Thinking for Yourself is Now a Crime--must read for ATS'ers
www.blacklistednews.com
 Harman's bill is called the "Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act. "When HR 1955 becomes law, it will create a
commission tasked with identifying extremist people, groups, and ideas. The commission will hold hearings around the country, taking testimony and
compiling a list of dangerous people and beliefs. The bill will, in short, create massive terrorism in the United States. But the perpetrators of
terrorism will not be Muslim terrorists; they will be government agents and fellow citizens. (visit the link for the full news article)

This must be read by all of us. Should we be careful of what we are saying? I didn't know what forum to post this in but as I am into Alt.News I
hoped most would read it here. What should we do about this or should it not be worried about? Has anyone heard this before?
I added the must read for ATS'ers to get attention out there. hope that is OK. Mods please check.

To take away someones right to think is to take away someones humanity, i hope for everyones sake this isnt true, with everything goin so politcally
correct these days this world is spinning out of control, what ever happend to freedom of speech? an now their taking away our freedom to think? very
soon we will become robots slaves to our own government, things are going wrong...very wrong, if this is true i only hope that humanity will rise
above and save itself before its to late.

Unfortunately I see this including freedom of speech. A lot of what we write, even on here, is what we are thinking. At least that is what I hope.
Things that we talk about here gives them all the reason in the world to at least look into certain individuals and check them out. This is a very
very scary thought. No pun intended. If this happens and you start seeing individuals being rounded up as homegrown terrorists, you know we are in
for a rude awakening right here in the US. Very NWO like.
I am right with you Wroath when it comes to not giving up. I will always speak my thoughts. I will not go down without a fight. I had the very
discussion with my wife today. If SHTF, I told her that I would not let us be separated or taken away from each other, whatever means necessary.

Thinking for yourself is your god given right, so yes i agree it would be our fault and so on and so forth. but as im sure u would agree you nor i and
anybody else for that matter would enjoy telling us what we can and cant think, say or do i know anyone who would try that one on me would recieve a
swift kick in the nuts, we have all seen an read stories about phone lines being tapped and the government an their cronies monotoring what we say or
do on the net, who's to say the home grown terrorism hasnt already started? id like to refer to the film V for Vendetta i think it shows a good
example of what may happen.

What is this bill intended to accomplish? Is this for the American people, or for some other purpose which has not been needed until this point in
history?

Well welcome to the club o fatherhood. Its a trip.
I don't know if I believe in a "Illuminati" tin foil hat conspiracy. But I do think there is jockeying and pushing for more control of us.

Who will be on the "extremist beliefs" list? The answer is: civil libertarians, critics of Israel, 9/11 skeptics, critics of the
administration's wars and foreign policies, critics of the administration's use of kidnapping, rendition, torture and violation of the Geneva
Conventions, and critics of the administration's spying on Americans. Anyone in the way of a powerful interest group--such as environmentalists
opposing politically connected developers--is also a candidate for the list.
According to the article, it is including anyone in the US. If that is the case, I am in a heap. I have a bunch of threads against domestic
spying.
Hopefully i am not put in a cage like in Children of Men.

sorry, link I included was same one as yours.
The article is just giving a warning as to if this bill becomes law. And if you think about it, why wouldn't it come to pass. The way all of these
things are popping up for domestic spying. This fits right in wouldn't you say? It may not go through as is, but after some reworking in the
wording, it will slip right in like most other legislation.

Thanks to the Soviets and Stalin who created ``political correctness`` for their own fascist purpose. Since at least 30 years it's used by ``nanny
state`` in UK, Europe and the US mostly. But I think that calling it Nanny State is changing the name of what it is... police state, a society run by
control freaks where any behavior against the elite's will.
You gotta love soviet tactics. The worse is that they are using the good will of the average people, that's the ``beauty of it``. You want to save
the earth? Let's kill a bunch of people to save mother gaia! Accidents happen in skiing? Give fines to those who go too fast while skiing.. and the
worse of it all is the bunch ``if you have nothing to hide...`` I just can't stand those.

That is not how your post reads. 
And that really has nothing to do with what is written in the bill. Now if you wanted to debate on whether the bill could be corrupted that is a
totally different thing altogether.
It seems your source is just jumping on the title of it without really reading what it is about. for I read...
Establish a grant program to prevent radicalization...
Establish or designate a university-based Center of Excellence for the Study...
Conduct a survey of methodologies implemented by foreign nations...
Prohibits the Department of Homeland Security's efforts...
