National Guard Soldiers To Usher In New Year at Times Square, page 3

Wow, this thread is awesome. It's kind of like a sideshow!

Here's what I've picked up so far:

Distraught Cubans on rafts made of coconut trees, tires, and a bed sheet can sail in stormy weather to get into Florida, and pregnant, starving Mexican women can run across the border and escape border patrol - but there is NO WAY IN HELL that a well trained, intelligent, financed terrorist who lives to die in a Jihad will EVER be able to get in this country and inflict any damage! IT JUST WOULDN'T MAKE *ANY* SENSE!!!

We don't need our military overseas in other countries - bring them back home like Ron Paul says! He's a constitutionalist *and so am I!* but WE CERTAINLY don't need them in our own cities or called upon to assist a disaster! IT IS LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENTS JOBS, EVEN IF THEY CAN'T HANDLE IT, TO TAKE CHARGE OF THE SITUATION AND ORGANIZE ACTION -- *EVEN IF THEIR EFFORTS ARE FUTILE AND THOUSANDS WILL DIE* Military should be contained inside of their bases for good, no matter what! They are too much of a risk to the American people! As soon as one of them gets out, the next thing you know IT WILL BE MARTIAL LAW! OPEN YOUR EYES IF YOU CAN'T SEE WHY THIS IS TRUE!! --- think about it: Even if there was a foreign invasion, the military would still implement martial law, *patrol our streets* and put people in camps! HOW ABSURD IS THIS? IT JUST PROVES THE MILITARY IS PURE EVIL AND CAN NOT BE TRUSTED!

I also back the UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION *like Ron Paul* but if you want to CHEERLEAD politicians who carry out actions that agree with the constitution, THEN YOU ARE A SHEEP! Open your eyes! The first thing you know, they'll do something that is authorized by the constitution or a congressional authorized act ---- AND THEN ALL HELL WILL BREAK LOOSE! IF YOU CAN'T SEE THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS THEN YOU ARE AN IGNORANT SHEEP.

********* ATTENTION: PATTERN RECOGNITION **********

Person1: The Jews are in control of the United States and the Holocaust didn't happen. It is all a Jewish lie, just look at history! I'm not saying I hate Jews, it's just that they are all evil zionist liars and should be rounded up and deported from our country! Just look how rich they are and how much of the media and government they control!

Person2: You're obviously an anti Semite! Sure, there are a lot of Jews in the media, but that is simply do to their affluence in this country. Many of them come from prominent successful families. I know plenty of Jewish people who aren't rich, and they are certainly not part of some Zionist movement. Plus, there is a lot of evidence of the Holocaust happening...

Person1: No! You are a blind ignorant sheep! You are the problem with this country! The Zionists are taking over the world! YOU MUST SUPPORT THE ZIONISTS, SO THAT MAKES YOU AN EVIL SYCOPHANT!

..............

Person1: The government is an evil, corrupt entity and 9/11 was an inside job! It's all a government lie to take away our freedom! Just look at the Constitution! Look at the Posse Comitatus Act! This is unconstitutional! Politicians are all corrupt liars and should be rounded up and put in jail! Look at the things they do, like put the military on standby to "protect" the people! It's obvious that they want to patrol the streets and take away our freedoms!

Person2: ... but that is the purpose of the national guard. They are to be ordered to active service by a state governor in an emergency to respond to domestic threats and aid the American people. News years eve is a time when very large groups of people gather in times square to watch the ball drop. If there were to be only a few bombs go off, thousands upon thousands of people could die, and if there was a small group of people with weapons killing other people, it would be very hard for standard law enforcement to handle the situation. Many people could die. The state national guardsman are the state Militia and certainly allowed to help aid in a disaster. The Act you are talking about only prevents federal armed forces to be used by states or in normal situations. The Congress or President has the authority under the Act and the Constitution to utilize any and all armed forces within the US in order to respond to a disaster.

Person1: WAKE UP YOU IGNORANT SHEEP!! THIS IS THE FIRST STEP TO MARTIAL LAW! YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT. YOU ARE NOTHING BUT A CHEERLEADER FOR THE GOVERNMENT AND THE CORRUPTS!

In general.............

Person1: I'm scared of everything! I'm so scared of any type of authority! Please, I'm calling out for help but can't find any. I'm made of glass and fearful of the world! I might break if the slightest disturbance occurs which forces my mind to adapt to change from my ideal reality or a non-stagnant, calm world!

Person2: Hey, take a step back and look at what is happening. Use critical thinking and evaluate the information at hand in an intellectual way, not an emotional one. You'll see that this type of stuff is normal and you are blowing it out of proportion. They are merely standing by to assist/protect you if the need arises.

Person1: NO!! You're a bogey man! You're out to get me too! Haven't you ever heard Ben Franklin say "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." I won't give up my liberty for safety from the government during a national disaster or horrible bombing which kills thousands! Don't tell me I'm wrong, I can't handle it! GET AWAY FROM ME!!!! GOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
