Nunc Pro Tunc: The Coming Day of Burn Barrels and Blessings

This is a standing invitation to my fellow Americans: If congress ever enacts a law mandating the registration and/or a production ban of detachable magazine semiautomatic rifles then you are hereby invited to the town square of your local community. There, burn barrels will be set up and we will publicly burn Form 4473s, FFL Bound Books, state and local registration records, and the sales receipts for every firearm in the United States. On that same day, FFL holders and public officials holding electronic firearms records will simultaneously erase those records, permanently and irretrievably. (Using special file erasure software such as Blancco, X-Ways, and Stellar Wipe, or though the physical destruction of disk drives.)
Spontaneous Gatherings, Spontaneous Combustion
This burn barrel day--likely to be held the day after the President signs any new draconian legislation--will include speeches, public prayers, and the blessing of those who have gathered by ministers, rabbis, and priests.
The core of the activities on that day will be stalwart public defiance of any new unconstitutional law(s), the open and notorious destruction of records that might be used to enslave us, and vocal public affirmations of solidarity of free men and women, in the face of tyranny. This will be a defining moment for America--a line drawn in the sand. We will forthrightly declare that we will not obey any unconstitutional law and that we will treat it dismissively, as if it had never been enacted -- nunc pro tunc. We will pledge ourselves to the defense of liberty, both individually and collectively. We will vow that if ever called to jury duty, we will nullify any unconstitutional laws, vacating the charges against the accused, in accordance with our long-standing right as jurors. (See: www.FIJA.org.)
The Law is On Our Side
We will publicly re-affirm some long standing precepts of American jurisprudence, to wit:

§ 195 Generally
The general rule is that an unconstitutional statute, whether federal or state, though having the form and name of law, is in reality no law(1) but is wholly void(2) and ineffective for any purpose.(3) Since unconstitutionality dates from the time of its enactment and not merely from the date of the decision so branding it,(4) an unconstitutional law, in legal contemplation, is as inoperative as if it had never been passed(5) and never existed;(6) that is, it is void ab initio.(7) Such a statute leaves the question that it purports to settle just as it would be had the statute not been enacted.(8)

Since an unconstitutional law is void, it follows that generally the statute imposes no duties,(9) confers no rights,(10) creates no office(11) or liabilities,(12) bestows no power or authority on anyone,(13) affords no protection,(14) is incapable of creating any rights or obligations,(15) does not allow for the granting of any relief,(16) and justifies no acts performed under it.(17)

Once a statute is determined to be unconstitutional, no private citizen or division of the state may take any further action pursuant to its provisions.(18) A contract that rests on an unconstitutional statute creates no obligation to be impaired by subsequent legislation.(19) No one is bound to obey an unconstitutional law,(20) and no courts are bound to enforce it.(21) A law contrary to the United States Constitution may not be enforced.(22) Once a statute has been declared unconstitutional, courts thereafter have no jurisdiction over alleged violations.(23) Persons convicted and fined under a statute subsequently held unconstitutional may recover the fines paid.(24)

Never Again!
Recognizing the many sad lessons of civilian disarmament and subsequent genocides in the 20th Century, we will make bold and forthright statement: Never Again! We will not submit to the unlawful decrees of tyrants. We will not meekly go their jails and internment camps. We will fight for our liberty, to our dying breath.
Come Armed, Come Masked
I recommend that all adults who publicly assemble at these burn barrel events do so armed, as is our right. And those who come armed should also wear masks, to protect themselves from malicious prosecution. I plan to wear a Guy Fawkes mask, but you can wear a bandana, face muffler, or the face mask of your choice. Joining you, also wearing masks, will be many mayors, sheriffs and their deputies, chiefs of police and their officers, town council members, clergy, and people of all walks of life. We vastly outnumber the tyrants. The tyrants deserve nothing but our scorn and derision. Their fate is already sealed.
Plausible Denial
After this fateful day has come and gone, FFL holders and public officials will be able to recount: "I had no choice. My records were taken by men with guns who were wearing masks!" (So they'll have no excuse if they don't cooperate with this nationwide display of civil disobedience.)
God Bless The Republic. Down with Tyrants. We Will Prevail!

Shotgun accidently left in truck...


Subject: FW: Eagle Scout Facing Gun Charge


Good for Jerry Falwell, Jr.
I love too the closing paragraph of this article....
Falwell called the boy’s predicament “disturbing and unsettling.”
“When you see a basketball player who is glorified for announcing that he’s gay and then you see an honest young man like Cole arrested and treated like a criminal for making an honest mistake – you wonder what’s happening to our country,” he said. “The culture seems to be completely disconnected from our roots – our Christian heritage and our Constitution. I hope the American people wake up before it’s too late.”

