VIPR Searches and the American Citizen: ‘Dominate. Intimidate. Control.’By John W. Whitehead, 7/5/2011 “They’re trying to scare the pants off the American people that we need these things... Fear is a commodity and they’re selling it. The more they can sell it, the more we buy into it. When American people are afraid, they will accept anything.”--Kate Hanni, passengers’ rights advocate “Uncontrolled search and seizure is one of the first and most effective weapons in the arsenal of every arbitrary government…Among deprivations of rights, none is so effective in cowing a population, crushing the spirit of the individual and putting terror in every heart.”-- Justice Robert Jackson, chief U.S. prosecutor at the Nuremberg Trials The transition to a police state will not come about with a dramatic coup d’etat, with battering rams and marauding militia. As we have experienced first-hand in recent years, it will creep in softly, one violation at a time, until suddenly you find yourself being subjected to random patdowns and security sweeps during your morning commute to work or quick trip to the shopping mall... www.rutherford.org/articles_db/commentary.asp?record_id=718

They can't be American's!!! To be so blind to the Constitution & BOR, they are Un American...
