25 Signs That America Is Rapidly Becoming More Like Nazi Germany
 

Hard to argue with most of the 25 on this list...
here's #25-Under Adolf Hitler, paranoia was standard operating procedure.

In Nazi Germany, every citizen was a potential threat and everyone had to be constantly watched for suspicious activity.
Of course the exact same thing is happening in America today. Just about anything you do can get you labeled as a “potential terrorist” by the government.

According to a new DHS report, the following are some of the beliefs and ideologies of potential terrorists….

-”fiercely nationalistic (as opposed to universal and international in orientation)”

-”anti-global”

-”suspicious of centralized federal authority”

-”reverent of individual liberty”

-”believe in conspiracy theories”

-”a belief that one’s personal and/or national “way of life” is under attack”

-”a belief in the need to be prepared for an attack either by participating in paramilitary preparations and training or survivalism”

-”impose strict religious tenets or laws on society (fundamentalists)”

-”insert religion into the political sphere”

-”those who seek to politicize religion”

-”supported political movements for autonomy”

-”anti-abortion”

-”anti-Catholic”

-”anti-nuclear”

And the definition of “suspicious activity” has become so broad in America that it pretty much covers 100% of us. In 2012, the following activities are considered to be “suspicious” by the FBI….

-shielding your computer screen from others

-paying with cash

-acting “nervous”

-using multiple cell phones

-requesting a specific room at a hotel

-traveling with a large amount of luggage

-refusing maid service at a hotel

-staying in your room for too long

-changing your appearance

At least 11 of the above could be included in the definition of a Republican. :icon_wink:

Did you just call republicans terrorist?

I think you did.

I think he actually made Katz's point. I don't think that's what he meant to do, but it's what he did. It's pretty funny.

I gotta tell ya, the list does sound like the Conservative Oath of Membership. I am not saying its wrong, but Republicans are very close to the list. The majority of conservatives on this forum have argued for many of the thing on the list. If this list is things to watch for when Identifying a terrorist, then we have several right here declaring themselves as Conservatives.

Look under the rocks at DHS and there are a lot of things you won't like - the TSA is the first thing that comes to mind.

The point is that the items on this list are things the government are watching in their hunt for "threats to the government".

This is what the article is illustrating. Much of this list is hardly what most people would consider threats against the stability of the U.S. Government.

Hence, the focus on and the suspicion of it's own citizens, and the resulting crackdown on their freedoms that gave rise to Nazi Germany.

No, no. I certainly did not have that intention. :ohdear:

More government equals less freedom, less government equals more freedom.

Kick them all out and start over. Pass the 28th Amendment, google it and see what it says. No more pay raises voted by them for themselves. You want a pay raise, put it on the ballot and WE THE PEOPLE will approve or disapprove, no more tax payer funded full retirement, its PUBLIC SERVICE not a CAREER field. Term limits for senators, represenatives and surpreme court justices. Mandatory retirement at age 75, thats when it time to go home, play with the grandchildren.

I actually feel sorry for those who only have the ability to view the world based on either an R or D pigeon hole.

Such a limited perspective must be really, really boring. Such a limited, narrow, shallow view of life which is much broader and more real!!.

A rather repulsive analogy!

Quotes of Thomas Jefferson:

"Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny."

"My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government."

"It is incumbent on every generation to pay its own debts as it goes. A principle which if acted on would save one-half the wars of the world."

"I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them."

"When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty."

"A democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where fifty-one percent of the people may take away the rights of the other forty-nine."

"A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor and bread it has earned – this is the sum of good government."

"All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent."

Only if you don't understand it.

I think it is because the government is for the will of the people and so many of us are more for the will of ME ME ME ME. If the government helps someone, then we all pay for it and many of us do not want to help anyone but our own close family. The liberals want to help everyone and then there are those that do not want to help anyone. Who's right and who is wrong.

The problem is that liberals want to help people with no strings attached and do it with other peoples money.
The government helps people to the point they no longer try to help themselves.
If you are a liberal and you want to help people then do it!
You don't need government to help, if that is really what you want to do.
Repubs want to help people to learn how to help themselves, big big difference.
If your really want to help EVERYONE then teach them how to do for themselves not where the mailbox is so they can get their government check.
I also don't believe liberals want to help everyone, just the ones that will vote for them.
