You grew up in a communist country and you're calling the US a "police state?!" We've had far more government observation on citizens during times when the President received a declaration of war from Congress like during WW2. Look at how a "police state" is defined and the examples of some and see if that even remotely applies to the U.S. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Police_state |
Again, perfectly said. | |

I thought that was rather funny. Just goes to show who makes all the conspiracy theories. lol | |

| LOL!
Spilch, I don't think he means it literally, I presume he sees some gradual changes that are moving in that direction (referring to the police state comments).

According to the conspiracy people there is a much larger plan at work then the left/right party. Supposedly there are 300 people who control everything that happens on planet earth. None of them are presidents.
The so called police state that was predicted 15+ years ago is here. Especially since 9/11.
I grew up in a communist country and unfortunately I am seeing a reflection of it right here in the US. Again, especially since 9/11
I just want to live my life and be left alone, so I don't support either side, but in the early 90s I used to get a newsletter from COSMIC AWARENESS COMMUNICATIONS and their so called channeled info predicted that in 10 years "terrorism" will be a household word. Those newsletters can be ordered today to verify. Now that part of their mambo jumbo is interesting to me.

As far as Bush - seeing him sit in the classroom & his facial expressions after being told what has just happend - I still can't believe my eyes. That is the president of the United States? Hmmmm...... Sad indeed.
| What would have him do? Jump up, scream and run to Air Force One? Or would you prefer he stay in his office like John Kerry, stunned and unmoving for 45 minutes?

Also Bin Laden's family was able to leave the country according to that movie - is that true Scott? And how do you explain that?

You grew up in a communist country and you're calling the US a "police state?!" We've had far more government observation on citizens during times when the President received a declaration of war from Congress like during WW2. Look at how a "police state" is defined and the examples of some and see if that even remotely applies to the U.S. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Police_state | I'll give you one example - in the previous "war" all the us news channels were reporting how the US is so careful not killing citizens, yet when my mom calls me up and tells me how many people are being killed by the Americans. Now who was telling the truth?
As far as me calling the US a pilice state? My friend I am not the only one, I hope this isn't the first you hear that from someone. FYI, I said I see reflections of what I couldn't wait to excape from. I am not here to convince you of it, it is simply what I see. If you see it otherwise... good for you. Otherwise just see how the police is treating people. That is always a very good indicator of how things are and where they are heading.

Many were asked detailed questions. None of the passengers stated that they had any recent contact with Usama Bin Ladin or knew anything about terrorist activity.
| While many may think that I am an idiot (I think I am) the above statement is more laughable than any conspiracy theory I have ever read.

I may freak, I may sit there stunned, trying to collect my thoughts. Unless a situation like that actually occurs, there is no one who can say for certain exactly how they would react. | |

I probably would have freaked and ran out to get to my house ASAP. That wouldn't have done me any good though. It would have also probably freaked out the kids. | |
