Mark Cella on Civil Rights

Civil Rights and Liberties Are Under Serious Attack. Without Our Basic Freedoms as Afforded by Constitutional Law, We Are Stripped of All Means by Which to Fight NWO.

Our civil rights and liberties have always been under threat and challenged, but never more so than in these times as the war on terrorism is the buzzword on everyone’s mind. Our government is taking away our rights under the guise of keeping Americans “safe.”

Add new technology to the equation, new technology that allows the government to invade our privacy any time they choose, and our freedoms are backed into the corner.

Americans of all backgrounds are feeling the threat against our rights, but none more so than people of Arab descent. We need to work together as one with the government to repair our civil rights and freedoms, starting with abolishing the Patriot Act.

Other ways in which we can protect our rights are by putting an end to the arrest of civilians without cause or warrant as well as prevent the secret detention of people suspected of terrorist activity.

And don’t forget repealing the phrase ‘probable cause’ which has led to the invasion of privacy in countless incidents anytime the government felt like taking a look. All of these policies point to the weakening of judicial power in the government, power the executive branch has taken over.

Americans, in the name of fighting terrorists, are now subjected to policies and practices that do nothing to apprehend terrorists, but do everything to take away our civil rights and liberties. We once fought for the civil rights of people with disabilities, people of color, for women, and for people of different religions. Now we find ourselves fighting for our basic rights that are clearly outlined in the United States Constitution.

Mark Cella on American Civil Rights and Liberties

Congress passed the Patriot Act in 2001 in an effort to aid in the fight against terrorism. This bill alone has destroyed and eaten away at many of our civil rights and liberties. The Patriot Act allows the United States government to detain and hold any foreigners they feel may be a threat to the security of the country.

The act also allows the government to eavesdrop on conversations between lawyers and their clients who are being held in a federal prison if it’s suspected it might deter future acts of violence or terrorism.

Under the Patriot Act, the government and federal agents are now allowed surveillance of e-mail and telephone conversations. They also have the authorization to search anyone’s home or personal property.

These operations, called ‘sneak and peak,’ don’t require a warrant or prior notification to the individual being searched. The Patriot Act has overtaken and overwhelmed this country in so many ways that it’s hard to fathom it’s actually happening.

This type of government authority is something we once expected of communist countries, but now we’re experiencing this extreme violation of our freedoms here in our own country.

Even though the government will tell you the curtailment of these civil rights and liberties are directed toward suspected terrorists, the truth is that all Americans are affected by these conditions. The atmosphere of war is contagious and there isn’t one person who isn’t affected in some way, no matter how small.

Our right to freedom of speech, to voice our opinions, has been severely threatened all around the country. On December 15, 2001, Janis Besler Heaphy, publisher of the Sacramento Bee, was unable to finish her commencement speech at California State University.

Heaphy made the suggestion that the United States government had gone too far in the curtailing of civil liberties since 9/11.

She was immediately booed by hecklers who resented her implication that too much was being done to retaliate for the attacks on 9/11 when in actuality Heaphy was simply exercising her right to freedom of speech, to make her opinion in a public forum.

In the case of Heaphy, the media stepped in and supported her right to freedom of speech:

“Many interpret it as a troubling example of rising intolerance for public discourse that questions the nation’s response to the September 11 terror attacks.”

- Geoffrey Mohan, December 20, 2001, Los Angeles Times

The Los Angeles Times was not alone in reporting on this incident. The New York Times and other major newspapers also made sure this story was heard, and Nightline on ABC News did a special report on Heaphy.

This is just one example of what’s been happening all around America. If you’re not completely for the war on terrorism and up to losing a few of your civil liberties, then you must be on the side of terrorists. How many more of our civil rights and liberties do we have to justify before many of them are gone completely?

Freedoms Decline Partly From Entertainment

Many Are Learning About Entertainment and the Dangers Posed to Freedom That Come From Spending Too Much Time Observing Fake Life Instead of Living Real Life.

We all live stressful lives and this is one reason we are interested about entertainment. When we return home from a hard-day’s work, we often relax in front of the TV, so we can quietly sit and let the entertainment think for us.

Entertainment is great and it helps us to relax and unwind. There are more TV channels than ever because of this, so many people sit on their butts all day that they get very fat and are unable to move.

Entertainment does have a dark side, and this is because there is so much entertainment available it is making the population stupid. Many of these TV shows are addictive and you will find that some peoples’ lives revolve completely around the TV.

Entertainment Causes no Thought About Totalitarianism

TV and films are making sure that we don’t have time to think about what’s really going on; everyone is too interested in watching TV. We no longer have the ability to think for ourselves because everything is given to us on a plate. There is of course one problem for the elite and that’s the internet.

The internet can be used for entertainment, and it can also be used to gather knowledge. As knowledge is power, the elite are not keen on us knowing any of this information which is why they plan to destroy the internet by 2012.

The elite are the mega-rich families from all over the world that are pushing for a single world government. It’s these rich families that have been behind many of the terrorist attacks to show us exactly why we need to do something to protect this country. It’s also the elite that have drummed up the idea of global warming so that we have to all pull together and do things as a team.

The elite have controlled the media for years, consolidation has meant that there are now only a few media companies. This means that the elite are able to control what people know and the TV is their greatest weapon. TV can be used to control us and make us stupid.

Social Engineering Perfected Through Entertainment

TV is a science that the elite have been perfecting how to use for generations. TV programs are now used to condition us ever since birth. Think about the number of TV programs aimed at children these days; these are all created to mould the minds of the young and to stop us asking questions.

As a result of TV, we will be much more open to being told what to do. TV changes brain activity patterns and is actually a form of hypnosis.

Entertainment is not scary; it’s actually what’s going on behind the scenes that is. If you dig around and start asking questions about entertainment, then you will quickly learn that lots of things are going on that we don’t realize.

TV is keeping us from asking questions while genetically modified foods creep onto our shelves. Our constitutional rights are also being violated, but we sit down and take it. Entertainment is stopping us from thinking, and the likes of Rupert Murdoch, aka the Devil, are using it to their advantage.

It’s important to start asking what entertainment is doing to our society and to find out what is really going on. We simply don’t know enough about entertainment and what’s secretly happening behind the scenes.