Liberty University Offers Scholarship to Eagle Scout Facing Gun Charge

Chancellor Jerry Falwell, Jr. says anti-gun zealots are vilifying student

By: toddstarnes (Diary) | May 2nd, 2013 at 03:08 PM | 27RESIZE: AAA
A North Carolina Eagle Scout who was expelled and arrested for accidentally leaving a shotgun in his pickup truck in the school parking lot has been offered a scholarship to attend Liberty University.
Cole Withrow was just a few weeks from graduating with honors from Princeton High School when he was arrested on Monday and slapped with a felony weapons charge. Withrow had been skeet shooting with friends a day before and had only noticed he had left his shotgun in his truck as he reached to grab his book bag.
When he realized his mistake, he went to the front office and called his mother. An administrator overheard the conversation and called police.
Withrow’s story has generated national attention. Hundreds of people have joined a Facebook community to show their support. And many local parents are upset over what many believe is a case of a young man getting severely punished for trying to do the right thing.
“You teach your kids if you’re in trouble or if you see you’ve done something wrong, go ahead and admit it,” family friend Kimberly Boykin said. “Be a man and it’ll be fixed. In this case, that’s what he did and he’s being punished for it. That’s not the lesson we need to teach our kids.”
Jerry Falwell, Jr., the chancellor of Liberty University, had been traveling through North Carolina and saw a local television news account of Withrow’s ordeal. He also noticed that the 18-year-old was wearing a “Liberty University” t-shirt.
Falwell told Fox News that he made a few calls and discovered that Withrow’s sister is a Liberty graduate.
“I was really impressed with what a meek and humble Christian kid he is,” Falwell said. “I thought he would be a perfect fit at Liberty.”
So the chancellor made the 18-year-old an offer he couldn’t refuse.
“I told him that we would give him whatever scholarships he needed to attend Liberty University,” he said.
Falwell said the university is willing to do whatever it takes to make sure the teenager gets a college education.
“The anti-gun zealots seem to be vilifying him for making an honest mistake,” he told Fox News. “We want to reward him for trying to do the right thing.”
And that means even helping the young man finish his last few weeks of high school. Falwell said they offered to let him finish his high school work through their online academy.
Liberty University, located in Lynchburg, Va., is the world’s largest Christian university with nearly 100,000 students. The chancellor said he’s been flooded with messages of support for Withrow from the Liberty community.
“It’s something our whole university feels good about,” he said.
For now Withrow, who had a spotless record, faces a precarious future. It’s unclear at this point how the pending criminal charges will be worked out.
Falwell called the boy’s predicament “disturbing and unsettling.”
“When you see a basketball player who is glorified for announcing that he’s gay and then you see an honest young man like Cole arrested and treated like a criminal for making an honest mistake – you wonder what’s happening to our country,” he said. “The culture seems to be completely disconnected from our roots – our Christian heritage and our Constitution. I hope the American people wake up before it’s too late.”

AFP Salem Member blasts gun grabbers...


Excellent testimony from someone who has experienced losing your gun rights and then your freedom.  How many of you have taken the time to email, fax, phone or write a letter to save your gun rights before the Democratic controlled House committee takes your rights away with the help of our Democratic Governor.  Why is it every time we seem to lose some of our constitutional rights it is at the hands of the Democratic law breakers currently in power.  Next time you vote I hope you consider what I just stated.

Gun control news update...


Dear Henry,

Tomorrow, you and I get our first look at the gun control monster President Barack Obama and his anti-gun pals have been building behind closed doors . . .

Make no mistake -- this will be the biggest fight over our gun rights in a generation, and you will have a critical role to play.

In fact, U.S. Senator and NAGR member Rand Paul has thrown down the gauntlet.

Please take a quick look at some recent statements he made regarding this critical fight.


I’ll be sending you an update on exactly what we’re facing once the full details of President Obama’s anti-gun schemes are released tomorrow.

But from the news already trickling out, I can tell you that what I’m hearing isn’t good.

The Obama administration is preparing to launch all-out WAR on our gun rights, including:
*** The Feinstein Gun Ban;
*** A full-scale national gun registration scheme hidden under the guise of “background checks;”
*** A total ban on magazines holding more than 10 rounds.
All in all, there are 19 anti-gun measures President Obama will pursue.

You and I have to FIGHT BACK with everything we have.

The future of our gun rights will depend on it.

For Freedom,

Dudley Brown
Executive Vice President
P.S. The Obama administration is preparing to launch all-out WAR on our gun rights. You and I will get our first look at their gun control monster tomorrow.

