- JDenigma, on 04/21/2008, -1/+75Wow, just wow. This is unbelievable. This definitely deserve to make the front page. So is there anyone still who thinks we aren't living under some semblance of a police state? Does it have to be a full fledged police state where the jack booted thugs and brown shirts are going door to door rounding people up or confiscating weapons, in order to be called a police state? Whoops, speaking of confiscating weapons, didn't that occur to some degree in New Orleans? My god, what is happening to us? This should blow everyone way. I think it would be very insightful to hear from people who were foreigners who witnessed first hand what it was like living in a country slipping into dictatorship. What would former Soviet citizens say about what they're seeing here? What would citizens who witnessed 1930's Germany say about what they would see here with us?
See our tyranny is a sort of soft nanny state type of tyranny. It won't initially appear so obvious to us as seeing troops goosestepping in the streets or hearing our der Fuhrer shouting from his lungs while giving his speech(Well, might want to wait on that one should McCain be the chosen one). No, instead our authoritarian tyranny will first appear with a happy face under the guise of everyday family men law enforcement being the (good soldiers) doing what they say is noble and for our own good as they don't want to hurt us, they just want to protect us. Right? See, our slick, smarter form of subtle tyranny will appear softer like that so as to be more deceptive and to sucker people in. I mean, how could any (good) person oppose such a thing? They must be immoral people or must be terrorists themselves if they would be against such preventive protective measures.
Wow, are you seriously starting to think that what would have been considered crazy before, revolution, could be in the cards?
Oh White Rose White Rose, where are you in spirit White Rose? Sound the alarm to the people in Weimar U.S.A.
Oh, and here's another drill they conducted just recently.... http://www.wreg.com/Global/story.asp?S=8198169- matador3, on 04/21/2008, -0/+14If you really want to know you should read The Gulag Archipelago by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn.

- JDenigma, on 04/21/2008, -2/+44I need to get this story to Ian and Mark.
Hey V for Vendetta fans, this sure would be a nice time now to have some mystery man hijack our major tv news networks with a stirring message of warning. Oh, if only life could imitate art there.- JDenigma, on 04/21/2008, -1/+19Ah well, good for freetalklive. They beat me to it. I checked Ian's show notes and he already covered this. Good job Ian ;-)

I'm so far past being called a loon anymore it's not even funny.- JDenigma, on 04/21/2008, -1/+22I know. It's not like this is something that is fabricated and is some conspiracy. This is real and actually is happening. The question is how serious should we take something like this at this point? I can understand how you might not want to overstate your case and sound overly dramatic, but this in itself is disturbing to a degree and it sets a bad precedent anyway. Those who might recoil at us bringing this up couldn't deny this is real. Their only retort could be that we're overreacting, which I think we're warranted at this point to be cautious and alarmed about everything the government does.
- JustDino, on 04/26/2008, -0/+1The problem with all this is we know it is happening--some want to say it is not despite the evidence--they are Law abiding citizens like most of us---so now we are in a position of being dammed if we do and dammed if we don't. If we do it will bring this unconstitutional Homeland security and they impose Martial law of the United States--if we don't they will do it when they are ready and we are not. We have one hope Ron Paul if we are allowed to get a vote in would clip their wings off. Probably will be no election if my intuition is correct.

- LumpyRevolution, on 04/21/2008, -1/+43If you don't know your constitutional rights, you are going to end up in worse shape. Please people, learn your constitution. Michael Badnarik has a video on Youtube (I mad a play-list so if you want it send me a message and I'll send it to you) and I believe it's also on google. Please start to learn it. It is your only defense.
- worldinmyeyes, on 04/21/2008, -4/+22Yeah, but thanks to Bush, we won't have a Constitution to stand behind - with one swipe of his fascist pen.
- RuffRidr, on 04/21/2008, -1/+22Bush doesn't have a monopoly on raping the Constitution. The Democrat led Congress has been complicit in getting the various Acts and Reforms passed. And don't forget Hillary and Obama's stance on the 2nd Amendment. They all suck, in my opinion.
- LumpyRevolution, on 04/21/2008, -0/+14Our government no longer belongs to "We The People". Not one who has stayed silent or not made speaking out one of their top three policies is innocent. Not one. If we don't use the Constitution then what is left?

