Right, unless of course you seek to expose the crimes the government is engaged in, such as smuggling drugs and guns to fund black budget projects. Then you are subject to being summarily labeled an UEC, smeared in order to discredit your testimony, given a high tech lynching in order to convince the masses that you deserve whatever you get, and then tortured, poisoned, persecuted and deprived of property, privacy and profession until you submit to the evil you seek to fight against. Nothing to worry about at all! Just do whatever you're told like a good little slave and perhaps you'll be allowed some peace.
Can you cite a few examples of this persecution, where critics of Bush have been labeled as combatants, sent to Guantanamo, and tortured?

We supposedly live in an "enlightened" age. But we havent progressed. Today replace the word Witch with the word Terrorist and the defintion above could easily be an indication of our state of affairs today.
All you have to do is stop and think for yourself and open your eyes to what is really happening around you. Ask questions and demand answers.

. Nor is there any sort of logical correlation between the Witch Trials of 1692 and terrorism of today. Terrorists of today are hunted and pursued because of things they have really done. Very very bad things that they have done and are doing and gladly claim responsibility for. The Witches of Salem and all those before them who were killed and tortured and worse, were innocent people who fell victim to the madness of others.

Resistor, you do make me laugh. I'll bet you see a vast conspiracy in the industry of peanut butter making don't you? Hard to scream out all those horrible injustices with all that peanut butter sticking to the roof of your mouth huh. lol
Let me dissect what you have just given us.
High tech lynching to convince the masses? I've never heard of you, friend. They haven't tried to convince me (or anyone else, I'll bet), of anything that has anything to do with you, and I'll also bet that no one on this site can claim differently.
You haven't been tortured either. Come on, seriously.
Poisoned? It would be a little difficult for you to post here if the government poisoned you...You'd be dead. Really really dead. The US government excels in this area. So obviously this hasn't happened to you either.
Deprived of property. Lots of people are deprived of property. Maybe you should pay your bills? If, that is, you've actually had things taken from you in the first place.
Deprived of profession. Perhaps you just sucked at your former job. I doubt very seriously the government was responsible.
Lastly I would like to make perfectly clear that I am a slave of no kind. I am not brainwashed. I have an IQ running 150 and rising always. I examine all aspects of information and evidence in any case I review. When people speak as you speak, like we're all just mindless little dummies...I refuse to believe you. Go put your tinfoil hat back on before they "get" you.
