Eventually this is going to lead us to Civil War. i hope everybody enjoys what's coming!
Once again people who ought to know better, and DO better, flout the Constitution and ignore our rights. If you don't have a warrant, get one! And before all the law and order types jump up and say, "Yeah, but..... Just because it is "legal" does not make it right.
This can't be a surprise to anyone. I have seen Sears do it, Penny's does it...and Kohl's does it. You just got to be careful. I quit shopping at MIDWAYUSA because of nonsense like this. I had just bought a couple of items and a week later they sent me an email touting Special Sale Prices because it was my birthday! When I decided to purchase more of the items I had previously bought, I found the prices had been raised so they could offer me a "SALE PRICE" that was 10% HIGHER than the price I had just paid for the SAME ITEMS!
Can't do THAT! Where would organizations like the Department of Health and Human Services get money to fund their SWAT teams?
"It took no small amount of political courage." Courage? Maybe. But getting stabbed in the back by your Vice President while you weren't looking probably might have something to do with it! I wonder if Mr. Biden will continue on the ticket?
"And, the seeds of hate born from that one event kicked off a chain reaction that this country would rather forget." WOULD RATHER FORGET. Do they really believe that??? If we forget that, we may forget that it can happen to any of us. God forbid.
Shows how little people know. EVERYTHING is about and touched by politics of some sort. Whether it is personal relationships, how you react with the people in your small subdivision, how you deal with people in the larger community, your school, your county, town, state or the country at large. Even how people react to each other on this forum is tinged with politics. EVERYTHING is politics.
I imagine that, under certain circumstances people refuse to think about, the government could also disable the phones to keep important information from being passed from one place, person or group, to another.
"Officials say Bales walked to two local villages, killing four men, four women, two boys and seven girls, then burned some of their bodies." In a country where nearly every young man who can carry a gun, does carry a gun, ONE LONE MAN DID ALL THAT??? In TWO separate villages, at TWO separate times, ONE MAN??? ONE LONE MAN went out into hostile territory (to an American soldier nearly ALL Afghanistan is hostile territory) and did all this BY HIMSELF??? AND NO ONE fought back???? SOME SOB IS LYING! And the way the U. S. Government is sucking up to the Afghanis, I would not bet WHO is doing the lying!!!