- worldinmyeyes, on 04/21/2008, -1/+17OK, I watched his video and see what you're saying - looks like he's saying the Constitution forms the government - so if it defines the government, but does it allow them to add power to the Presidency? He seems to say no. I hope he's right...but I fear he's wrong. I've never heard anyone say we can still stand behind the Constitution in the case of Martial Law. Correct me if I'm wrong.
- LumpyRevolution, on 04/21/2008, -0/+12It's 42 videos strung together. So you are to be commended. I nearly could not blink when I watched it.
The troubling thing that I feel we must look at is that the Constitution never mentions anything remotely like Martial Law and yet it's enforceable law? If you know how to use the Constitution to protect yourself and your family, you will put the world on notice. Otherwise we are all screwed. I see no other option. - worldinmyeyes, on 04/21/2008, -0/+11No I didn't watch that - I only watched a 5 minute or so piece - maybe you could post the link to the playlist here or send it via shout. They have already labeled people that mention the Constitution as terrorists right? If there is a way to have Constitutional rights during Martial Law, I'd like to know about it.

- jamessavik, on 04/21/2008, -1/+19I live in Mississippi and they do this stuff all the time. They don't claim to be catching terrorists- I call BS on that.
The cops are serving warrents, rounding up bond-jumpers and snatching up druggies that they have enough on to prosecute.
The cops like to do it large scale like this so they can hit everybody that has it coming at once so the word to lay low can't get out. They will arrest people on outstanding warrents on everything from 1st degree murder, convicted sex offenders that haven't registered, coke and meth sales and even failure to pay child support.- p0s3r, on 04/22/2008, -6/+2Isn't that what they're supposed to do? Arrest criminals?
- nakani, on 04/22/2008, -0/+3Are these operations usually coordinated by federal agents?
- mentallyinhell, on 04/21/2008, -1/+26Seems like we're at war with ourselves. For a long time they've tried to convince us that we're at war with some distant and mysterious enemy, and we have been. He's just been sitting in the white house. He will not give up his seat of power. He will declare himself dictator.
- JDenigma, on 04/21/2008, -0/+5I certainly don't like Bush, but right now I can't see that happening, that he would declare martial law before the elections, suspend them and then declare himself dictator. I think we may well be approaching that, but I think it's a little too soon for something like that to happen so that might seem a little bit overboard.
Besides, I don't think Bush even needs to do that when all the politicians from both parties are in on it together anyway. I rather think that the next president following Bush, whether it be McCain, Hillary or Obama, will become the official dictator after they've inherited the newfound powers the Bush administration acquired. I think 2009 and beyond is what we should fear.- avengingturnip, on 04/21/2008, -0/+5If you think about it, that will not really be necessary as long as succession can be adequately controlled. Most Roman Emperors served less time than U.S. Presidents do. George Bush is probably anxious to go home by now.
- JDenigma, on 04/21/2008, -0/+3True. They have their useful idiots in the American population so they have nothing to fear. I didn't really think that was likely.

- LumpyRevolution, on 04/21/2008, -0/+15Sorry. No Constitution in London and you are a serf the moment you land on the ground... No rights. None. By the way, Europe owns us too if you didn't know. It's kind of a secret but you can start shouting it from the rooftops if you want.
- khail250, on 04/21/2008, -2/+8Sorry, No Constitution here either.
- JDenigma, on 04/21/2008, -0/+4Sure, but it's not like London will really be much different and better in principle. Where are you going to go? I would highly recommend instead to join the free state project in N.H. I can understand wanting to flee the jurisdiction of the U.S. if you're that afraid, but wherever you go in this world you're going to be a slave and each and every damn government in the world has this same damn potential of tyranny. N.H. is the best option if you'd rather want to stay to try to fight.
In the big picture, I'd also say we have nothing to lose anyway. If you're afraid of dying, hell we're all going to die at some point anyway unless they extend the human lifespan or come up with immortality. We might as well die together in a blaze of glory rather than dying alone in our own arms.

