I believe the police state began with civil rights and the drug war. Everyone let the police power expand endlessly in the name of fighting "drugs", all based on lies, misinformation, and ignorance.

If you are in the belly of the beast, it might be useful to know what kind of beast it is.
This set of interviews (Part 1 below) given by Kay Griggs is very important. It meanders and can be a little scattered at times but it is rare to hear someone who was this close to the "special ops" side of American military activity give their view of the lay of the land, so to speak. Ms. Griggs is completely sincere and believable in my opinion, though operating under considerable stress.
What she talks about is just one ingredient in the overall picture of a thoroughly corrupted system.

Your post is "shoot the messengerism".
I think she has legitimate reasons to be disgruntled, but people should hear the interview and make up their own minds. She's not a big thinker and is focused on "small stuff" like divorce issues in the military, unfavorable settlements and just out and out "terminating" disgruntled wives, but because of her location in the bigger picture, she is able to cast a very believable sidelight into a murky area of state control.

Im not arguing with you or doing any shoot the messenger nonsense. Im saying.. investigate this person and her claims before muddying the water of this issue with her statements. There is a lot of truth there and there is a lot of BS. I dont think most can sort through it and figure out which is which.

You're sending people off on a wild goose chase. Elaborate what you are saying.
A.T.S may be part of the problem considering my experince in this thread i authored. www.abovetopsecret.com...

How do we get rid of the police-state?
How do we return to a society based on individualism, personal responsibility, liberty, freedom?
