Gene's Footnotes

I have never been impressed by the messenger and always inspect the message, which I now understand is not the norm. People prefer to filter out discordant information. As such, I am frequently confronted with, "Where did you hear that...." Well, here you go. If you want an email version, send me an email.

Plan your escape

We know about the NDAA that Congress passed when no one was looking on New Years Eve.  That law lets the executive department identify "terrorists" and abduct them and keep them incommunicado. Chris Gibson voted for it.

The FBI has already identified Constitutionalists as terrorists which makes sense as they would threaten "the government."  (Not to worry, the government says it was never intended to control the population, even though it provides for it.)


Last week President Obama imperially announced he would "waive" part of this act of Congress, the part where foreigners can be grabbed. He did this in response to criticism of the law. The press did not catch, or intentionally report, that the prior section dealing with Americans was not "waived."  Personally, I hope he waives the law regarding income tax for Chek-Irish-American males. Why not?  He is king and control Congress and the pretty much the courts.

About the same time as the NDAA, the government mounted an attack on the Internet and had to back down a bit as the Internet companies, who caught on to the game, are more powerful than Obama, for now.

As of a few days ago, we have a new law that was presented as a pointless duplication of trespass law to arrest people protesting. (Oh, don't worry about it, we are told, it is only for stopping trespassing. I can no longer believe our representatives are this stupid, so they must be subversive.)

Of course, it is designed to create a federal crime of being in a place the federal government says is protected from the citizens. What do you think this is saying.  (I have an article pasted below). For example, the Secret Service now protects Mr. Santorum, so if you protest his statism during an election stop, you can be abducted, charged with a federal "crime" and disappear. Is this your country?  You think this cannot be so?

Chris Gibson, our new Congressman in northern New York has voted for the end of habeas corpus and freedom of assembly. He probably doesn't even know it, being an earnest person, but he is a statist,  so vote accordingly. There is no slack to give in protecting your freedom.

Much is done in the name of security that subverts that which assures of security. Scott Murphy was only tweedle dee. If there is NY primary, go vote for someone else. I do not even know. I suggest following local elections and planning an escape route.

The Republican statists votes, nearly all of them but for Ron Paul, are not decisions we merely do not like, as Santorum suggests by saying he had to "take one for the team" on a vote, they are the abnegation of the Constitution;  bills passed when no one was looking. It used to be one amended the Constitution. People have been distracted as the media is going on about free contraception for sluts.

No one says a word when king Obama waives a law passed by Congress. Do you understand? As Motown put it: You better think....

Either you are with the Constitution or you are with the subversives.  You have no more time to sit on the fence as the fence is being topped with barbed wire. As I explained not long ago, the barbed wire is pointed to keep you in, not keep others out.

Keep on voting, but be aware you don't tug on Superman's cape. Keep a suitcase near the door. The best of times is gone; it is now the worst of times.

Oh yes, it is appropriate to add Mr. Bernanke recently said the nation is headed for an economic "catastrophe." (Did you hear that on the nightly TV news?)

Maybe, some people will listen to their hero, now. There is a catastrophe coming, the government, as it pretends to be mad at the rich in order to get the votes of the weak-minded, is preparing to arrest citizens and put them in a gulag, the last source of independent news is under assault, illegal aliens are being courted as well as the Muslim Brotherhood.

The enemy of our time is complacency. The devil's greatest success is that he convinces people he does not exist.

Pass this blog around.

Latest From the Hill: Congress Criminalizes the Right to Free Assembly; Strips Basic Protections of First Amendment

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Amendment I
The Constitution of the United States of America
September 17, 1787 
It seems like every day brings us one step closer to a totalitarian police state, and today is no exception.

The Daily Crux and Economic Policy Journal have reported on a little known bill that was overwhelmingly approved by the House of Representatives (H.R. 347 vote tally 388-3) and the Senate (S.1794 passed with unanimous consent, no voting records were kept of which Senators approved).

The Federal Restricted Buildings and Grounds Improvement Act of 2011 essentially strips Americans of their right to protest and assemble in government buildings or on public or private grounds where events of “national significance” are taking place.

The summary of the bill clearly outlines the direct attack on our First Amendment protections which allow for peaceable assembly and public redress of grievances against our government or elected officials within it:

Federal Restricted Buildings and Grounds Improvement Act of 2011 – Amends the federal criminal code to revise the prohibition against entering restricted federal buildings or grounds to impose criminal penalties on anyone who knowingly enters any restricted building or grounds without lawful authority. Defines “restricted buildings or grounds” as a posted, cordoned off, or otherwise restricted area of: (1) the White House or its grounds or the Vice President’s official residence or its grounds, (2) a building or grounds where the President or other person protected by the Secret Service is or will be temporarily visiting, or (3) a building or grounds so restricted due to a special event of national significance. 

Bill sponsor Tom Rooney (R-FL) claimed in a tweet responding to grievances on the internet, that “HR 347 does not effect your right to protest in any way whatsoever. It deals with fence jumpers, not protestors.”

As it turns out, the two page bill deals not just with ‘fence jumpers,’ but also lays the groundwork for all protests, gatherings and politic dissent in any facility or grounds in the United States of America that has been identified as a place of ‘national significance’ or where the Secret Service is charged with the protection of an individual – ANY individual, whether it’s the President, a congressional member or anyone else of national interest....
