“The Department of Homeland Security, created after the 9/11 attacks to protect the country from international terrorism”
...by bringing in international terrorists, or groups of foreigners who grow up to be jihadis.
As an excuse to create a surveillance state here in the U.S.
Instead of closing the borders, getting immigration under control, and kicking out real threats after 9/11, the government left our doors wide open and then essentially said “well, we’ll just have to spy on both foreign terrorist suspects here in the homeland and American citizens alike since we have imported so many Islamists. Our gross incompetence made this necessary.”
“We had to create an authoritarian state to protect you.”
This forum is considered social media.
Do you still have it?
I checked my ‘links’ page and it is gone. I cleaned that up a few times over the years.
It was a caution about using ‘salty’ language, but even searching the archives nothing comes back.
Regarding salty talk aimed at the president (or other officials) vs visits from the SS

Unfortunately, we are saddled with a communist sympathizer in the White House. I don’t know whether or not he’s an actual card carrying commie, but he’s definitely an America-hating, anti-capitalist Marxist leftist who thinks communism is the way to go. Now I remember when America used to fight against communism. It wasn’t that long ago. Many of us on FR are veterans of wars against communism and some of us believe that American citizens who are communists are the enemy within, ie, the domestic enemy we’ve sworn to defend against. American citizen? hmmmm... that may be a loophole for Obama.

So now comes the problem. If you feel it’s your duty to call Obama a traitor and use salty language in your proposed resolution, ie, suggest the commie be keelhauled, walked off the plank, run up the yardarm, tarred and feathered and run out of Dodge, etc, etc, etc, you may be facing a visit from your friendly Secret Service. And even though your visiting agent may agree politically, and may take his oath to the constitution seriously, he’s still sworn to protect the officeholder and it’s his duty to take all threats seriously. And that may include serving me with a subpoena to turn over your IP address. Now I’m duty bound to protect your privacy to the best of my ability, but I cannot defend against stupidity.

You are correct. Thnx for pointing that out to me. Funny how one doesn't think before opening up their mouth before morning coffee.
Eventually we will have “Internal Passports”, like in the former Soviet Union, that you will need to cross State lines.
Oh, and my apologies for all those on FR that I referred to as fools.
Thank you!
Book mark.
Apology accepted.
Yes,CC G (CCP), that the correct answer to the question: “What are you going to me that is going to make me need to use my weapon against you?”
Well..not quite yet. But they are going to do everything they can to provoke this.
Who needs a Super Patriot Act when you have the American Committee for State Security at the ready?
PING!

If you believe this, you are on the list
An idea from onetime consultant Markus Wolf?
The beginning of the Secret Police State/'Geheime Staatspolizei'.
Offend your neighbor, and find yourself on some list for being 'dangerous', or offensive.
The Muslim Syrian in Colorado was right under their noses...
So much for COMPETENCE
Appears all we can do is sit back and watch it happen...
Communist Thought Police Have Joined The Communist Purge & Nothing Is Being Done About Any Of It!
They consider ALL of us patriots/freedom fighters on this web site and George Washington, etc. as supposed “domestic terrorists”!!