Make no mistake -- this will be the biggest fight over our gun rights in a generation.

If you possibly can, please chip in $10 or $20 to help the National Association for Gun Rights FIGHT BACK.

Guns save lives...





Henry,

I'm sure you've heard the old saying before: "When seconds count, the police are only minutes away."

This couldn't be more true than in the case of Sarah McKinley, a young Oklahoma mother who recently defended herself and her infant child from two intruders who broke into her home.

Ms. McKinley didn't fight off these violent thugs with a knife or a broom, she used a good old fashioned shotgun.

You might have something similar in your home right now.

I know I do.

I have a strong-held belief that you have a God-given right to defend yourself, your property and your family -- and you shouldn't have to ask the government for permission to do so.

The Second Amendment is just that simple. You and I have "the right to keep and bear arms" -- period, end of story.

I'm not sure how familiar you are with the National Association for Gun Rights (NAGR). If you are not, let me introduce myself and the organization I spend every day of my life leading . . .

My name is Dudley Brown and I am the Executive Vice President of NAGR. I have fought for the Second Amendment rights of individuals like Sarah McKinley for more than 20 years.

During that time, a few passionate defenders of our Second Amendment rights and myself joined together to form the National Association for Gun Rights.

As I type this, NAGR counts over 1.5 million members and supporters, forming the fastest-growing and most effective gun rights organization in the country.

Click on the link below to check out our website:

www.nationalgunrights.org

Patriots like Sarah McKinley epitomize the type of folks who make up the National Association for Gun Rights.

I know this for a fact, I've met thousands of our members and supporters -- personally -- at gun shows, conferences and banquets.

You see, when I hear statistics like the fact that 90 million Americans own firearms, it warms my heart.

Many of those 90 million are folks just like you and me who know that there is no better personal protection than ourselves.

With all that positive, warm and fuzzy news, I do have some bad news.

The right to defend yourself and your family has never been under greater attack.

I'm not talking about a few radical left-wingers throwing pebbles at us on the playground...

I'm talking about billionaires with political tanks and media machine guns. Our opponents are well-funded and well-armed.

After all, those who are seeking to take our Second Amendment rights away are funded by the likes of George Soros and billionaire New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg.

But I never lose sight of the fact that there are more of you and me than there are of them.

If they want a battle, we're ready. If they want to take away my right to defend myself and my family, I'm going to be standing in the gap.

That's what we are all about here at the National Association for Gun Rights. You and I are the last line of defense, just like Sarah McKinley was the last line of defense for her and her child.

I want to thank you for giving me a minute or two to explain why the National Association for Gun Rights is so passionate about defending your Second Amendment rights.

No, we aren't inside-the-beltway lobbyists perched high above Washington, D.C. in a multi-million dollar crystal palace headquarters.

This organization is made up of folks just like you -- patriotic Americans who don't mind rolling up your sleeves and taking a bare knuckle approach to defending our rights and liberties.

Thanks again for your time.

More gun grabbing...

Grassroots Movement Stops Anti-Gun Company in PA... without Firing a Single Shot
In an amazing turn of events, just days after Obama's re-inauguration, Americans are realizing that big government power seekers and Second Amendment bashers are out to steal one of our most precious Constitutional rights forever. And the public reaction to this latest escalation of federal intrusion into our basic freedoms is not going so well for the perps in power.

Public reaction against this rampant gun grabbing falls far short of a full-scale Constitutional revival, but it may be a starting point.

Take the abrupt cancellation of the most popular national gun show, the 58th Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show (ESOS) in central Pennsylvania. It collapsed due to a vendor boycott over the banning of popular AR rifles from the show – the walkout was led by the NRA and 171 other major display vendors.

In the gun and sporting world, the cancellation of this long-standing national event is the equivalent of nixing the Super Bowl!

The economic impact of the cancellation of this show on the blighted Harrisburg area (the city itself is bankrupt and pleading for a state bailout) is estimated to be in excess of $44 million.
Have Gun Grabbers Awakened a Sleeping Giant?
Let me give you a bit more background to convey the full impact of this event.

Every February, Harrisburg hosts the 9-day Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show – one of the largest gun and outdoor shows in the country. This year more than 1,400 hunting, fishing, and outdoor sports vendors were scheduled to promote their offerings from February 2-10. That is, until Reed Exhibitions – the British-based promoter of the show – arbitrarily decided on January 15 to ban vendors from offering tactical modern sporting rifles (such as the AR-15 and AK-47) at the show.

