Police State Targets Dissidents: Government To Impose Extreme Disruption Orders On IndividualsMac Slavo Their attempts to control the agenda and conversation have repeatedly been met with protests, both online and off, as traditional mainstream audiences migrate by the millions to alternative media and citizen journalism. But this obvious threat to the establishments status quo wont be allowed to go on much longer. A recent interview with the head of Englands Ministry of Home Security, the British counterpart of Americas Department of Homeland Security, shows just how dangerous open thought and free speech are. Home SecretaryTheresa May explainswhat the freedom-loving people of the United Kingdom can come to expect in the very near future if their online commentary is deemed to be hatred or extremist thought by the government. And this, as youll see below, isnt just about the UK, which has often been used as a Petri dish for global regulators who want to see what does or doesnt work on a smaller scale before introducing their policies and legalese in the United States. The police would also be given new powers to apply to a court to impose extreme disruption orders on individuals, using the same criteria. This could result in those targeted being stopped from taking part in public protests, from being present at all in certain public locations, from associating with named people, from using of conventional broadcast media and from obtaining any position of authority in an institution where they would have influence over vulnerable individuals or children. Breach of the restrictions which would be time limited would be a criminal offence. (BBC) An interview of Theresa May discussing how these new policies will keep Brits safe and secure shows the Secretary repeating the same talking points over and over in defense of her position. When questioned about whether innocent people just speaking their minds could get caught up in the extremist web, May goes to her default answer: What we are looking at is a situation where believe we need to take powers necessary to be able to deal with those people who are preaching hatred on our streets and that is an extremism which can lead others into violent acts. Of course not all extremists are violent and not all violence comes out of that extremism. But there is a link. There is a thread between this. And I believe we need to be able to deal with that if we are going to do the job we want to do, which is keeping people safe and secure. Unless of course you consider that a bi-partisan Congressional panel is now looking to impose similar restrictions on free speech right here in the good ol USA: A key Democrat on the Federal Election Commission called for burdensome new rules on Internet-based campaigning, prompting the Republican chairman to warn that Democrats want to regulate online political sites and even news media like the Drudge Report. Ravels statement suggests that she would regulate right-leaning groups like America Rising that posts anti-Democrat YouTube videos on its website. FEC Chairman Lee E. Goodman, a Republican, said if regulation extends that far, then anybody who writes a political blog, runs a politically active news site or even chat room could be regulated. He added that funny internet campaigns like Obama Girl, and Jib Jab would also face regulations. (Washington Examiner) Make no mistake. Such regulatory and legislative policy would not only target conservative web sites. Every single American citizen would be subject to its rules. Want to post a video with political undertones? Banned. Did you mention a political candidates name in your social media post? Banned. Did you send an email to friends and family promoting a particular idea that runs contrary to the traditionally accepted government policy? Banned. Are you wearing a T-shirt that upsets the politically correct crowd? Banned. And not just banned. In the United Kingdom you would face criminal repercussions. In the United States, as noted in the Patriot Act and the National Defense Authorization Acts, you could literally be swept up by militarized government SWAT teams and held indefinitely without charge or trial. A person engages in domestic terrorism if they do an act dangerous to human life that is a violation of the criminal laws of a state or the United States, if the act appears to be intended to:(i) intimidate or coerce a civilian population; (ii) influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion; or (iii) to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination or kidnapping. Additionally, the acts have to occur primarily within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States and if they do not, may be regarded as international terrorism. Source:USA Patriot Act We can see by the broad language how easily one can be accused of intimidation or coercion. In the end it really just boils down to be a matter of interpretation, and you could bet your bottom dollar that Federal prosecutors and secret terrorism courts will ensure that you fall well within the Patriot Act should you step out of line. In a recent piece penned by Paul Joseph Watson we can see these new regulations already taking shapethrough a redefining of terms such as suspicious activity. Purchasing train tickets with cash, exiting a train before or after other passengers, or appearing calm or nervous are all examples of behavior that Amtrak employees have been told to report as suspicious activity. A document entitledGuidelines for Amtrak Customer Service Employees, which was obtained by the ACLU after an FOIA request, lists a number of different behaviors that are indicative of criminal activity and should immediately be reported to law enforcement personnel by Amtrak ticket agents. Are you calm when purchasing a ticket? That could mean youre a terrorist. What about nervous? Do you look at little nervous? Yup, that probably makes you a terrorist, too. This is what the free people of the United States, the United Kingdom and the rest of the world are facing from entrenched elite financial, economic and geo-political organizations who mean to control every aspect of our lives. And be assured, theyre not war-gaming civil unrest scenarios and stockpiling billions of rounds of ammunitionjust so they can play target practice. Many Americans see whats coming and are taking steps to prepare for a completely different world. But most dont even have a clue. Your views and ideas make you an enemy of the state. In fact, the United Nations Charter on Human Rights addresses people like you, and despite the fact that our founders forbade international treaties for this very purpose, our government is a long-time proponent of these ideals and policies. The Charter talks a big game with, among other things, freedom of expression, the right to live peacefully, and protections to ensure you cant be detained indefinitely without trial until, that is, you reach Article 29, Section 3: These rights and freedoms may in no case be exercised contrary to the purposes and principles of the United Nations. So, as long as you tow the party line you can enjoy your freedom. For those that dont, one day soon these international and domesticlegislative implements will give them the pretext to come looking for you, as well as those who, as Theresa May stated, have a thread that might be connected to you.
