and few to start off with and here is what you may be looking for...

http://www.cit.cornell.edu/oit/PatriotAct/present.html

Oh yes, good little citizens of the U.S., this won't affect you. Naw. In fact, you are good law abiding citizens, aren't ya?

Well, like I say...give it some time. I'm willing to bet...oooooh...in a few weeks, a poster from this board will be sharing their experience as to how "good law abiding citizens" became a target because of this act.

Now...as to the Dept. of Homeland Defense...I already broke my "go find it yourself rule". It's out there, read...hey...even from so-called "legitimate sources". I don't think I need to spin and opinion on all of this...it works it's own magic.

Should anybody "believe" that their government...their sacred honest U.S. government...won't abuse this?

They will.

Could be the Bush administration...could not. Could start happening soon...may start within your children's generation. The door is now open, and I say there will be abuse.

What has transpired since the enactment of this law and this department (and the upcoming laws and departments), will be no simple matter of dissolving with words or ballots. I predict much unrest in the U.S., not from fundamental religous or political groups...nope....from John & Jane Q. Public. And thank god for this law and department, because when they start raising their voices...viola...they can be labled "terrorists".

While you watch CNN/MSNBC/FOXNews reports about Laci Peterson and shuttle disasters....your freedom is being taken away.

While you see one of the greatest misdirections about "condition ORANGE" blinking on your sets....your freedom is being taken away.

While you hoot-n-holler for going to war with Saddam Hussien...your freedom is being taken away.

While you turn on your computer to surf the internet...your freedom is being taken away.

It's amazing, that very few here realize what the Patriot Act and Dept. of Homeland Defense represents....and what is now in place. For the rest who don't know...you have my pity. But when the steam roller comes, and it obliterates your sense of reality in your lifetime or your children's lifetime...I'll be the guy who sits with a smile and says, "I told you so".

Amazing...from people who broke free from the WTBTS and still don't see what has transpired since 9-11. Willing to fight to the last, in complete blindness, and still think that America you live in....is the same one prior to 9-11. And I'm not talkint about a nation holding grief and sorrow...nor unity...I'm talking about the nation who let their freedoms go for a false sense of security. The nation who is calling Iraq the greatest threat, when it was their own government who is beginning a rule of tyranny.

Hope it was all worth it.

And give it some time, for those who will now lambast me on this, for I will come back someday and say....

I told you so.

i watch the news and all commentators act as if our winning is a given.

yes, we are the biggest, baddest nation; we have the nukes, but what if?

Did the movie Matrix remind you of the Borg

by Fruitcake in

jw
friends

i am going to rewatch the movie matrix, because a member of this board said that it reminded him of the watchtower, and how it showed the wt to be a controlling entity that brainwashed its meek followers while others saw through the facade and fought against it.. the movie stigmata, about the catholic church, reminded me of the watchtower also...... maybe jehovah is using movies to speak to us, especially through r rated movies that they so warned us against..(or maybe i'm a fruitcake).

my friend elumn8 and i are watching a bunch of r rated movies now that we broke away, and we think we are learning something!

hurray...

D8TA

I guess one could parallel the Matrix as to their WTBTS experience. I have more of an outside point of view of that movie, encompassing everything in general on this planet. One That Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest is the one I relate to, when it comes to the WTBTS and my experience.

And I have my pillow ready for all of ya...heh heh heh.

i often wonder if micheal jackson ever visits here.

i mean, he has unlimited money and resources, so why wouldn't he type in "jehovah" one day into a search engine, and find this forum??

i'm sure he has some of the same problems we all did, especially being raised a jw.