These guns have been disparaged as "assault rifles" by Barack Obama, Dianne Feinstein, and others who detest your Second Amendment rights.

Reed Exhibitions claimed that this decision would "only" affect about five vendors at the show, and said they didn't think it would be a big deal. But that opinion quickly blew up in their company officials' faces, as a number of vendors and exhibitors saw this as another assault on their rights. Dozens of vendors decided to drop out of the show and reject Reed's anti-gun agenda; a Facebook page was quickly created to support this decision.

Especially if you have 'nothing to hide.'

NOTICE: The free briefing linked here was lawfully compiled through research of unclassified internal government documents meant for police use only. The shocking details reveal only a small segment of creepy central-government policing. Access this jaw-dropping briefing right now!

Is Kowtowing to Gun Grabbers Becoming Politically Risky?
One comment on the page seemed to speak for all vendors in favor of the boycott:
    "It doesn't matter if only one exhibitor was going to bring AR-type rifles, it's the principle of the thing... He is catering to the far-left agenda and throwing us gun owners/sportsmen under the bus. Well, let's throw him under the bus and not support someone that won't support us."
This "shot heard around the sporting world" spread like wildfire via social media. The National Rifle Association, Olympic air rifle gold medalist Jamie Gray, and dozens more groups joined the boycott. National sports and outdoor retailer Cabela's joined in, and the boycott's momentum grew quickly and powerfully. By January 24, three-hundred vendors announced they would not be a part of this year's show.

Rather than host a party where no one was going to show up, Reed Exhibitions threw up the white flag and announced on its website that it would "postpone" this year's Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show indefinitely. Odds of the show being rescheduled, especially by Reed Exhibitions, appear dim.

Reed wasted no time pointing fingers at those who stood up for the Second Amendment, blaming their own customers for creating an "emotionally charged atmosphere":

"It has become very clear to us after speaking with our customers that the event could not be held because the atmosphere of this year's show would not be conducive to an event that is designed to provide family enjoyment.

"It is unfortunate that in the current emotionally charged atmosphere this celebratory event has become overshadowed by a decision that directly affected a small percentage of more than 1,000 exhibits showcasing products and services for those interested in hunting and fishing."
Keep Up the Pressure on Gun Grabbers!
The above statement shows that Reed is in denial; their PR is designed to "spin" the real facts and justify Reed's decision. In reality, it's a great victory for champions of the Second Amendment, and proof that individuals and businesses who work together and stand on principle can make a difference.

The effects of this boycott are even greater and go beyond just the Harrisburg area. It could affect Reed Exhibitions' bank account in at least another gun show around the country. The National Shooting Sports Foundation, a firearms trade association based in Newtown, Conn., issued a statement after the show was postponed:

"In the days following Reed Exhibitions' announcement that modern sporting rifles would be prohibited from the Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show, the leadership of the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) has been in intense, frank discussions with Reed Exhibitions management in an effort to reverse this unacceptable decision. These discussions reached an impasse. NSSF is in no way affiliated with, nor does it participate in or exhibit at this show in any way."

The NSSF also owns the annual SHOT Show that Reed managed in January in Las Vegas. Because of its policy at the Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show, the NSSF said it is "considering all options regarding the management of future SHOT Shows."

Plus... the effects of this decision extend to city and county governments around the country. Gun and outdoors shows are among the most profitable trade shows in America today.

According to David DuBois, President and CEO of the International Association of Exhibitions and Events, attendance at gun shows has increased 15-30% in recent years. According to the Hersey/Harrisburg Regional Visitors Center, the Eastern Outdoors Show was expected to bring an estimated $44 million in direct spending to the region.
Gun Shows Have Broad Public and Community Support
A sizable number of gun shows are held in publicly-owned venues. The ESOS has long been held in the state-owned Farm Show Arena. In today's sluggish economy, cash-strapped governments are desperate for every source of revenue they can get their hands on. Firearms is one of the few thriving industries in the United States, and every show brings a much-needed economic boom of anywhere from thousands to tens of millions of dollars to a town, city, or state.

Even the most liberal states, cities, or counties will be hard-pressed to turn down these infusions of cash to stand by their anti-gun politics. Dallas and Austin, Texas recently considered banning gun shows at their city-owned convention centers, but these anti-gun efforts were dropped.

This strong and sudden show of economic power will make government officials and gun show promoters think twice about making similar decisions to the one Reed Exhibitions made in Harrisburg. While you won't hear this reported much (if at all) in the mainstream media, it's worth saying again: This is a victory for pro-Second Amendment forces around the country!

