrat, liberal or conservative, should denounce the views of Ward Churchill,” Bill Owens, the Republican governor of Colorado, writes in a letter he sent to Isaiah Lechowit, the president of the University of Colorado College Republicans, who will read it to a lynch mob demanding the resignation of Churchill, the latest victim of the Bushzarro world purge of academe. “Not only are his writings outrageous and insupportable, they are at odds with the facts of history.”

Are they really?

Unfortunately, this is the America we now live in. It will only get worse because the Strausscons and their neoliberal allies have more invasions and bombing runs in mind. In order to accomplish this, America will need to be polarized even further and threats of violence will indeed become actual acts of violence, as Hitler’s Sturmabteilung moved from murmured threats in beer halls to kicking in the doors of dissidents and disappearing them into the night.

The Christian pastor Martin Niemoller is credited with saying, "In Germany they came first for the Communists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me, and by that time no one was left to speak up."

When the Gestapo was in the city
And they had really taken power
When there was nothing left to do
Here in the final hour...

Did you find a place to run to
And hope to live a few more years
When the slaughter was around you
Did you cover up your ears...

When the Gestapo was in the city
And they had really taken power
When there was nothing left to do
Here in the final hour...

Take your aim and fire:

Did you strike a blow against the empire?

1. It'll take MIHOP 2 or something similar to fully turn

U.S.A into U.P.S.A(United Police States of Amerika).

:scared:

I remember posting my police state fear here a few months ago, only to be greeting with "you've gone too far" and "you're crazy". Man, did I feel like Moshe the Beadle(from the memoir Night by Elie Weisel).

2. I dont think we are there yet, but the marginalization of leftist thought

is a very serious problem. Liberals are oppressed. That is why we have a hard time getting power. They cant disenfranchise us so they marginalize us.

Everytime you look at the nation and at the left and the right remember that for decades liberals have been purged from american institutions.

Many branches of leftist philosophy are considered evil by most of the population. There are forbidden ideas in the United States.

3. Discrimination is only the first step

When are the Sheeple gonna realize this is a regime of PURE EVIL?

4. Whoa, hey, whoa, whoa, hey, whoa, hey, hey

Some Iraqis had purple fingers. They're counting the votes. That, as Stalin told us, is the most important thing.

The sweet nectar of liberty is dripping, and freedom is marching down the street.

Pure evil? They come as liberators. I've seen the light. PNAC was right.
