I have never been one to believe in conspiracy theories, etc., but I am beginning to see an incredibly disturbing trend developing within this Country. I'm going point out some facts and situations which individually may mean very little, but collectively should give any Freedom loving American cause for concern. History is replete with examples of how his this very same model has been used and abused by Governments to create oppressive, totalitarian regimes.
I realize this is a long article, but I think you'll find it filled with information you're probably not aware of. The sum of which has the potential for GRAVE IMPACT upon the American People.
Please share this with others, Americans need to WAKE UP!

THE PATRIOT ACT:
Originally enacted under the Bush administration in response to 9/11, on May 27, 2011, President Obama, over widespread bipartisan objections,
approved a Congressional four year extension of controversial parts of
the Patriot Act that were set to expire. In March of 2010, Obama signed a
similar extension of the Patriot Act for one year. These provisions
allow the government, with permission from a special secret court, to
seize records without the owner’s knowledge, conduct secret surveillance
of suspicious people who have no known ties to terrorist groups, and to
obtain secret roving wiretaps on people.
Wiretaps for oral, electronic or wire communications, approved by
federal and state courts, are at an all-time high. Wiretaps in year 2010
were up 34% from 2009, according to the Administrative Office of the US
Courts. There are at least 72 fusion centers across the US which collect local
domestic police information and merge it into multi-jurisdictional
intelligence centers, according to a recent report by the ACLU. These
centers share information from federal, state and local law enforcement
and some private companies to secretly spy on Americans. These all
continue to grow and flourish under the Obama administration.
In July 2010, the Washington Post released “Top Secret America,” a
series of articles detailing the results of a two year investigation
into the rapidly expanding world of homeland security, intelligence and
counter-terrorism. It found 1,271 government organizations and 1,931
private companies work on counterterrorism, homeland security and
intelligence at about 10,000 locations across the US. Every single day,
the National Security Agency intercepts and stores more than 1.7 billion
emails, phone calls and other types of communications. The FBI has a
secret database named Guardian that contains reports of suspicious
activities filed from federal, state and local law enforcement.
According to the Washington Post Guardian contained 161,948 files as of
December 2009. From that database there have been 103 full
investigations and at least five arrests the FBI reported. The Obama
administration has done nothing to cut back on the secrecy.
The Bay Area Transit System, in August 2011, hearing of rumors to
protest against fatal shootings by their police, shut down cell service
in four stations. Western companies sell email surveillance software to
repressive regimes in China, Libya and Syria to use against protestors
and human rights activists. Surveillance cameras monitor residents in
high crime areas, street corners and other governmental buildings.
Police department computers ask for and receive daily lists from utility
companies with the addresses and names of every home address in their area.
Computers in police cars scan every license plate of every car they
drive by. The Obama administration has made no serious effort to cut
back these new technologies of spying on citizens.
The Patriot Act even allows the Government to get records from your local Library, to see what books you're reading. It also allows for the WARRANTLESS search of your emails more than 150 days old, without justification or oversite. These concrete examples document a sustained assault on domestic
civil liberties in the United States under the Obama administration.

DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY DATA MINING:
DHS Directive 110-01 specifically identifies information to be gathered from Social Media Sites on U.S. Citizens, amongst others. This includes, but is not limited to: Name, addresses, relatives, pictures, internet service provider information, account numbers, employment, education and lots more! In short, nothing is private to the DHS. DHS Data mining is also certainly not limited to Social Media sites, but from any available databases, including commerial sites specializing in it's collection.
Data-mining programs at
the U.S. Department of Homeland Security are not fully reviewed by the
agency for their effectiveness and, in some cases, for their compliance
with privacy protection mandates, according to a report from the U.S.
Government Accountability Office. The DHS has not completed privacy impact assessments for two of the six data-mining programs the GAO reviewed, the report said. In addition, DHS violated
its own privacy rules by sharing information from the Immigration and
Customs Enforcement Pattern Analysis and Information Collection (ICEPIC)
program with state and local law enforcement agencies, said
Representatives Brad Miller of North Carolina and Donna Edwards of
Maryland, both Democratic members of the House Science, Space and
Technology Committee.
One of the "most
disturbing findings" by the GAO was that ICEPIC rolled out its law
enforcement sharing component before it was approved by the DHS privacy
office, Miller and Edwards said in a press release. The program violates
the DHS privacy impact assessment created for the program, the GAO
report said.

