Do you agree with this quote. Why do Americans think that it is an impossibility to have our civil liberties stripped away and have this nation be turned into a totalitarian, censored, s*ithole? We can see it everyday with the passing of the "Patriot Act" which gives the government the right to spy on us, read our emails, and listen to our phone conversations. How does no one realize that not giving "terrorists" fair trials is wrong. The government can just accuse anyone of being a terrorist and then arrest them for life and not give them a trial. Do none of you see the fact that this could be exploited and that this may turn into a Salem Witch trial? Our polices commit ILLEGAL searches after pulling people over who they see as being "suspicious." Wasn't America founded on the principle that the government should be weak and that people should have freedom. Video taping people, searching people's personal possessions (with no probable cause), and assuming people guilty until proven innocent is something that Masters do to their slaves isn't it? Slaves aren't supposed to have weapons or knowledge because it might be used against their masters. Slaves are supposed to be monitored so they don't misbehave. Am I the only one that is seeing this? For those of you who have read the book or seen the movie "The Running Man," doesn't our society seem strikingly similar to that one? People are blinded and obsessed with mindless media sensations and sports like the Superbowl, Tiger Woods, and the death of Michael Jackson. This is what ancient Rome did, right? They gave the people gladiator fights, chariot races, and all the pleasures they could so the people didn't realize what the leaders they "elected" were doing all around them? You don't think the Germans in Nazi Germany just decided to massacre the Jews. Through propaganda and media Hitler was able to demonize the enemies, just like we are doing to the Islamic Arabs. You honestly don't think that the United States military, probably the most advanced fighting force in the world, can take untrained people with AK-47s living in caves? Every totalitarian state needs an enemy so that they can take away people's civil liberties. They do this because we are asking them to do this. Our irrational, government-caused, fear of terrorism has blinded us. See the truth of what is going on here. Those people who follow all these rules and live "nice" lives are the same type of people who listened to all of Adolf Hitler's laws and became good little Nazis in the Third Reich. These problems will only get bigger and bigger until the government has complete control over our lives. We don't need these laws protecting us from terrorism. We don't need an army of National guards protecting us. We only need basic law enforcement, but the government wants the control and power over us.
The government wants mindless idiots who only watch television, watch the news, and listen to the radio. Without education and intellectual conversation, we lose the ability to resist and ultimately see the truth and become enlightened. See the men behind the curtains. American politics is a joke, our leaders are predetermined by those people who have the money and are willing to donate to a politicians campaign fund. The richest people pick the leaders because they can pick who they donate to and ultimately who has a chance of winning.
I'm sorry if I rambled, but I felt the need.
Your concern about the terrorists gives you away. Please seek counseling for your liberal condition.
Guaranteed, you like Barack Hussein Obama also, and think he's great.

opinions everyone
i like the whole hostage thing...i would consider it that because how would we know which personality was the killer and which one was the hostage...i say,just hit him with a tranquilizer and bag him...and about the skylights...can i come live with you?
'S h i t...'
The tables have turned, I was about to depart from my double life as scum and anti-scum.
A bullet was about to go threw the orange lens of my $500 Armani sunglasses.
'Man these cost a lot of money; a lot of my money that I worked hard for, that I earned, and now there is a 6 meter hole in the right lens.'
It pierced my eye.
'Well that's a b i t c h, I have a hole in my favorite pair of sunglasses and now I am blind in my right eye. Can it get any worse?'
I felt more bullets going threw my body.
I fell into my $1000 glass coffee table from the June issue of IKEA magazine.
Then I thought, if some how there is someone reading this I want them to read it right, and have them read it like any normal book... from the beginning.
I was a depressed cop, on the verge of killing myself.
People said I looked said, they asked if I needed a shoulder to cry on. They were acting like I was a 16 year old girl getting dumped.
I passed my depression off as 'Insomnia.' or a fake goldfish, dying in it's fake water bowl. They believed me, and left me alone.
If I wasn't on duty for patrol, I would check my e-mail.
'You have won the most fake lottery ever sent threw the internet!!!!
Please give us all your information, so we can ruin your life, make you homeless, orphan your children and take all your money that you have been saving up."
It astonished me on how much people would buy into that.
I would also get the occasional cheesy joke from Lura, or feminist lesbian secretary.
"Did you here about the horn of the bus that was trying to worn the deaf man crossing the street?
Neither did the deaf man."
I chuckled.
I scrolled down threw all the p o r n sites and websites that wanted to make my dick bigger.
I replied to them with
'I don't think it can get any bigger.'
Then I saw it, the e-mail that would change my life forever.
'Hello,
Two years ago a man named Tyler Ridgehart, was set free.
You may remember him as the man who killed your sister, and bragged about it in court.
He only got 5 out of the 10 years he was so post to serve. He got out on good behavior.
You know more then anybody else that the system doesn't work.
come to this address listed below.
1596 Lake St.
Building A
Floor 3
If you choose to come, there will be more information regarding your mission.
Sincerely,
Some One Who Cares'
There was to return address, for me to reply. No information about the man and or woman behind this e-mail.
How could I trust a wall of text, to go to some building that for all I now is a closed down, penis enlargement factory.
But I had a gut feeling, this person wants to help me, if they didn't then they would have just sent me a fake lottery.
The next day, I took a sick day. The first sick day I have taken in 15 years. I didn't take a sick day for the funeral of my sister. I didn't take a sick day when my son was born. I didn't take a sick day when my wife left me for our 20 year old Pool Boy.
But I am taking a sick day to see if I will be set up our will actually bring justice.
I looked at the building that bestowed upon my sight. I looked at the worn out letters, that one time in another spelled out "Charline Motel"
There was a note on the door had my initials
"R.M."
I opened it, and all it said was
'Go Inside.'
I went inside, only to discover the smell of yesterdays hooker and today's crack deal gone wrong. I went to the clerk. He had a name tag that said "Truck."
" Whats you want?" asked Truck.
"Where is Floor 3?"
"Oh, you must be R. Macky, is that correct?"
"Yeah."
"Some guy stopped by and told me to give this to you."
In his hand was a box, with Duck Tape holding it together.
"By the way, take that elevator to Floor 3."
I didn't reply, I could care less. I was a cop, I could figure it out on my own.
I went into the elevator, it smelled of old beer and the rusty smell of a hookers snutch.
My eyes looked for the the 3 button, there is was covered in scum bacteria.
As the elevator went up, my heart went down, waiting for fate to give me its hand to salvation.
The elevator door opened.
' Here we go, life or death,'
'Hopefully death.'
that's really good!
apart from a few grammar mistakes, but that can easily be sorted =]

Muslim Democrat, Indonesian President: (Abdurrahman Wahid), A View ...
But in Indonesia the Muslim scholar affectionately known as Gus Dur to millions of people had long been revered by many of his countrymen and highly respected by the country's elites. His life had been one of great public service to his fellow citizens, his religion and his belief in liberal democracy. In this authorised biography, much of it based on unique first-hand observation, Greg Barton introduces us to both the man and his world and attempts to make sense of his controversial public career and presidency.