In less than two weeks, this non-violent grassroots effort that started in Pennsylvania harnessed the power of the marketplace – and stopped anti-gun forces in their tracks. This provides a bright beacon of hope that our Constitutional rights can be preserved without violence or civil unrest.

The country's political direction has definitely gone far left. But one benefit of that shocking development is the rise of self awareness among the half of the country that disagrees with loony liberalism run amok.
Yours in Freedom,

CODE RED ALERT FOR LAW-ABIDING AMERICANS ONLY
Down Arrow
Read this urgent
communication NOW.
Especially if you have
"nothing to hide."
Down Arrow
NOTICE: This briefing was lawfully compiled through research of unclassified internal government documents meant for police use only. The shocking details which follow reveal only a small segment of creepy central-government policing...
Dear Valued Reader:
Having" nothing to hide" has now made you a big, fat target.
That's because the permanent, unelected Washington bureaucracy is quietly setting up a massive national system to identify, classify, and control politically incorrect segments of the population. Far, far beyond the realm of legitimate law enforcement.
You need to know what I am about to tell you, especially if you are a law-abiding individual. Your instinct may be to ignore or deny this danger, but doing so is actually more hazardous, for the disturbing reasons I show you shortly.
Consider just one very typical new federal" pilot program." If you are observed regularly paying cash for a cup of coffee, it's now officially a matter of law enforcement interest, as explicitly mandated in quasi-secret documents prepared and distributed by the U.S. Dept. of Justice bureaucracy.
Here's the actual document being distributed to coffee shop workers nationwide:
FBI Directive - Against Cash Users
The fine print says that coffee buyers who pay cash (among a dozen other so-called "Potential Indicators of Terrorist Activities")" could be innocent and must be examined by law enforcement professionals [emphasis is mine]..."
Coffee shop employees are told that turning in descriptions and license plate numbers of cash-paying" offenders" will "make a positive contribution to the fight against terrorism."
Please understand – I'm not singling this out as an extreme example from the latest FBI/Justice Dept. initiative. In fact, it is absolutely typical of new rules against scores of routine behaviors carried out by normal people like you and me – behaviors that the FBI now says it wants to track, record, and analyze for the purposes of" threat assessment."
Crony Capitalists Buy Into Cashless Society and
Covert FBI Citizen Tracking System
Call it a coincidence if you like, but as I write this bulletin, Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz just did a live, nine-minute interview with Charlie Rose on CBS This Morning to declare that his company has deemed cash" obsolete," urging customers to pay for their $4 lattes with a whiz-bang new cellphone app.
This is not a fluke. The degree to which central government power is expanding behind this national system's construction is astonishing. The FBI is seeking and getting the cooperation of many in the private sector to help build police-state infrastructure.
Which is why you absolutely, positively, must handle this totally shocking briefing with extreme discretion.
You see, what I am about to reveal won't be found anywhere else. And after you are done going through this briefing, there are several critical advantages that you will enjoy over 99% of all other Americans:
  • ADVANTAGE #1: You will greatly reduce your chances of becoming a" person of interest" to all levels of law enforcement. To do that, you need to know exactly how federal agencies now identify Americans they feel need" closer scrutiny."
  • ADVANTAGE #2: You will have greatly insulated yourself against brand new regulatory and legal dragnets designed to trap and fleece law-abiding Americans.
  • ADVANTAGE #3: You will be well ahead of sweeping changes that will likely restrict your ability to buy ammo from Internet and retail vendors, to make private trades, to travel freely, and even use your cell phone and computer privately.
The population monitoring and control infrastructure being erected right now is on a scale equivalent to the building of the U.S. Interstate Highway system in the 1950s. But instead of helping you get from Point A to Point B, this major and permanent new element of American infrastructure is going to track you from Point A to Point B, and anywhere else you go, for any law-enforcement fishing expedition.
Here's the rub: Washington's new command and control structure is being built on the very same surveillance technologies, social controls and policing tactics our armed forces developed and perfected for the military occupation of Iraq.
Except that this system is run by civilian bureaucrats at the Department of Homeland Security and TSA and directed straight at us – right here on American soil. Let's look at just one highly secret federal project that is being kept out of the public eye.
Such as the massive data-processing and domestic communications traffic-monitoring mega-center just now being completed in Utah – a million square foot national clearinghouse for locally run mini-CIA" fusion centers" being set up in local communities throughout the country.
Look, as an investigative reporter I tend to be jaded about politics. To the point that very few things the political class does upset or alarm me anymore. Much less surprise me.
In fact," tuning out" alarmists and conspiracy theory extremists is second nature to me. That said, this trend literally scares the dickens out of me.
