Loggie;
Thank you for your posting from someone that has perhaps, actually, been exposed to what 'they' deem is a threat...when, for many, it's anyone that would disagree with status quo; whether or not it's religion or just being a gun owner...or someone that doesn't like the IRS.  Any of us can become their target while they play the game for control over the masses.  

I don't give a shit if they now target the Jw and their ilk...but I do care that it's about taking away freedom of expression - and perhaps one day might defend religion, because for all the political rhetoric in the USofA, there isn't any freedom of speech, for anyone that doesn't speak 'their' party line.  That includes myself and many others that are not religious.

It's not so much about the Jw, etc... as it is IMO, how government demands total control over every aspect of our life.  Just who is the "government" that are 'elected' officials making laws???  Not that I'm religious by any means but it does make me wonder if "they" might not be the evil spoken of.
Interesting topic...and time will tell soon in this country whether or not Obama is re-elected...or we get another puppet in the white house.
You see, even that statement could create problems for those listening and keeping record of everything someone expresses.

If so, so be it.  I'm tired of remaining silent because fear is the controlling factor.  Hell, I'll go down fightingsmiley: wink
