The anti-American way of life

I just finished reading a forum of comments about a new government entity called CYBERCOM, who's job it is to police government and civilian Internet use. Of course they say it's just a way to make the Internet a safer place, they say there's no nefarious reasons behind what they're doing and that it's just gonna be business as usual. WTF!? An agency to police the Internet? Not only that, but the head of the NSA (the agency that was legally spying on American citizens after September 11 attacks by eavesdropping on phone calls and emails), is now, also the head of CYBERCOM.

Personally, I'm outraged. It seems I can't go a day without hearing about another way they've found to either take away our freedoms, or take away our privacy. The government always seems to be working hard at those two things. They say there's a "war on terror", yet in the end it's the American people who lose their freedoms and rights, and who seem to always get the shaft.

It's actually sort of ironic, this "war on terror", and also the "war on drugs" that's never done anything to stop either one. Example: Afghanistan is where 90% of the worlds heroin comes from, this is the place where the troops are at, where they're fighting for our "freedoms", yet they will do nothing about the crops. Furthermore, the heroin growth is what the Taliban use as their main source of income. It's how they buy their guns, how they pay for plane tickets to the US so they can fly planes into buildings, how they pay for training new terrorists.... The government knows that yet it still won't do a thing to destroy those crops. The troops would rather say "we've brought corn and watermelon seeds for them to grow instead".... Are you kidding me??? Like they're gonna give up a million dollar industry for watermelon seeds!?

Not to mention that yesterday I hear about the new Federal Biometric ID card program. Obama supports it of course. This is an identification card that contains tons of information about you and me. It may contain your fingerprint, retinal scan or some type of DNA. Furthermore it will probably contain an RFID chip which virtually anyone with the right equipment can tap into and pull our information straight through the air. RFID chip? that's just another way for them to keep tabs on the people.

What saddens me though, is that the American people have been "trained" or brainwashed into believing that if they want to be safe then all their freedoms need to be taken away. And so many people are OK with it. Nobody's resisting, very few are standing up and saying this isn't right, and those that do are cast into the shadows and called "conspiracy theorists", or simply put, "plain loony".

Sometimes I feel like I'm one of the very few who actually see the seriousness of what's been happening. It's not hard to see, the evidence is mind-blowing, yet most people just turn their head the other way and tell themselves and everyone around them that it's "for the best", our government is "just looking out for our best interests and nothing more".

It's time the American people had a wake up call. It's time we started to do the research and look into what's been happening, and what the government is really up to. Do the math, do the research, see for ourselves and ask ourselves if we really want our kids growing up in a world where you can't even walk down to the store without the government watching and knowing everything we're doing and why. There's a camera on every street corner, they have full power to listen in on our phone calls, read our emails, they're putting RFID chips in our ID's, our clothing and potentially anything that costs more than a dollar that they can scan from a distance and know everything about us that they want to know.

It's not science fiction anymore, it's not made up, it's reality and it's here, and it's now. Wake up America! It's time to take a stand and fight back against Big Brother!
