S.1867 - Senate Moves To Allow Military To Intern Americans Without Trial

The following is from conservativebyte.com- This information is too important not to re-post:


The Senate is set to vote on a bill today that would define the whole of the United States as a “battlefield” and allow the U.S. Military to arrest American citizens in their own back yard without charge or trial.

Conservablogger's Remarks:  


Leave it to Senate Democrats to push a bill that absolutely violates the constitution.  We are protected from illegal searches and seizures... so what they did was legalize all seizures.  This type law would allow the government to 'make examples' out of people who don't conform with the establishment.


That is, anyone who stands for individual liberty, limited government, personal responsibility could be prevented from holding rally's in defiance of the current political whim.


This is blatant overreaching that we must stand against.
