"Terrorism" Now Being Used As Excuse to Get DHS Inolved, Violate Rights

Webster's defines terrorism as "The use of violence and intimidation in the pursuit of political aims."

That being the case, you'd think that James Holmes and the Sikh shooters would have started making political demands now...

As the Patriot Act and DHS seem to usurp our constitutional rights, these events are simply being used not only in an attempt to reduce and regulate the arms ownership of the nation, but also to reduce our overall rights.

In actuality, the US government itself is taking these CRIMINAL actions (not yet terrorism, as no political goals have been defined) and turning them into it to pursue it's own political actions, which are an effort to disarm the citizenry and reduce us to serfs. The US government, therefore, is acting as a terrorist organization in some ways.

From there, comes intimidation by the IRS, gay rights advocates and laws (which give MORE rights to homosexuals than non-homosexuals), entitlement bills, earmarks, grants, "stimulus money," etc...

It's all tied together. We are supposed to be good little serfs for the big powerful government, who is nanny to the sheep all along their lives.

gay rights advocates and laws (which give MORE rights to homosexuals than non-homosexuals),

What? Sources? I'm pretty sure they're advocating for equal rights.

What they advocate doesn't matter. "Hate Crime" and other such bills give them special protections that straight and Anglo-saxon types aren't afforded.

Such as? Where are you getting these ideas and why won't you show them? Are there laws on the books saying these things?

Just for the record- I was right with you all the way until that part which I quoted in my first post here. Then.....eh.

Take as an example the repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell."

Originally, the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" philosophy prevented soldiers from asking each other whether they were straight or gay, and on top of that, soldiers were soldiers - they weren't discriminated against in terms of being inducted into the armed forces, based on sexuality, at least not officially.

While soldiers may find out one another's sexual affiliations through context clues and other means, gays can now express their gay pride within the military, which would be fine if the straight members could express their straight pride without being accused of hate crimes or accused of discrimination against the gays. This is giving extra rights to those homosexual members, and restricting those of the non-homosexual members.

The fewer laws, the better. Laws by their nature oppress and don't protect when you get past those found in the Constitution and Bill of Rights.
