somehow throw a spanner in the works and cause a massive cost/delay to the government.

Are you asserting that congress would have actually gotten anything done during that time?

Yes. Congress is typically quite industrious at violating the Constitution and destroying civil rights.

I wish the partisans would STFU and realize this is a civil rights issue, not a partisan issue, for *everyone* regardless of political party, ideology, and/or religion (or lack thereof).

For those kool-ade drinkers defending the administration regarding domestic spying, do you want your political enemies to have this power to wield when they inevitably gain office?

Paranoid, much?

Those that would mistake paranoia with basic observational skills referencing events over the last 60 years are likely be on some type of 'agenda'. What some call paranoid, others are calling it 'having a big mouth', but you don't see that part now do you?

Don't bother. Just check Dave420's post history. He's drank so much of Leftist/Social Justice kool-aid that California is considering sanctioning him for the amount of water he wastes.

Hot air, nothing compared to the US self imposed brain drain caused by fucked up policy, gamed and broken system. If they don't want to see things that are better in the hands of other countries then they should rethink the way things have been going in the US for the last 60+ years. The policy of 'keeping the people stupid' is not going to produce a superior product in any sector anyway so where are these idiots coming from on this?

An economic/social collapse is what those in power need to roll out martial law and complete the final stages of the "fundamental transformation of America" to a police state.

You haven't laid out anything other than a bunch of baseless accusations. You should write a book about it, I'm sure it'll sell.

...We first teach them basic reading, writing, math, history, and critical-thinking/problem-solving skills that are sorely lacking among HS grads?

Oh wait, can't have that! The little bastards might figure out how screwed they are by the crony-capitalist fascist oligarchy and actually be able to change the status-quot!

Really?? Are you that stupid that you think the only way to change government is via violent revolution?

Not at all. The four boxes (soap, ballot, jury, ammo) are to be used in that order. So far we've tried soap, ballot, and jury.

Next, I would try peaceful non-compliance, but I'm not naive enough to believe that the government would not respond violently.

I think people like you are dangerous to any thriving society and downright deadly to any less than thriving society.

We do not live in a "thriving society", we live in a fascist oligarchy that is descending into collapse. You are delusional if you believe otherwise.

You will attract other idiots and eventually get them killed while justifying the jackboot tactics the government would use in response.

So, with heavily-armed domestic paramilitary units assaulting the homes of citizens for things like student loan debts and misdemeanors, just how much farther does the government need to go before you would justify self defense? After you've been rounded up and sent to a camp is a bit late.

Some twit in office will look at your writings and you will convince them that spying on citizens is just and reasonable.

News flash, Bunky. They have believed that for decades.

Let's just hope they think you are little more than a retarded monkey that doesn't need to get on the list.

Nice ad hominem. Down to the last resort of those who cannot defend their position, eh? Let's hope they don't believe that everyone will roll over and lick their boots as you seem adamant to do, as that guarantees they will proceed at full speed.

You will justify this by your own words.

Yeah just sit down, shut up, and comply, right? Attitudes like that are historically what have enabled tyranny to fester.

Let me translate it into a language you'll comprehend;

"Baa-aaa-aaahhhh!"

So let's be glad that the army we have ain't one where only people who really, really believe in the shit can join... oh wait.

Yes their indoctrination machine is infallible, that's why gangs in the US send gang members to join the US military for training, and why so many militia members are ex-military.

Wow, they don't need to send a jackbooted thug for you, do they? You're already in a gulag of your own making.

Won't happen in the US ever. Won't happen in the UK either. What might happen is an English version of Tiananmen square. Both governments will see it happening before it happens and it will be put down quickly. Thinking otherwise is little more than an invitation to be put down sooner than later.

Yes, abandon all hope.If we lick their boots convincingly, maybe we'll be the last into the gulag.

What army should we use to go up against their armies?

That very same military.

They are not all unquestioning robots. Many will desert and go over to the civilian's side, and take their training and all the equipment/resources/weapons they can manage with them, while destroying what they cannot take/use.
