Breaking News: Your Free Speech is Gone and the draft is not so looney after all


H.R. 1955: Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007 has been passed in the House (Oct. 2007). The bill now goes on to be voted on in the Senate. Once this bill is passed through the Senate, it is signed by the President and it is LAW.


What exactly would this law do though?


Do you support the president? Are you anti-war? Do you want to stand up and protest anything?


Well not anymore – if this bill is passed. You will be considered an extremist for protesting (in ANY form), or otherwise going against your government in any way, on any platform.


Don’t believe me? Again – a direct link to the bill in the House RIGHT NOW.

STOP sitting back and letting the government happen around you.

Want to fight in a war? Want to be in the military?

TOO BAD.

H.R. 393: (Universal National Service Act of 2007) is in legislation as we speak. It is proposing the requirement that all residents in the United States aged between 18 and 42 carry out national service, and be available for conscription during wartime. It would allow no deferments after age 20. One other thing…


ALL residents, male and female, MUST register for selective service at the age of 18. Wonderful!


What does this mean to you?


If this bill is passed, you or your children will be drafted for a period of at least two years. Period.


I am a veteran of the Army, I served my 8 years, and I did all of that at my own free will. I, as a former member of the military absolutely think this is the worst piece of legislation I have ever seen. Is this bill even being taken seriously?


Evidently it was serious enough to be introduced to the United States House of Representatives on January 10, 2007. The bill has also been referred to three different committees and subcommittees.


Still second guessing me? Here is the direct link to the bill that is in Congress RIGHT NOW.

This is not some crazy email that is going around, this is the real deal. This is your government. The people who can make this bill happen are the people YOU vote for.


Wake up. Educate yourself. Be Heard.


VOTE.


Your rights are being stripped away right from underneath your nose.


Don’t disregard this as propaganda when it is in black and white on a desk in Washington right now, being reviewed and ready to be voted on. Don’t believe what the mainstream media is telling you. The time to take responsibility and take back your freedoms is now.


If you sit back, and watch this happen, how will you feel when your baby or grandchild turns 18 and is required to serve in the military or possibly a war?


Today Bush held a press conference while in the Mideast. He said “Iran is a threat to world peace.”


McCain just “won” New Hampshire and the media is painting him to be the next Republican candidate. At a recent rally, McCain said “it would be fine with him if we were (in Iraq) for another 100 years.”


If these are the kind of people kept in office, this bill will happen, we will keep occupying other countries, and your children and grandchildren will be fighting wars you didn’t try to stop.


Take a stand now – before it’s too late
