WELL IT HAS HAPPENED. THIS MANIACAL SON OF A BITCH HAS OUTLAWED ALL WAR PROTEST AGAINST THE IRAQ WAR HERE IN THE UNITED STATES.
PASSED INTO LAW JULY 17TH. SINCE CONGRESS IS TOO WEAK-KNEED TO STAND UP AND DO THE RIGHT THING
In one of his most chilling moves to date against his own citizens, the American War Leader has issued a sweeping order this week outlawing all forms of protest against the Iraq war.
President Bush enacted into US law an ‘Executive Order’ on July 17th titled “Blocking Property of Certain Persons Who Threaten Stabilization Efforts in Iraq”, and which says:
I, GEORGE W. BUSH, President of the United States of America, find that, due to the unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States posed by acts of violence threatening the peace and stability of Iraq and undermining efforts to promote economic reconstruction and political reform in Iraq and to provide humanitarian assistance to the Iraqi people….
HL’s Take
Seems we need to define “acts of violence.” Is marching in the street carrying a sign an “Act of Violence?” So this may be taken out of context. Will have to see how this plays out.

It’s up to Americans to disregard the law and take matters into their own hands. No way shall American be ruled by a dictator. If marching on the street or protesting against tyranny is unlawful, so be it. The Bush gulags can’t contain America and will not stop the realization of tyranny in the White House and the US Government.

Thank god for the second amendment. which was put in place by our founders to prevent the government from taking over through tyranny, and force.

We outnumber the criminal mafia gang in the WH and we’ll end their stay in DC when people wake up and take action.

Um. I’m as paranoid as the next guy, and I really don’t see it this way, and this over-reaction will only serve to paint war opponents as exactly what the right-wing wants them to be. You’re handing talking points to the noise machine.
Calm down, will yah? You want to talk about something, talk about all the protesters (and standers-by) rounded up for the SUSPICION of MAYBE causing violence at the Republican Convention in Manhattan during the last “election.” That alone should be enough. That kind of coercion is worse than outright banning, because, like when you deal with a bully, it’s all about the bully blaming YOU for getting beaten. There can be no evidence of plotting, or that falls apart.
And, nagging in the back of my head is the persistent idea that you’re really part of the right-wing noise machine and trying to discredit any dissent. See? Told you I have paranoia cred.
