Ron.Paul made a good point during his speech the other night. This is not a quote but rather what I took from what he said.
When we are at war people tend to be more accepting of having their civil liberties and natural rights violated. What we have done now is declared a war not on a specific enemy but rather a concept called terror. This is an invitation to make this practice open ended. In theory, anyone can be declared a terrorist, grabbed without warrant, held indefinitely without due process, tortured, and even assassinated.
That is not a scenario I am comfortable living with.

Well done all of you wwho are fighting for those of us who cant be with you. Im sending my prayers of passion and power and angels to come and protect you from every corner. You are inspiring and you are the voice of God for his people against a corrupt and disgusting world. We all want peace, we all want justice, we want our world back, we want our happiness back. I just wish more people had the balls to do what your doing. Im fighting it mentally with you and asking for as many miracles and more people to care and get behind you as possible. Please dont give up - we need this - life, love, justice, hope, spirit and freedom are all worth fighting for. Big love to all of you - may blessings and love be with you, your friends and family.
God bless xxxxxxxxxxx
