FBI to bust down the doors of DUers....

[Postman]

Attorney General: Terrorists are in our neighborhoods

http://www.rawstory.com/news/2006/Attorney_General_Terrorists_are_in_our_0816.html

The most dramatic change," said Gonzales, "is the nature of the enemy our country today faces -- a stateless enemy sometimes hidden and nurtured here in our neighborhoods, taking advantage of the very laws they mock with their killing and destruction, as a shield from detection and prosecution."

"It is therefore essential that we continue to develop the tools we need to investigate their actions and intentions with the help of our partners, and prosecute those who travel down the road of radicalization."

...just what does "traveling down the road of radicalization" mean???

Is it "radical" in these lunatics' eyes to question their motives?

(nowhere in the article does it say the FBI intends to do as I suggested in the OP line. That is just my opinion)

1. Come and Get Me!

I'll be waiting right here for ya....

[Carla in Ca]

42. I stand with Code Pink

every Wednesday night, rain or shine, at the Traffic Circle in Orange, Ca. The group has been there for 2 years. You can come and get us there, too!

But be careful, you won't be able to cuff one of us, he lost a hand in Iraq. Oh, and be careful of the older lady who stands with the folded flag she was given at her son's military funeral. And wait! Don't arrest our friend who has a son currently serving in Iraq. While you are at it, don't arrest the teachers, social workers, nurses and anyone who brings their children and their dogs. And you certainly wouldn't arrest the ladies from a neighborhood Christian Center, would you? If so, make sure you have transportation for the ones in wheelchairs, will you please?

Well, I guess that is about it. OK, we're ready now.

2. Enter the Thought Police.

Gonzo pushes it a little harder at every chance he gets.

[Dr.Phool]

23. Some of those terrorists get appointed Attorney General,

Or elected President. Or sent to the UN.

[stop the bleeding]

3. jackass(es) n/t

[Rex]

4. They placed all their bets on 'terrorism'.

Either you follow the BFEEs radical ideas or you support their 'enemies' radical ideas. No one gets to use common sense. Too radical.

[EVDebs]

40. I think it's more like "Errorism"

Ya see, Shrub gets it all wrong and his disciples will follow him anywhere, even into the slammer.

[angstlessk]

5. Hell, it ain't us..it's them dern 'red Ned' supporters...OH WAIT!

That's ME...hey..I got thumbs like a 'Macaca'..I have eased my hands out of cuffs a time or two before! OOPS..I have said too much already!

[Donnachaidh]

6. K&R!

[thepurpose]

7. They will have to pry this beer from my cold drunk hands. Bring em on.

[tom_paine]

8. It's coming. Sadly it appears to be only a matter of time

However, there are some things which could slow it down considerably.

Consider 8 years of "rest" between Emperors George and Jeb with a relatively Good Emperor like Vespasian McCain.

By relatively good, I mean that McCain will indulge himself by playing Old Republic. Like the original Vespasian, he will restore sanity to an Empire gone mad under Nero (remember, everything being relative to the era) and he will treat the Imperial Congress with relative respect.

The stealing and damage won't abate, but it probably won't get worse (isn't it sad that such seems like HEAVEN from here). The steady Soviet-like horror will continue, but I think Vespasian MCain will mitigate it just a bit, and ANY mitigation of the stealing, fraud and 98% lies is a shower of blessing.

Then Jeb comes in and oh God, the camps may be open for business before he's through.

Historically, it seems of high probablility that American Totalitarianism will reach the place that all other totalitarianisms have gone without fail.

But maybe not for a couple decades.

[me b zola]

9. This morning on Washington Journal

This morning on Washington Journal a repub from CA was talking about terrorists and said something about well, I would question if people who constantly protest or constantly call or e-mail someones office couldn't be considered terrorism. Chilling.

[acmejack]

14. I heard that and thought the same thing.

All those letters, all those phone calls. Oh well, I'll die of natural causes inside ten years anyway, so big deal. They know where I am and if I was halfway ambulatory I would be in front of Senator Hutchison's office everyday she chose to be in town.

Terrorist, no way! Pissed off patriot, you bet!

[EFerrari]

10. Why go to all that trouble? They can already read my email

cache my searches and listen to my phonecalls.

I think they're too lazy to kick in my door. :)

[bullimiami]

11. its in there. between the lines. doesnt take paranoia to see it.

[VOX]

12. Wow. "...Develop the tools we need to investigate.." Is *that* what...

the government has been doing in Gitmo? :grr:

[Cleita]

13. I thought illegal searches and siezures (kicking down the door)

were unconstitutional? If they can't pass an ammendment to change that whatever they do is illegal.

[acmejack]

15. You mean that document they have been systematic destroying?

This is the twentyfirst Century and the need to be agile to meet the swiftly emerging threats of this new age. They can no longer be constrained by the rules written for a much slower moving age. Didn't you hear Secretary Chertoff yesterday speak those very words?

[Postman]

17. Yeah, who needs an old document written in 1789 anyway?

I mean this is a post 9/11 world....

[theanarch]

16. no, Junior simply issued a "signing statement" to the Bill...

...of Rights (aka the Patriot Act), which which goose-stepping GOP's and obsequious Democrats meekly voted for, without inconveniencing themselves to read first.

[pitohui]

28. no knock searches and seizures go back to the reagan years

i don't know where the rest of you have been, i was harassed as far back as the early 90s, and these changes in the law were actually brought abt under the guise of fighting drugs under ronald reagan

i could tell some tales but it's too much typing anyone who hasn't noticed after 20 years doesn't want to notice and won't notice until it's their own money seized or their own door busted down

[Starfury]

30. Supreme Court recently upheld no knock entries as well

[la la]

18. oh my gawd--

and I just donated!

