The Road to Dictatorship
Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010Tactless Sinister Assholes (TSA)
Tuesday, August 25th, 2009If you’ve done any reading on the bullying, abusive, malignant insanity foisted by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), (also known as Tactless Sinister Assholes) upon hapless air passengers, then you probably have a very clear picture of just how useless this entire organization is. They represent, not real security, but a theater act. People are pulled out of line for no reason which makes any sense. Clearly stupid regulations are put into place as to what cannot be carried on a plane. Clearly stupid behavior is exhibited by the TSA slime who man the security lines. People’s right to privacy and security are being infringed by these government goons in strip searches and pat downs. Property which could not be used to down a plane or take it over, is confiscated. Last, but not least, policing power is being abused at levels which reminds one of the Gestapo of the Third Reich, where charges are pretty much invented against individuals who have done absolutely nothing wrong.
Most of the TSA morons are not qualified enough to push a broom, but give them a tin badge and they’ll take their minimal IQ and devote it to causing misery for air travelers. I long ago stopped flying, because I don’t like being treated like a criminal in my own country.
Don’t believe me? Pick your favorite Web search engine and search for "TSA sucks". Read the links and the comments on those pages which have them. The stories are profuse.
I’ve read quite a few accounts which makes my blood boil, but this one has to be one of the worst. The TSA insanity is plainly showing.
Prescience

Pure Evil
Tuesday, June 9th, 2009"The Obama administration is considering a change in the law for the military commissions at the prison at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, that would clear the way for detainees facing the death penalty to plead guilty without a full trial."
So states this article in The New York Times by William Glaberson.
I want you to read the sentence a few times over. Mull it over in your mind what is being called for. Grasp the very nature of this insanity and face the ugly, morality bereft purpose it portends.
This proposal is calling for the execution of held individuals, facing no actual charges, without holding a trial, if they confess to anything – even if the confession is taken under torture!
In current US military code, those who face capital charges cannot plead guilty, to prevent just this kind of abuse. Blend this insane proposal of accepting confessions under any circumstance with the compulsion of our government to torture confessions out of people and you have the perfect recipe for driving our culture straight back to the horrid injustice of the Inquisition! The very call for such a thing is purely evil!
I could write a full respective post on this, but I would never surpass the simple strength of this post in Washington’s Blog. I consider it mandatory reading. Follow the links as well
In case all of this is still unclear, follow this scenario. With the current insanity set by the Patriot Acts, the following can occur to anyone, foreign and US citizens alike…
You are arrested under "suspicion of being a terrorist" (no actual charges filed) and are hauled off to some undisclosed military gulag. Since you are considered an "enemy combatant", you will not be given any access to civilian court – you face a military tribunal, assuming they even hold one for you. (They don’t have to, under the current law.) You are denied access to a lawyer, tortured by waterboarding, sleep deprivation, psychological manipulation – under a whole litany of procedures that the CIA and military won’t even talk about, for whatever period of time the government wants to hold you. Indefinitely if they want. If your relatives even know what happened to you, they are not given access to you at any point. During this period of indefinite incarceration, though no actual charges have ever been filed against you and no evidence exists that you were involved in any illicit activity, you confess guilt under torture to some "act of terrorism" which holds a captial penalty. Without ever going to military trial and having never even talked to a lawyer (or anyone else outside of the military prison), the confession under torture is accepted and you are executed for it.
We are on the very brink, people!
If we fall into this hollow facade of "justice", we’ve lost absolutely everything good that this country ever stood for.
Addendum: I’ve reworded a major portion of this post to clarify the difference between military and civil court procedures and the affects of this proposal when blended with current law set by the Patriot Acts and others.
All Hail the USSA
Tuesday, May 26th, 2009I dare any Obama supporter to defend this. Go ahead and try! Let’s hear your rationalizations trying to spin Obama’s new plan as being a “good thing”. Try to defend policy as vile and insufferable to the Constitution as anything Bush managed. Try to defend a policy of indefinite detention of “suspected terrorists”, with no charges filed, no trial at all – just imprisonment on the word of a new “judicial” system outside of the Constitutional judicial system.
The only change this country got with Obama behind the Executive branch, was that he’s a better liar than Bush is. His policies are just as horrid, just as contemptible and just as gut wrenchingly disgusting as anything we saw during the Bush years. Further, Obama’s policies are being added onto the policies Bush established – none of which have been repealed. Wake up, Obamatons – you’ve been had.
Change, my ass!
MySpace Mopsy and Myopic Measures
Friday, March 27th, 2009The brazen, unbelievable stupidity of the law and law enforcement continues to surprise even me. One of the recent incidents which has my senses reeling, is a case where a currently unidentified fourteen year old New Jersey girl posted pictures of herself, consisting of 30 “indecent” images, on MySpace.
Certainly you can argue that her actions merit some kind of stern punishment by her parents and a harsh conversation on the sheer stupidity of performing such a naive act: but the government’s response is utterly nonsensical! This fourteen year old girl, who was not manipulated to do what she did, was not endangered by anyone but herself, is being charged with various laws against child pornography (presumably for creating and distributing).
Let that fact sink in for a second: She’s been arrested and charged with felony counts of child pornography for posting pictures of herself!
If convicted, she will have to register for the rest of her life as a sex offender! She will have no right to vote, own a firearm, etc., and will have to identify herself on every job application she ever fills out – for the rest of her life – as a felon!
How damnably demented, tyrannical and incomprehensibly brainless are our police and prosecutors? Are they really ignorant of the intent of laws like this, or are they simply throwing their weight around, using the letter of the law to purposely cause harm against people who have really committed no crime?
What good will come out of ruining this girl’s life?
The sick, festering, mentally deficient and morally bankrupt prosecutors pushing for these charges and the mindlessly absolutistic police who are helping them, are complete and utter scum – not worthy to eat the soiled toilet paper this poor girl produces. They have demonstrated no measurable common sense in this and should be debarred, disbarred and fired – and preferably buried in a very deep cesspool somewhere, where they cannot infect the rest of the populace with their malignant cretinism!
I am becoming more and more convinced, that the whole damned planet is going stark, raving mad.