NEW NSA DATA CENTER BEING BUILT IN UTAH:
The Utah Data Center is a data storage facility being built for the NSA and is designed to be a primary storage resource capable of storing data on the scale of yottabytes. It is alleged to capture "all forms of communication, including the complete contents of private emails, cell phone calls, and Internet searches, as well as all sorts of personal data trails—parking receipts, travel itineraries, bookstore purchases, and other digital 'pocket litter'," though its precise purpose is secret.[1] The US Senate has voted to approve the FAA Sunsets Extension Act of 2012, which will authorize warrantless surveillance of Americans for counter-terrorism purposes for another five years. The bill extends the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act FISA Amendments Act of 2008, which granted retroactive immunity for wiretaps and email monitoring under the Bush Administration.[3]

STINGRAY DEVICES:
A federal court judge in Arizona next month will decide if the Department of Justice overstepped the 4thamendment when it used a device called a “stingray” to collect evidence against David Daniel Rigmaiden, a 30-year-old Arizona man accused of leading a massive identity theft ring from 2005 to 2008. Stingrays look like cell towers but are used to collect cell information (even when the phone is not in use) from everyone within reach of the device. Law enforcement officials say the tool is used in a targeted way to search for terror suspects. the defendant in this case says his fourth amendment rights were violated.

DHS EMERGENCY POWER EXTENDED, INCLUDING PRIVATE TELECOM SYSTEMS:
The Obama administration has given the Department of Homeland Security powers to prioritize government communications over privately owned telephones and internet systems in "emergencies." An executive order signed June 6 gives DHS the authority to seize control of telecommunications facilities,
including telephone, cellular and wireless networks.
When President Obama inked his name to the Assignment of National
Security and Emergency Preparedness Communications Functions Executive
Order on July 6, he authorized the US Department of Homeland Security to
take control of the country’s wired and wireless communications —
including the Internet — in instances of emergency. The signing was
accompanied with little to no acknowledgment outside of the White House,
but initial reports on the order quickly caused the public to speak out
over what some equated to creating an Oval Office kill switch for the
Web. Now the Obama administration is addressing those complaints by
calling the Executive Order a necessary implement for America’s national
security.
Former White House spokeswoman Caitlin Hayden insists that “The [order] does not transfer authorities between or among departments,” but
the order does indeed allow the DHS to establish and implement control
over even the privately owned communication systems in the country,
including Internet Service Providers such as Time Warner, Verizon and
Comcast, if the administration agrees that it is warranted for
security’s sake. (everything justified by "Safety")
Immediately after last week’s signing, the Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC) said the order allowed the DHS "the authority to seize private facilities when necessary, effectively shutting down or limiting civilian communications." This is essential for any Government taking control of it's Citizens.
RETURNING WAR VETERANS LABELED AS "DOMESTIC TERRORIST THREAT."
Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said that she was
briefed before the release of a controversial intelligence assessment
and that she stands by the report, which lists returning veterans among
terrorist risks to the U.S.
“This report appears to raise significant issues involving the privacy
and civil liberties of many Americans - including war veterans,” said
Rep. Bennie Thompson of Mississippi, chairman of the House Homeland
Security Committee. The FBI has also characterized returning veterans from Iraq and Afghanistan as a major domestic terrorist threat. FBI documents show the bureau was working with investigators inside
the nation's uniformed services "in an effort to identify those current
or former soldiers who pose a domestic terrorism threat." The other
agencies working with the FBI are the U.S. Army Criminal Investigative
Division, the U.S. Air Force Office of Special Investigations and the
Naval Criminal Investigative Service. Freedom of information Act requests have revealed that the majoirty of DHS "intelligence" has been provided by none other than the "Southern Poverty Law Center."
LICENSE PLATE READERS - DESIGNED TO TRACK YOUR MOVEMENTS:
Today, tens of thousands of LPRs are being used by law enforcement agencies all over the country. The system's unchecked, and largely
unmonitored, use raises significant privacy concerns. License plates,
dates, times, and locations of all cars seen are kept in law enforcement
databases for months or even years at a time. In the worst case, the
New York State Police keeps all of its LPR data indefinitely. No
universal standard governs how long data can or should be retained.
The country's largest such company, Federal Signal Corporation (FSC), which sells LPRs under its PIPS brand name,
says it has sold 20,000 mobile systems across North America and another
15,000 fixed devices across the United States and the United Kingdom. "We work with the 25 largest cities in the United States, over 100
cities in the US. Tim O'Leary, a company vice
president, in an interview with Ars said, "We think the market is growing at
8 to 10 percent, adjusted growth rate, annually."
Various agencies, in particular the Department of Homeland Security, the
Drug Enforcement Agency, and Customs and Border Protection have issued Millions of dollars in Federal Grants to local law enforcement to buy the hardware.
__________________________________________________________________________________RECENT MILITARY "TRAINING" ACTIVITIES IN MANY U.S. CITIES:
HOUSTON: Following reports of a military exercise occurring in Miami this week, KTRK-TV
shot video of military-style helicopters roaming the skies in Houston,
Texas. There have also been several reports of gunfire in the area. The U.S. Army tells KTRK-TV that they
are overseeing a “multi-agency training drill” at the old Carnegie High
School on Houston’s south side. There were reportedly armed men in
fatigues, a lot of firearms and what many believed were real live
rounds. The Army did not give any additional details regarding what the training is all about or why it is being conducted in Houston.
MINNEAPOLIS:
Just as Chicagoans saw Black Hawk helicopters with “heavily armed men”
hanging out of them in April this year and were told it was part of a
routine training exercise, so too are the residents of Minneapolis being
alerted to an upcoming urban training.
WCCO (via CBS Local) stated Monday that residents are not to be alarmed
if they see a similar scene of low-flying military helicopters. It
reported the U.S. Special Operations Command would be conducting
exercises from now through the beginning of September.
What scenarios could the military be trying to make as real as possible? Glenn Beck has some ideas and it makes sense. Either a massive change in military training has taken place OR the government is preparing for “something big,” such as a civil breakdown.
MIAMI: Police sent out a warning [last] Monday that multiple police agencies would be providing support for a joint military training exercise somewhere over Miami and elsewhere in the county. The exercise will include the use of military helicopters. But those who don’t read the papers
were terrified at the sight of soldiers rappelling onto rooftops, as
what sounded like machine gun fire echoed off the high-rises. Josh Epperson, an artist who was visiting Miami during the drill, said
“I heard the machine gun fire and then I hit the deck…I didn’t know
what to expect, and it was one of the loudest things I’d ever heard.” One local resident, Frances Jerrals,
didn’t understand what was happening when she saw military helicopters
flying over her southeast Houston neighborhood.
“When you see this, you think the worst. When you hear this, you think the worst,” Jerrals told KTRK-TV. “I felt like I was in a war zone…It was nonstop. I was terrified,” she added.

DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY AND OTHER AGENCIES ORDER HUGE QUANTITIES OF AMMUNITION: These various agencies have ordered more than
1.6 BILLION rounds of ammunition!
when you add up all the contracts. This ammunition is designated for use here in the continental United States! The question begs, is the Government stockpiling ammunition to be used against the American People? Furthermore, future purchases are now be hidden from the American People by new Government policies. Why?

R.I.O.T. SOFTWARE, DEVELOPED FOR DHS, TRACKS SOCIAL MEDIA USERS:
In this video obtained by the Guardian, Raytheon's 'principal investigator' Brian Urch explains how the Rapid Information Overlay Technology (Riot) software uses photographs on social networks. These images sometimes contain latitude and longitude details – automatically embedded by smartphones within so-called 'exif header data'. Riot pulls out this information, analyzing not only the photographs posted by individuals, but also the location where these images were taken.

HOMELAND SECURITY GIVEN GREEN LIGHT TO MONITOR AMERICAN JOURNALISTS - JANUARY 9, 2012:
Under the National Operations Center (NOC)’s Media Monitoring Initiative that emerged from the Department of Homeland Security in November, Washington has written permission to collect and retain personal information from journalists, news anchors, reporters or anyone who uses “traditional and/or social media in real time to keep their audience situationally aware and informed.”

GENIA PRODUCTS CREATED FOR DHS:
Genia products specializes in the development of lasers, capable of conducting laser scans from 164 feet. Lasers are capable are even capable of detecting gun powder. Imagine a suitable vehicle equipped in front of your home conducting such a scan. Are you over the "Government Limit" of storing ammunition?
That could cause you to be classified as a "Beligerent" under the NDAA and permit your indefinite detention, without the writ of Habeus Corpus. Some of their information has been removed from their site, but here is >GENIA PRODUCTS< ______________________________________________________________________________
DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY REPORTING:

THE 2ND AMENDMENT - THAT WHICH UNDERPINS ALL OTHER FREEDOMS AND LIBERTIES UNDER THE CONSTITUTION: We now have the greatest, sustained assault on the Second Amendment that this Country has ever seen.....Including continued threats from various Government entities of additional, potentially unconstitutional, Executive Action and by some, even proposals confiscation.
Unconstitutional Official Acts
16 Am Jur 2d, Sec 177 late 2d, Sec 256:
"The general misconception is that any statute passed
by legislators bearing the appearance of law constitutes
the law of the land. The U.S. Constitution is the supreme
law of the land, and any statute, to be valid, must be in
agreement. It is impossible for both the Constitution and
a law violating it to be valid; one must prevail. This is
succinctly stated as follows:
The General rule is that an unconstitutional statute, though
having the form and name of law is in reality no law, but is
wholly void, and ineffective for any purpose; since
unconstitutionality dates from the time of it's enactment and
not merely from the date of the decision so branding it. An
unconstitutional law, in legal contemplation, is as inoperative
as if it had never been passed. Such a statute leaves the
question that it purports to settle just as it would be had the
statute not been enacted.
Since an unconstitutional law is void, the general principles
follow that it imposes no duties, confers no rights, creates no
office, bestows no power or authority on anyone, affords no
protection, and justifies no acts performed under it.....
-----------------------------------------------------
Americans need to WAKE UP and understand the almost daily, incremental loss of their Liberties. History is replete with examples of how his this very same model has been used and abused by Governments to create oppressive, totalitarian regimes.
Anyone who is NOT concerned simply doesn't understand history and is therefore doomed to repeat it.
