"...In Tampa the Republicans wrote off the Ron Paul vote, because they are enamored of power and its gratuitous demonstration. Can people so desirous of power and the thrill of its use be trusted to let go of power when they lose the next election? There are enough presidential executive orders and national security orders, even some signed by the Democrat Obama, that any president can assert them and refuse to face election.

Once Rome accepted Julius Caesar’s coup, the Roman Republic was gone. Those who tried to save the Roman Republic by assassinating Caesar failed, because the majority of the legions had gone over to the dictatorship, which promised them more money than the Republic had. Caesar’s name became the title for Rome’s dictators.

In the US, even your friendly local police have gone over to dictatorship. And they are armed with its tools. A friend, a competitive shooter for accuracy, told me that as he left his gun club on August 27, a local sheriff department entered in a military armored vehicle, something one would expect to see on a battlefield, followed by a large sheriff’s department truck full of military equipment. He says that the gun club allows local police to use the club’s facilities so that club members are not stopped and harassed about their firearms as they go to and from the club. He reports that the police will line up 30 abreast, with automatic weapons, not allowed to club members, and fire at one target, with 30 police emptying 30-round magazines at the same target. He once asked our protectors if they were practicing for some competition. The answer was, “No, we are preparing to control the outcome when there is trouble...”

Actually it seems to me that so many problems facing the human race are global in nature and will require global efforts- the ones that come quickly to mind are epidemics and pandemics, air pollution, lack of enough potable water and water to sustain food crops, climate instability. The problem is for the most part the world is led and ruled by criminals.

The more they can consolidate and streamline processes, the worse all of those problems will become.

Someone else had an article on here the other day about the police in Charlotte training with the military "in case we are needed"...

When in the fuck would we need the police when we spend 1t on the military? Oh ya, when the military is after 300m people here.