Because what I am about to shock you with goes far beyond legitimate police work.
Tracking Everyone, Everywhere, 24/7
No, the surveillance and population control" building blocks" being put into place are about bureaucrats proactively identifying and classifying a massive number of people.
In advance of any crime. On the assumption of guilty until proven innocent. Based on a secret federal review of their finances, privacy choices, personal transactions, personal and professional affiliations, and political and religious beliefs.
"Okay," you say," I have nothing to hide."No problem, right?
Wrong! Many official government documents I've uncovered specifically zero in and denigrate those who are not popular with the massive federal establishment and its armies of corrupt vested interests.
Please stick around for the stomach-turning details. Because while you probably don't want to hear it, you need to anyhow. Do it for your family.
Listen, I promise not to waste your time. What I am talking about goes way beyond the massive deployment of spy drones here in the U.S. that yes, has made some news.
You need to know what Uncle Sam and his legions of high-tech crony capitalists are doing to strip you of your freedom -- so you can at least take a few protective actions.
Simply being made aware to the technologies, techniques, and tactics being used to monitor, record, and analyze your daily activities is going to help you lawfully avoid many of them. In addition, reading and acting on this bulletin will help equip you with practical steps to safeguard your liberty whenever possible. More on that in a moment.
Ironically, a major driving force behind all the militarization of policing here in America is the wind-down of the Afghan and Iraq conflicts.
Legions of politically connected high-tech companies that built population control systems for the military occupation of these countries were at risk of not having a reason to exist, and worse, of losing their biggest source of taxpayer-guaranteed profit.
Unfortunately, these are very well connected interests. And like all lobbies, they need a huge new mission to justify their existence and expand.
"Big Sis" Secretly Repurposes Military-Industrial
Capabilities for Civilian Population Control
Enter Janet Napolitano's Department of Homeland Security – which has put numerous high-tech companies that helped the military set up population-control systems in Iraq to work doing the same thing here at home.
The end result you have to concern yourself with is the birth of an iron triangle of powerful interests that are heavily vested in unprecedented levels of federally directed policing of the general public.
For example, a recent Wall Street Journal story," High Tech Surveillance Comes to Small Towns," spotlighted the proliferation of high-tech trade shows that cater to the urgent central planning agenda of the federal government, especially Homeland Security.
These citizen-tracking technology expos are attracting small-town police departments -- many of which are flush with federal grant money and a long shopping list for the most advanced and prestigious new military weapons being made available to them.
High-tech companies selling these intrusive surveillance and crowd control technologies do so at secretive conferences; they just don't want you to know the extent to which local law enforcement is becoming part of the national civilian surveillance architecture and increasingly militarized. But I want you to know, and fortunately a few national news outlets like The Wall Street Journal are also unafraid to ask probing questions.
The Journal goes on to report that small sheriffs' departments are particularly enthusiastic about the most popular training sessions offered by these trade show organizers, such as" Online Social Media and Internet Investigations" and" Exploiting Computer and Mobile Vulnerabilities for Electronic Surveillance."
You may have even noticed that many local law enforcement departments around the country are already engaged in major" mission creep" to justify their new surveillance capabilities and other resources. They are proactively looking for extremist or criminal activity on Internet trading forums, such as Craigslist.
New FOIA documents show TSA is planning a national campaign to expand Mobile Body Scanners to train stations and all forms of ground transportation. Part of a broader TSA program to expand road and highway checkpoints across the nation.
The agency's so-called VIPR (Visible Intermodal Prevention and Response) system is part of a federal program known as" Checkpoint USA," where VIPR teams" screen" travelers.
James Bond Toys and Tactics Being
Pushed to Local Law Enforcement
Here is a rundown of a few of the high-tech surveillance systems in the planning stages or being supplied to local police departments and regulatory bodies by federal bureaucrats:
  • Car makers are being" encouraged" to install black-box tracking systems in all new cars.
  • Some $31 billion has been spent since 2003 to create" mini-CIA" domestic" Fusion Centers" – where local police monitor the political activities of private citizens, then send that data to Washington. Considering that" constitutionalists" and" patriots" are identified in federal documents as possible terror threats who should be watched, these fusion centers are a genuine cause for concern.
  • Major grants are going to local police departments for license-plate readers to track autos (and by extension, their operators) automatically. Daily movements of tens of thousands of ordinary citizens are recorded electronically and logged into computer data storage banks where they are kept for months if not years.
  • New portable facial-analysis lie detectors – some units are based on thermal imaging technology – are being developed for wider use as in a national checkpoint system.
