What do Christians and veterans of the Iraq war have in common?  According to a new report by the Department of Homeland Security, they’re both signs of a potential terrorist.

Remember the stir over the MIAC reports labeling supporters of third-party candidates as domestic terrorists last month?  Remember the public apologies issues by officials who were not sorry for writing it, but rather for getting called out on it?  Remember the bloggers who warned that was the case as the rest of the country chose to go back to sleep and accept the fake apologies?

Well, here’s the same implication, issued this time by the federal government.  I wonder if they’ll pretend to apologize, too?  And more importantly – I wonder if, again, most of you will choose to  believe that they didn’t really mean any harm.

Wake up, people.  Wake up, get your head out of the sand, and look at what is going on in the world around you.  Your government doesn’t care about you.  Your government isn’t even yours anymore.  You lost control of it along time ago, because of your apathy, and now they have one goal – power.  They will continue to increase their power over you at any cost, until there is no one left to control and no power left to gain.

Do you think I’m overreacting?  Ask the decorated war veteran who finds himself on the no-fly list because his military training defines him as a security threat.  Ask the Christian grandmother who finds herself in a similar predicament, because her faith defines her as a right-wing extremist.  Ask them if they still believe their government has their best interests at heart, and then let me know if I’m overreacting.

It is time to stand up and say “ENOUGH.”  It is time to take back our government, and throw all of the self-serving, anti-freedom, anti-american politicians that have done this to us out on the streets on their arses.  I hope and pray we can do that through organized political action within the established system, but I am beginning to fear that will not be the case.

There is something you can do to help. JOIN THE CAMPAIGN FOR LIBERTY today – And remember – even if you’re not in the groups being persecuted now, you likely will be tomorrow.  If you don’t stand up for others’ freedom today, who will stand up for yours, then?

Edit to add:  Think you’re safe if you’re not “right wing?”  Think again.  “Left wing” folks are terrorists, too, according to this DHS report.