- oldhick, on 04/21/2008, -0/+20The question I have for everyone is this... Do you ever envision the need for "martial law" in this country? Could any event, if its drastic enough, warrant the implementation of "martial law"? If your answer is yes, in some situations I could see it being necessary, then its probably a good thing that they are training so they can get it right.
If your answer is no (like mine), than this is really scary.- JDenigma, on 04/21/2008, -0/+5That is a good question. A person can bring up some very extreme emergency scenarios that would make that a tricky question to address. I suppose such things would include a total breakdown of civilization if you have some mass pandemic or nuclear holocaust, or mass insurrections and riots in the streets in which people just lose it and are attacking each other and questions about whether government should step in for quarantines. Examples like that would tie in to that tough question.
Of course, if one does say it is justifiable after a certain point, then where does one draw the line and who decides what the criteria are for drawing that line? Then again, would government necessarily be able to protect us and restore order in such drastic scenarios? The idea that government is able to restore order in such cases, might be an illusion. They showed how incompetent they were with handling the aftermath of a sever hurricane. If they can't handle something like that, what does that say about other things? This is a hard one to address. I certainly don't want a breakdown of civilization and to just sit on our asses and not have anything done while things are getting dangerous, but just maybe conventional thinking that government is necessary in such cases, could be wrong after all. People are used to thinking government is a "necessary evil" in such cases. I can understand how people would think that is a legitimate function of a limited government so long as you have a government at all. Maybe when it comes to things like hurricanes or worse, we would be better off with more decentralized rescue efforts whether it be the state governments or the free market. Maybe if we opened up our imagination to explore ideas, we could envision how people could voluntarily organize to conduct some efforts to restore order and stop something dangerous to the survival of the species literally speaking. There was a time where I would have thought that should be a legitimate role of government, but I'm to the point now where I have changed my thinking and am willing to explore voluntary solutions to handling these extreme scenarios. We might be better off to err on that side.

I don't support the action detailed here and I am disgusted that some people think this type of activity is warranted or legal.
I have spent a considerable amount of time learning and listening to many people.
As I see it these types of activities are but the tip of the iceberg and if we elect someone as president who does not respect the Constitution ( the three Senators) we could see many more of these actions.
I am pretty sure that the powers that be do not see me as a threat anymore, but I do know that I have been looked at by the FBI ( knowledge gained via FOIA requests) and made it on the Denver Spy list ( another FOIA request) but since I can no longer run from them they no longer see any point in keeping tabs on me.
I am glad I was able to visit Canada and Mexico before they required us to obtain a passport(something I refuse to do) to cross those borders.
People called me crazy when I predicted we would see this type of action from our government.
I wonder what they think now?- stfucupcake, on 04/21/2008, -0/+10 I, too am totally outraged that the feds are taking this step. One wonders what this is the start of and how far they plan on taking it. This type of "cooperation" is not anything but a veiled citizen's rights powergrab by the feds. I am posting this on every forum I'm on.
"Of course, such activity is clearly not related to a real and tangible terror threat, it is related to the ongoing effort to vastly increase the size and scope of the federal government and increase the power it has over American citizens" (from the cited article by Steve Watson, Infowars.net) - JustDino, on 04/26/2008, -0/+3At 4am i rather think we will be sleeping and not in control of our guns---registered or not. That is why Martial law--they just break down the front door and ambush us while we are still in bed. We needed to be paying attention BB Before Bush and BC before Clinton. They failed their oath and country and we let them have a free pass.