  • Feds are pushing so-called" smart meters" to replace traditional electric meters to monitor, analyze, and yes, control how families use power. Ideal for electricity rationing scenarios and monitoring power usage levels that exceed some bureaucrat's notion of how much we should be allowed to use. You may soon need government permission to do your laundry or adjust your thermostat.
  • A new suitcase-sized cell phone crashing device is being perfected for distribution to local law enforcement – the system can shut down protestors' phones and cell cameras. It's a total end-run around recent court decisions affirming your First Amendment right to video law-enforcement activities in public places.
  • Local police departments are now getting the Mobile Utility Surveillance Tower (MUST) – an armored surveillance command post designed to monitor, intimidate, and help subdue hostile urban crowds.
Homeland Security Rolling Out Still More
Freedom-Threatening Technologies and Initiatives
Notably, DHS is deploying still more citizen tracking programs nationwide, including:
  • Grants to local governments for" FBI Mobile," a portable biometric data collection system first deployed by the military to create IDs for Iraq's urban-war-zone residents.
  • Covert naked-body scanners for checking out the general public on U.S. streets, a" product" being developed by Rapiscan Systems.
  • A fleet of roving backscatter scanning vans for expansion to all forms of ground travel.
  • Military-developed, next-generation Taser systems capable of stunning and incapacitating large numbers of protesters.
  • Active Denial System (ADS)" Pain Ray" for use here at home.
  • Shockwave Area Denial System, which can Taser citizens within 100-meter ranges.
  • Laser Blinding Dazzler system, which causes temporary blindness in protestors.
  • Mass-deployed sedatives to incapacitate crowds, plus the Screaming Microwave system and ear-splitting noise machines for crowd control throughout the U.S.
All of what the Department of Homeland Security has planned for us may be appropriate to a military occupation in a foreign land. But the United States of America is not Iraq or Afghanistan, and there is no insurgency.
So why exactly do government planners feel that they need to arm so many local police departments with advanced population control hardware, sophisticated spying technology and paramilitary weaponry?
Well, we can speculate in a vacuum, or take a look at an astonishing federal planning document," Full Spectrum Operations in the Homeland: A Vision for the Future."
Published by the U.S. Army's University of Foreign Military and Cultural Studies at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, it projects the following specific scenario for using the military to maintain domestic order:
  • Tea Party" extremists" seize control of a South Carolina town, and the Army is sent to crush the" rebellion."
  • Under the Army's Operating Concept 2016-2028, the military units will be expected to" execute without pause and as professionally as if it were overseas."
Not only was this document created at taxpayer expense, there is no disclaimer attached to it. And no one has been reprimanded for spawning it.
Crazy and unbelievable as all this may seem, this is nothing in comparison to the details I release later on in this confidential communication.
But first I need to tell you how I discovered all this.
Here's the Backstory on How and Why I Created
This Urgent Confidential Briefing for You...
I have been working for almost two years on probably the most important story ever revealed in my 24 years of publishing private intelligence advisories for discerning readers of my Independent Living newsletter.
The War on Freedom: 78 Insidious Government Plans to Deprive You of Your Liberty
It's the ALL-NEW blockbuster manual called The War on Freedom: 78 Insidious Government Plans to Deprive You of Your Liberty.
When I started it I knew things were bad. But when I burrowed further into the research, things started getting scary.
In fact, what I found is an unprecedented federal law-enforcement dragnet that was apparently intended to be top secret, but which a number of local police agencies posted on their public websites – oops! When I tried to delve further by seeking official comment from the FBI, I was informed that I was" not supposed to know about" these documents!
So let me say this again: I want each freedom-oriented family to have one copy of my must read manual, The War on Freedom. You must learn about the new powers and programs the feds are quietly implementing in the dead of night. It goes well beyond any Orwellian nightmare, futuristic sci-fi novel, or doomsday conspiracy theory. It's worse by far than anything you've ever heard about, read about, or heard anyone postulate about.
Passing this information down into your family for safekeeping is crucial. I want every freedom-respecting U.S. household to have a copy. But no more than one copy per qualified family.
Because if too many people learn what's in my War on Freedom manual and use it, the defensive tactics it reveals will become public knowledge. So please do not count on getting this communication from me again.
Just please read to the end of this letter to get all of the information you need to make your own mind up. Fair enough?
Okay, I'm glad you're still with me, because I really need to ask you to consider these shocking revelations in my War on Freedom manual – information that my research staff and I ferreted out and that you will NOT find anywhere else.
  • You and I "are now living in an age of government secrecy run amok." So says former FBI undercover agent Mike German regarding a quasi-secret domestic surveillance law. The government made a stunning 76.8 million classification decisions in 2010, according to official statistics cited by Agent German.
