This week congress will vote on an act that will allow all Occupiers to be labeled terrorists. It is a part of the National Defense Authorization Act.

It is critical to oppose sections 1031 and 1032 of the NDAA. Essentially the law would make all Occupiers legally "Terrorists."

The Udall amendment, eliminates these unconstitutional elements. Supporters of the National Defense Authorization Act: Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) explained that the bill will “basically say in law for the first time that the homeland is part of the battlefield” and people can be imprisoned without charge or trial “American citizen or not.” Another supporter, Sen. Kelly Ayotte (R-N.H.) also declared that the bill is needed because “America is part of the battlefield.”

Yes, it is critiacl to oppose sections 1031 and 1032: "1) Explicitly authorize the federal government to indefinitely imprison without charge or trial American citizens and others picked up inside and outside the United States;

(2) Mandate military detention of some civilians who would otherwise be outside of military control, including civilians picked up within the United States itself; and

(3) Transfer to the Department of Defense core prosecutorial, investigative, law enforcement, penal, and custodial authority and responsibility now held by the Department of Justice."

But I don't understand where you get that "Essentially, the law would make all Occupiers legally 'Terrorists'?" Please state your reasoning. I don't see it.
