Quote from AAAintheBeltway:
Dozens of federal agencies and every two bit police force now have their own SWAT teams, all pumped up and ready to go. It is a huge potential threat to our liberties. Anyone remember the storm troopers that Clinton sent in to snatch that little cuban boy in miami and send him back to Castro?
Or Kent State, Rodney King and the rest of the LA nonsense, riots and all. Or, more current, raided by fbi, atf, for possessing subversive George Washington citizen's rulebook. 2006.
Civil liberties have been steamrolled over the year, yet so many seem to hate the aclu. I have to agree that some aclu stuff gets a bit bizarre, but they seem to be consistent. Wire taps etc. getting to be a bigger mess daily. Yet we can't find OBL with the force of the US military.
This is not left or right in my opinion, just scary.
