First they came for the communists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Jew.
Then they came for me
and there was no one left to speak out for me.
Obeying an order to deploy to war without a congressional declaration of war is obeying an unconstitutional order.
How many members of military do you know who honorably disobey that order?
How many of those same men and women will disobey an unconstitutional order to detain American citizens indefinitely?

The American people is almost there. It could all start tomorrow or 6 months from now or never. But IF they try to enforce this BS and use the NDAA on the American people, it'll very likely be the start of something really nasty.

Since Ron Paul is against this law, I am strongly in favor of him now. I have yet to hear how the other candidates stand. We need to support the constitution and our freedoms or we will have lost them without a fight.

The most dangerous thing in the world is peaceful protest because it denies the military of the ability to respond with violence,
That is the most Utopian fluffy BS , check OWS , the majority are peaceful , YET look at the violence dished out to them.
I respect your point of view , I don't agree with it .
Happy new year