- 2trkpony, on 04/21/2008, -0/+14Whenever you see a police response to a major (or minor) 'criminal incident', disturbance or protest these days, the gendarmes assembled don't look like the friendly cop on the beat some of us remember from (possibly) more innocent days. They look like armored warriors, even the imperial "storm troopers" of the Star Wars movies, with their body armor, automatic weapons, shields, tasers and tight formations. No wonder some neighborhoods in America feel more like occupied territory than like places where the people rule themselves.
Perhaps the most dangerous effect of over-federalization of criminal law has been militarization of law enforcement. The Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 was passed to outlaw the use of federal troops for civilian law enforcement. Posse Comitatus is a Latin term meaning "power of the county." The law made it a felony to willfully use "any part of the Army . . . to execute the laws,'' except where expressly authorized by the United States Constitution or by act of Congress.
In a nutshell, the Posse Comitatus act bans the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines from participating in arrests, searches, seizure of evidence and other police-type activity on U.S. soil. The Coast Guard and National Guard troops under the control of state governors are excluded from the act.
What the act does is to ensure that the military is not used for domestic, civilian law enforcement. This is an extremely important safeguard for individual liberty and United States citizens' rights under the Constitution. When military forces are used to enforce domestic laws on American citizens, the danger of a military or military-dominated dictatorship is not necessarily inevitable. But it is a constant danger.
The military operates on principles of total authoritarian control, with no room for dissent, for waiting for a consensus to form, or for democracy. Military training is antithetical to the values of due process and diversity on which civilian law enforcement must be founded.
An army's mission is to rapidly destroy enemies of a different nationality, while law enforcement is (supposed) to serve and protect fellow Americans, who are guaranteed presumptions of innocence and other rights.
The blurring of the distinction between civilian law enforcement and martial law has taken America a long, long way from the standards of the Constitution.
Con-gress should tighten the Posse Comitatus Act so that it forbids all use of military personnel and equipment, including the National Guard.

Good luck getting these sell-outs to act on interests of the American citizens..- JustDino, on 04/26/2008, -0/+22trkpony: You must be sleeping---Posse Comitatus Act has been suspended--besides we have enough foreign troops stationed in the United States against the Constitution that they do not need our troops to do their dirty work. Think most of our troops would support America---but there are many who would just follow orders.
- 2trkpony, on 04/21/2008, -0/+17George Bush has signed into law a provision which will actually encourage the president to declare federal martial law. It does so by revising the Insurrection Act, a set of laws that limits the President's ability to deploy troops within the United States. The Insurrection Act (10 U.S.C.331 -335) has historically, along with the Posse Comitatus Act (18 U.S.C.1385), helped to enforce strict prohibitions on military involvement in domestic law enforcement. With one cloaked swipe of his pen, Bush is seeking to undo those prohibitions.
Public Law 109-364, or the "John Warner Defense Authorization Act of 2007" (H.R.5122), which was signed by the commander in chief on October 17th, 2006, in a private Oval Office ceremony, allows the President to declare a "public emergency" and station troops anywhere in America and take control of state-based National Guard units without the consent of the governor or local authorities, in order to "suppress public disorder."
Bush seized this unprecedented power on the very same day that he signed the equally odious 'Military Commissions Act of 2006.' In a sense, the two laws complement one another. One allows for torture and detention abroad, while the other seeks to enforce acquiescence at home, preparing to order the military onto the streets of America. Remember, the term for putting an area under military law enforcement control is precise; the term is "martial law."
Section 1076 of the massive Authorization Act, which grants the Pentagon another $500-plus-billion for its ill-advised adventures, is entitled, "Use of the Armed Forces in Major Public Emergencies." Section 333, "Major public emergencies; interference with State and Federal law" states that "the President may employ the armed forces, including the National Guard in Federal service, to restore public order and enforce the laws of the United States when, as a result of a natural disaster, epidemic, or other serious public health emergency, terrorist attack or incident, or other condition in any State or possession of the United States, the President determines that domestic violence has occurred to such an extent that the constituted authorities of the State or possession are incapable of ("refuse" or "fail" in) maintaining public order, "in order to suppress, in any State, any insurrection, domestic violence, unlawful combination, or conspiracy."
The law also facilitates militarized police round-ups and detention of protesters, so called "illegal aliens," "potential terrorists" and other "undesirables" for detention in facilities already contracted for and under construction by Halliburton. That's right. Under the cover of a trumped-up "immigration emergency" and the frenzied militarization of the southern border, detention camps are being constructed right under our noses, camps designed for anyone who resists the foreign and domestic agenda of the Bush administration.

