DRUDGE HEADLINE US MILITARY snatches PROTESTER

[Cocked _and_Locked]

There is no local or state police force combined anywhere in this country well enough staffed to effectively police this type of venue. A big thanks to the PA National Guard for pitching in to help when needed. That's what they do. One of the many things they do to protect your safety. Anyone not entirely supportive of the job our National Guard does, whether it be in in the streets of Pittsburgh or the deserts of central Asia is an ungrateful, paranoid, ignorant SOB.

JMHO.

Well heck perhaps they can get the U.N to come in and help next time. Just remember opinions are one of two things we all have and both of yours stink.

You're welcome to have a sniff any time you like! Maybe that'll help you learn to discern fact from opinion.

I hate these radical anarchists as much as you do, but what if it was you and I protesting Obama and his policies? Here is a video of people PEACEFULLY protesting in Pittsburgh - no dumpsters pushed, no rocks thrown, no people in masks and bandannas. And watch what happens to them - it could happen to us very soon.

What does this look like to you? General police control? Looks more like the Gestapo to me. This is martial law in OUR country, in Pennsylvania. And the LEOs are using helmets, shileds and LRAD trucks.

We're next, people. When we decide to take our tea parties to the streets, look what's going to happen. This is disgusting!

Check out frame 07:25 ... looks like somebody with rifle on the roof...

+1. We can all get on board when it is some left wing loony nut but what about when the tables are turned and it is one of us. We have already been labeled right wing terrorists by our government. Turning our country into a police state and especially using the military sets a precedent that may well take us somewhere we don't want to go. The military should not be used against citizens period. That is what we have the police for. As the saying goes. "What goes round comes round".


"First they came for the communists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a communist; Then they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist; Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist; Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew; Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak out for me."

"Congress has no power to disarm the militia. Their swords, and every other terrible implement of the soldier, are the birth-right of an American... The unlimited power of the sword is not in the hands of either the federal or state governments, but, where I trust in God it will ever remain, in the hands of the people." - Tench Coxe 1789

Get help, man. Before it's too late.

You are starting to sound like some kind of religious literal fundamentalist - Quoting the constitution instead of the scripture.
