Obama Orders Police To Detain Conservatives For Being Extremists According to recent reports, the House Homeland Security Committee just approved legislation that grants DHS and FEMA more power to arrest those that they consider to be violent extremists. The measure also calls for a new Office for Countering Violent Extremism, with the overly optimistic hope that such an organization will prevent Americans from turning into radical extremists and forming groups against the government. In the face of mounting threats, our government is doing far too little to counter violent extremism here in the United States, Chairman Michael McCaul told reporters. Whether it is the long reach of international terrorists into our communities or the homegrown hate spread by domestic extremist groups, we are all ill-equipped to prevent Americans from being recruited by dangerous fanatics. Of course, those who are already opposing the bill include more than 40 different civil rights organizations that claim that there is no evidence supporting that pre-crime prevention methods are successful. The trajectory of the U.K.s efforts shows how these programs can morph into outright censorship, a letter from the group reads. What do you think? Do you support the proactive measures to protect our country or is this going to be used as a weapon against conservatives and gun owners?
