This might be the scariest bill I have ever read. So it looks I can be detained indefinitely without any rights. I don't get the Tea Party, who wrap themselves in the Constitution every chance they get but vote for this bill. I wrote both of my senators and told them, they do not have a prayer of having my vote after voting for this bill. Rubio is doing the rounds defending this bill. Our elected officials are supposed to uphold the Constitution and not destroy it. If our Forefathers came back from the dead, the first thing they would do is get armed and storm D.C.
The corporate controlled media dropped the ball on this one. We have to hear about Hermans, bitches and the only guy I know who could run a casino in the ground, moderating a debate.
When will the people in this country wake the fuck up.
Nothing like using the terrorist witch hunt to violate the masses rights.
This is actually a real thing, not just something that's been overblown. The language is just vague enough to be dangerous. And you're right, this is receiving zero MSM attention.
But I don't see how you view this as a tea party thing. The entire Senate, except for these 7, voted
for it.
Sen. Thomas Harken (IA), Rand Paul (KY), Thomas Coburn (OK), Jeff Merkley (OR), Ron Wyden (OR), Mike Lee (UT), and Bernard Sanders (VT).
