You sniffed us out, azxd. Congratulations. Go to the head of the junior detective class.
Yeah I'm going to bed. It's been fun, though.
Is it more important to bash LE, or seek the truth ?
And the problem with getting to the truth has been diverted.
Isn't the truth what is important ?

VERY scary, indeed.
Complete societal meltdown.
Utter chaos - the likes of which we've probably never seen.
An Obama dream scenario.
err...
The fervent anti-cop sentiment on the board is interesting, and even cute - in a certain way.
The response to the Arpaio findings by some in here (bash HIM, and turn a blind eye to Barry's illegal shenanigans) are in line with the overwhelming media response to the Arpaio findings.
Good company.
I will not argue that abuse happens, because I know it does ... But look at this thread !!!It is not "bashing LE".
It is addressing abuses by LE, and discussing the PROPER role and limits of LE.
All of which have been grossly exceeded.
Look at the daily threads on this forum. It's 100% negativity against all law enforcement as if they're some souless borg. It's ridiculous. That's not say that the law enforcement profession hasn't taken a precarious slide towards tyranny, but not all cops are the enemy. It seems that in some people's heads they can do no wrong and there is no legitimate worldy authority. Of course, when this joke of a civilization breaks down, I will be the first to defend myself and stick the wild dogs into the ground along with their 'inalienable rights.' Sorry, no appeal.
No Habeus Corpus for Johnny? Weep, weep

People don't like Arpaio for what reason ?
Why the attack on the messenger ?
I envision those being introduced to the concept the Oath Keepers began, might come here, read a few of these threads, and bail back to anyone but Paul.
I've read that Paul's supporters are his worst enemy, and at times I must agree with that attitude.Nothing against anyone personally, but each of us can make up our own minds about what is available to read on this forum.
An interesting perspective to say the least.They're not bad people but delusional, in clamoring for this seemingly unquenchable, abstract liberty which has never existed in any civilization or among any group of savages for that matter. Sometimes I think they feel confined by the limitations of their own human form because that's the disgust that is conveyed. Limits. There can never be any limits!! ROFL It must be a very hollow existence if you ask me.

Thoreau said:Law never made men a whit more just; and, by means of their respect for it, even the well-disposed are daily made the agents of injustice. A common and natural result of an undue respect for law is, that you may see a file of soldiers, colonel, captain, corporal, privates, powder-monkeys,(5) and all, marching in admirable order over hill and dale to the wars, against their wills, ay, against their common sense and consciences, which makes it very steep marching indeed, and produces a palpitation of the heart. They have no doubt that it is a damnable business in which they are concerned; they are all peaceably inclined. Now, what are they? Men at all? or small movable forts and magazines, at the service of some unscrupulous man in power? Visit the Navy Yard, and behold a marine, such a man as an American government can make, or such as it can make a man with its black arts — a mere shadow and reminiscence of humanity, a man laid out alive and standing, and already, as one may say, buried under arms with funeral accompaniments, though it may be
"Not a drum was heard, not a funeral note,
As his corse to the rampart we hurried;
Not a soldier discharged his farewell shot
O'er the grave where our hero we buried."(6)
[5] The mass of men serve the state thus, not as men mainly, but as machines, with their bodies. They are the standing army, and the militia, jailers, constables, posse comitatus,(7) etc. In most cases there is no free exercise whatever of the judgment or of the moral sense; but they put themselves on a level with wood and earth and stones; and wooden men can perhaps be manufactured that will serve the purpose as well. Such command no more respect than men of straw or a lump of dirt. They have the same sort of worth only as horses and dogs. Yet such as these even are commonly esteemed good citizens. Others, as most legislators, politicians, lawyers, ministers, and office-holders, serve the state chiefly with their heads; and, as they rarely make any moral distinctions, they are as likely to serve the devil, without intending it, as God. A very few, as heroes, patriots, martyrs, reformers in the great sense, and men, serve the state with their consciences also, and so necessarily resist it for the most part; and they are commonly treated as enemies by it. [Remind you of anyone?] A wise man will only be useful as a man, and will not submit to be "clay," and "stop a hole to keep the wind away,"(8) but leave that office to his dust at least: —
"I am too high-born to be propertied,
To be a secondary at control,
Or useful serving-man and instrument
To any sovereign state throughout the world."(9)

Well stated ... But some seem to prefer hate, and will allow it to justify the dismissal of truth.
Aside from promoting Ron's message of liberty and supporting his run for President,, this forum is about discussions of all things Liberty related.
The Police State is the most direct and immediate threat to Liberty.
Attacking the Messager? No. Exposing him for the Anti-Liberty positions he has displayed and doubting his reasons for this present "announcement". YES
I have no love for Obama,, but don't see this as any silver bullet either. Even if it was proved beyond a shadow of doubt and impeachment proceedings started to impeach him, it would have little effect on the police state or world events.
And Joe would be off killing chickens for the cameras.
Brain damage.
Biden?
lol
Why would he take over the presidency?
If Barry is illegitimate, Biden is, also, isn't he?
You really haven't thought this through have you?
I haven't?
LMAO!
Dude, you're the one who just said that Biden would take over if Barry is arrested.
No, that wouldn't happen.
