My wife and II hear a report during the program that ISIS today has murdered by fire 45 persons. It is time that our President wakes up and does what is needed. Support Egypt, and Jordan and anyone else who wants to fight against this horrible scourge in the middle east. If we don’t stop these people in the middle east they will bring the fight to us here as they already are in Europe. Is that what our President wants?
Not only does he not identify the Islamic Fascists as Islamic but he will not admit that the people killed were not just citizens of Egypt, they were Coptic Christian citizens of Egypt. If our government is so cowardly that they cannot name the enemy or the ones they are killing, why do we think this government even wants to stop this horror from happening. It reminds me of the situation a few years back during the Clinton administration where we saw the horror of genocide between the Tutsis and their neighbors, the Hutu, who decided to kill as many as they could.
Now we see that our government wants to get jobs for those poor people who are poor and that is why they fight. This is total idiocy, I cannot believe that our State Department is so stupid as to think they can deny that this is a Religious War. These people are killing and raping and destroying because that is what the one they call god has instructed them to do. They hate with a complete and absolute hatred anyone who is not like themselves. I pray that this government will awaken from whatever drugs they are on and begin to actually care about the United States of America. If they don’t, we will be a 3rd rate country with no power to do anything, and may be living in absolute anarchy within the next two years.
I have to admit, I am angry. I see what used to be a great country, becoming a laughing stock. The Russians are laughing at us, Putin is acting because he knows Obama will do nothing or will go play another round of golf. ISIS knows we will do nothing about them, and our allies know they cannot trust us, they know we don’t have their back, we are just a bunch of hot air. Thanks to our President and the fools that surround him including Kerry, Biden and the rest of these nut cases.

Rand Paul gave some wonderful reasons why it is illegal to kill an American Citizen, on American soil. The Bill of Rights, Amendment 4 states: “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.” Amendment 5 states: “No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without the due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.
In other words, an American citizen, on American soil, may not be killed by some politician or operative of the government. If there has been no indictment, and no trial by a jury, and no judgement of the death penalty, yet our Department of (In)justice, Attorney General can’t give a simple answer to the question of whether or not a drone can kill an American Citizen on American Soil. This is not a Dictatorship, nor are we ruled by a King or Emperor. It is time and past time to rein in this government.
People including myself, have asked for the military to take a hand in protecting our borders, since the Mexican Federales fire on our people all the time, but our military cannot be used to protect our country. Here is the wrong in all of this, the military cannot protect us, but can be used to kill us in DIRECT Contravention of the Posse Comitatus law. This law was passed after the War between the States. It can be found in 18 USC ยง 1385 and basically says you cannot use the armed forces of the United States Federal Government as a law enforcement group inside the United States. This is why the very idea of having a drone strike against an US Citizen is reprehensible. It is morally bankrupt policy when it is used even overseas to kill a terror suspect, along with whatever innocent people may be around them at the time.
Write to your congress persons, your senators and tell them what you think about even the possibility of such an act inside our nation.

In 1865 in Mississippi there was a law that said: “No freedman, Negro, or mulatto shall carry or keep firearms or ammunition” What we find in this piece of law was that the KKK was able to terrorize, kill and maim people of color, because they were unable to defend themselves. Here we are again trying to take guns out of the hands of law-abiding citizens and leaving them defenseless. Don’t try to tell me that the police, sheriff or other law enforcement people will be able to protect those folks, it is a lie. If a person is lucky enough to be able to call 911 for assistance it will still take 5 – 10 maybe even 15 minutes to get someone to that location. The 2nd Amendment to the Constitution allows ALL PERSONS black or white or brown to defend themselves in the event of an attack upon their person or on their family.
Of course the more I see of politicians the more I understand that they want to hold complete control over every aspect of our lives. One of the best ways to do this is to make sure we are powerless to do anything about it. Disarming the population is the best and easiest way to control the population. History tells us this truth, in the beginning of our nation the British tried to disarm the people of New England, that lead to Lexington and Concord and the start of the Rebellion. As stated above after the Civil War there were a number of laws passed to stop black people from being able to protect themselves. I would suggest that you might want to take a look at the website for CURE. You will find much very useful information there.
I find it reprehensible that politicians tell us that we need to be disarmed to cut back on crime when the truth is that the places with the greatest amount of crimes with guns take place in, Chicago, Washington D. C. and New York City, as well as Los Angeles and other states in the West. It used to be that gun crimes were rampant in Florida, until they passed the Shall Issue law and law-abiding citizens started carrying concealed, murder and other types of gun crimes plummeted. Let the citizens of our nation protect themselves against the robbers and rapists in this land, and let the politicians begin to do the job they are supposed to do. The Constitution of the United States gives you and I the opportunity to rid ourselves of these rapacious politicians, who will tax and spend but will never care about those they hurt with their policies.
Wake up America, this is your country, it was built on Judeo/Christian principles, and it was built with the idea that only a moral people would be able to live under the constitution, only a populace willing to recognize that they have the ability to make a life by the sweat of their brow can actually live in a law-abiding society. The founders of this great nation, recognized too that God had to be in the forefront of our people, that was where morality came from, yet here we are in 2013, trying to destroy what this country is, by destroying the very foundation that was put in place by our founders.
Let me hear from you, what do you think? Is it right to return to a place where we are no longer able to defend ourselves, but must rely on Government? They have done such a great job with the budget, 4 years without one, with Amtrak, which is bleeding millions of dollars, the Post Office which can’t even deliver mail on a Saturday any more. I think we need to wake up and realize that if we want something done we must do it ourselves. The Government exists only to take more and more of our money, they grow, we lose, they will continue to grow and take more and more until we are really all nothing but slaves black, white makes no difference, we will all work to support the government elites.