I'm in trouble now!

heh heh heh

:evilgrin: :evilgrin: :evilgrin:

[Mr_Spock]

19. Nah, no problem for us, though they are truning average citizens against

the government - creating terrorism if you will.

[karlrschneider]

20. BRING 'EM ON

:grr:

[FreeStateDemocrat]

24. Where have I heard those famous words before? My sentiments exactly!

[Deja Q]

21. Well, I feel terrorized when I see groups of men in the parking lot

All of which are foreigners, all of which love to swear every other word - you bet I'm going to go the other way.

While the media likes to sensationalize, it is inevitable some crackpot might live close-by. And does it matter if they have a H1B or not?

And, no, I don't count anybody initially as some terrorist killer. Until I see something that's highly suspicious. That's when I call. Not before.

Believe what you want. I think this hyperbole is getting farcical. Either your thoughts or mine qualify, but I don't let thoughts drive me to suspicion and paranoia. Sorry.

[Sugar Smack]

22. Fuck OFF, Gonzales.

Jesus Christ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bdamomma]

36. I second that

hypocrisy at its highest level with these assholes, that's what they are exactly and desperate.

[Hubert Flottz]

25. Everyone needs to send that story to their congress critters ASAP

[caligirl]

26. gonzo gone nutso

[Cobalt Violet]

27. I share your opinion.

It's not if but when.

[teriyaki jones]

29. Chilling to witness

the Orwellian language creep

[hunter]

31. When the lazy ass masturbators who tap my phone waddle up my driveway...

... I'll try not to laugh.

They may arrest me anyways, but that would be funny too, I guess until they started ripping off my fingernails or something.

TWITS. They want you to be afraid.



Don't be.

[Hubert Flottz]

32. "just what does "traveling down the road of radicalization" mean"

Voting for Ned Lamont instead of Joe Lieberman and his war.

[dapper]

33. Crap!

I was testing bombs in my toilet, sorry FBI, I had to flush the evidence. Sure they were homemade and pretty shitty.

Dap





Special Note to Agent Mike- The above was a joke

[hootinholler]

34. HiAgentMike

Just drive around until you find a wireless POP network named HiAgentMike. You're close to my house then, hope you have keys to get on the net. Oh, and if you enter you damned well better have a warrant.

-Hoot

[ronnykmarshall]

35. I'll cake sure to bake a cake for them.

[vanboggie]

37. The Happy Camps

Hey, they gotta use those Halliburton Happy Camps for something. At least my DU friends will be there with me, so I'll be in good company.

[ComerPerro]

38. Just don't go readin my thoughts between 4 and 5. That's Willie time!

as in, Groundskeeper Willie, of the Simpsons.

[Freedom_Aflaim]

39. I guess I should be some pants on then...

Wouldnt want the FBI to see me in my boxers...

[treestar]

41. And yet this is not looked on as paranoid and looney

You question the official 911 story and you're a conspiracist wearing a tinfoil hat, but this kind of comment from Gonzalez or Cheney goes by without any MSM pointing out just how paranoid and tinfoil hat it really is.

[Cobalt-60]

43. Come Get Some!

We've seen what happens to people who go with the Gestapo.
You'll need to fight them, whatever the odds.
Once they've killed your dog and kicked down the door - you'll know what to do!
I recommend yelling "Get Some!" as you project the love.

[AntiFascist]

44. If you listen to Pat Robertson and Ann Coulter with their radical....

right-wing threats against liberals, then you'll understand what he's talking about. Terror is one big right-wing conspiracy and the conspirators need to be rooted out.

[formercia]

45. I'm just petitioning my Government for redress

I uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States, what's their excuse?

[ScreamingMeemie]

46. Listen to my voice... Let me ease you carefully into racially profiling

people who have done nothing to you...let me fear monger you into behavior worthy of a classic book about civility being a thin veneer... Ah yes...you're getting sleepy...very sleepy ... and suspicious...suspicious of the soccer mom next door...the one with the DFA sticker on her car....

[theHandpuppet]

47. Help! They're coming for my Scrubbing Bubbles!

Seriously, though, I'm sure DU is already under scrutiny. Never mind that all the domestic terrorists in this country have identified with the RW lunatic fringe and that our Homeland Security buddies would be better off eavesdropping on FR.

FEAR THE LIBERALS!

[DiverDave]

48. Fuck you alberto, I aint afraid of you, or your brownshirts.

[Pacifist Patriot]

49. They are most welcome to violate my civil rights...

I'm prepared for a vicious and protracted court battle on behalf of the U.S. Constitution and my fellow Americans.

Considering I'm wrapping up teaching a class on Islam and my son is doing a project on the Secret Service I'd be surprised if my library habits haven't hit someone's radar screen.

I have no doubt I'm a terrorist....to Bush & Co. I'm sure my loyalty to the Constitution and my insistence on not converting into a cowering puddle of fear at their feet has them terrified. I am an enemy, not to the state, but to those whose positions of power mock it.

[obreaslan]

50. Oh, you know what, I'm not going to be home tonight....

How's tomorrow night work for you guys? Around 8:00ish?

Thanks. :hi:

[Fridays Child]

51. "Traveling down the road of radicalization"

It's rhetoric that supports the prosecution of thought crimes. :mad:

[squarepants]

52. Sounds like they're talking about themselves.

They're going to bust down their own doors????

Seriously, that crap they said can be turned around right back at them. They're the radical ones.

[lpbk2713]

53. I'd prefer an upper bunk.

When I get to Gitmo.