If that wasn't enough,
The National Security and Homeland Security Presidential Directive (NSPD51), signed on May 9, 2007
http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2007/05/20 ...
declares that in the event of a "catastrophic event", George W. Bush can become what is best described as "a dictator":
"The President shall lead the activities of the Federal Government for ensuring constitutional government."
This directive, completely unnoticed by the controlled media, and given absolutely no scrutiny by Congress, literally gives the White House unprecedented dictatorial power over the government and the country, bypassing the US Congress and obliterating the separation of powers. The directive also placed the Secretary of Homeland Security in charge of domestic “security”.
This is another step towards 'official' martial law, which suggests that a new "catastrophic event" 9/11-type pretext could be in the pipeline: http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=vie ...
possibly before upcoming 2008 presidential elections? in order to suspend them and force another Bush 'presidency' for another 4 years..
Is there any doubt what's really going down with all this un-Constitutional 'above the law' 'unprecedented powers' bull ***** signing away our rights as Americans, destroying our Constitution; the people's law of the land. Are you so naive to believe this is "for your protection!" or 'for the security of The United States & American citizens.'..get real. They don't care about us. Law enforcement & police have been Federalized. Every region of the United States now has a "Joint Task Force staff" in charge of coordinating military involvement in domestic law enforcement. Posse Comitatus has been eroded, null & void. All the criminals that-be need is just the right manufactured 'crisis', Lord Chimp III will invoke NSPD51, Martial Law will then be declared under the ill-named & intentioned 'patriot act'.

"The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people
from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie.
It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers
to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie,
and thus by extension, the truth becomes the greatest enemy of the state."
~ Dr. Joseph M. Goebbels - Hitler's propaganda minister

- hdar3415, on 04/22/2008, -0/+6I re-submitted this if anyone would like to vote on it and see if we can get it to FP. http://digg.com/odd_stuff/Three_States_Subjected_T ...
- JDenigma, on 04/22/2008, -0/+3What happened there? I checked it and it's gone. Page not found error. Removed I guess.
- hdar3415, on 04/22/2008, -0/+2Possibly, it still comes up for me but Digg may have limited it only to people on my friends list. I hate censorship. I added you to my friends list if you want to become mutual friends and see if it makes a difference.
- SaraLiberty, on 08/16/2008, -0/+7hdar3415: I think this should be submitted under World News instead of Offbeat Odd Stuff. Yes it is odd, but the implications of the article concern the world on a much greater scale. And it is indeed news! My intention isn't to attack you, I only wanted to point this out. Thanks.
- hdar3415, on 04/22/2008, -0/+2I agree that Odd News is not the place to put it, and you're right about it affecting the world in time, but since this is National and not International I didn't feel it appropriate to use the World News category. Digg needs more categories, Crime & Punishment would have been the best place to put it, even a General News category would work for me.

- stienster, on 04/24/2008, -0/+1Sudden Impact is the latest chapter in the Operation FALCON saga. Even Steve Watson's article (dated 4/20/08) is a slightly modified version of his previous article on FALCON. But I thank him (for not dropping it) and everyone here for finally taking notice of this horror story. With America leading the world in number of prisons and inmates, and knowing that all those nice new Halliburton federal mega detention camps are just waiting to be filled, who could blame the dept of Homeland Security for these tactics? They're just putting our tax dollars to work for us.

- JustDino, on 04/26/2008, -0/+1We can pray that it does---because Americans will not like what is coming at them.
