Info Dump.............
Here's a few links to interesting shit out there.

From the: Doesn't Matter if You Aren't Doing Anything Wrong, We're Gonna Make You a Criminal Anyway! File-
If a Cop Is Illegally Searching You, You Have to Take It.

"..and if they say you did something to deserve a beating, they will be believed by the courts.

Our old comrade Radley Balko does what he does best at The Agitator, chronicling how all-too-often citizens have no rights a policeman need respect when it comes to altercations:"


With the new laws passed recently that say you can be snatched up and detained on the whim of some government official, I guess this is what they will do BEFORE they haul yer ass off to the Camps.

"And I'm Proud to be an American. Where at least I know I'm free!" - Sorry Mr Greenwood. Not anymore.

In case you're living under a rock, here's Old Remus to succinctly explain some of those new laws-
Outrage of the Day-

"The lights are going out all over America. The House and Senate have passed the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012, Sections 1031, 1032 and 1034 of which allow the arrest of U.S. citizens by the armed forces, without laying charges, without evidence or legal representation, with indefinite detention...."
Short and easy. Go read it the whole thing.

And for the Diversity Loving Crowd, here's something to think about -

“If any country refuses to allow the spread of Islam within its borders, we will wage jihad on that country.”

I don't know how anyone with the IQ greater than a Garden Slug couldn't know this already, but apparently they're out there.

Your Tax Dollars at Work!-

As we bleed out economically, this is what they do with the money they don't really have?
We are so Boned.

And if you just need to get your mind off of some of this shit-