  • Two U.S. Senators tried to find out how many private citizens' rights were being violated. They were told to effectively "take a hike."
  • Language snuck into the 2011 National Defense Authorization Act says you can be locked up indefinitely without a trial if the government deems you an enemy, or just a suspected enemy.
  • Only a committed conspiracy theorist could possibly fear the innocuous-sounding Department of Commerce, right? The fact is PC magazine reports that Commerce is now coordinating federal efforts to create an Internet ID for Americans, a key step in allowing the federal government to essentially license and control Internet use for private citizens and businesses – and track every move on the Internet.
  • An FBI attorney openly complained to Congress that web-based e-mail, social networking and peer-to-peer services are frustrating government eavesdropping efforts. Wired magazine says the FBI has built "a sophisticated point-and-click surveillance system that performs instant wiretaps on almost any communications device."
US Customs Pursues New Mission –
Initiate Fishing Expedition of Your Laptop
  • Suppose you take an overseas business trip to Germany, for example, or a vacation in Mexico. And you take along your laptop computer. No problem. Until you return to" friendly" U.S. soil and discover that the U.S. government has quietly rewritten customs rules to permit inspection of the contents of your laptop.
  • Buy two guns at a time (or even several days apart) in California, Texas, Arizona, or New Mexico and by law, your purchases must be reported straight to the Department of Justice, whose head, Atty. General Eric Holder, famously and publicly proclaimed, "it is wrong to carry a gun."
  • It used to be that police could not search your car unless they had one of three things: your permission, a warrant, or probable cause. Well, forget that. Cops now bring out canine units to sniff your vehicle; if they say the dog reacted positive for drugs, your protection against unreasonable search goes out the window. Scientific American reports that 90-95 percent of U.S. currency carries traces of cocaine, so your rights pretty much evaporate the second the dog shows up.
  • AT&T, Sprint, Verizon, and T-Mobile all confirm that they are" cooperating" with law enforcement tracking of their own customers.
  • Refuse a government-ordered medical exam, go to jail. The laws to make this happen are already in place, and can be triggered at any time by government edict. Laws granting medical, religious, or philosophical exemptions would be vacated.
  • I'm as tough as the next guy when it comes to cracking down on criminals, but I've also seen how expansion of government power often begins by taking away the rights of a small population before eventually being applied to all of us. It happened with fingerprinting – originally required only of convicts, now required to get a driver's license in several states. The Enhanced DNA Collection Act is now law in 24 states, requiring felons to submit bodily tissues or fluids for the purpose of DNA collection. Given the historical precedent, it's likely just a matter of time until this mandate is extended to all arrests, including petty misdemeanors.
Government Whistle Blower
Prosecuted for Telling the Truth
  • The strange case of National Security Agency executive Thomas A. Drake – prosecuted by the U.S. government under the Espionage Act for telling the truth. His" crime"? Blowing the whistle on how the NSA tramples on Americans' privacy while it fritters away hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars.
  • Here's another federal entity you've likely never heard of – the White House Rural Council. It's typical of the central government's use of innocent-sounding names for powerful, freedom-destroying agencies. Created by Executive Order 13575, the council appears to be a vehicle for implementing the UN's" social justice" scheme, Agenda 21. It's a naked power grab to consolidate the future of food, fiber, and energy – and the people and enterprises that produce them.
  • One thing I grew up wanting to believe is that the horrors of Nazi Germany will never be repeated. So it gave me chills to read this account in a scholarly report:
    " There were relatively few secret police, and most were just processing the information coming in... It wasn't the secret police who were doing the wide-scale surveillance and hiding on every street corner. It was ordinary German people who were informing on their neighbors..."
    This is precisely the kind of environment DHS's" See Something, Say Something" campaign has the potential to turn into. DHS guidelines for this program are dangerously and absurdly vague. Anyone could be labeled a potential terrorist. I urgently recommend that you heed this entry in my War on Freedom.
  • Earlier I mentioned two powerful federal agencies most people have never heard of. The IRS, however, is universally known and widely loathed. What you may not have known is that the IRS added 16,000 new agents. Result: the targeting of small business, and a nearly 50% boost in tax liens. Read my War on Freedom to learn about IRS plans to make you "kiss your deductions and tax credits goodbye."
  • In all candor, I have an admission to make here. I haven't read the pages after pages of fine print in my cell phone's service agreement or privacy statement. But I'm positive of one thing. At no time did I give the National Security Agency permission to access my phone or my call records. Turns out, it doesn't matter; the NSA asserts that they have the authority to track your cell phone, and they've been doing so for a decade or more. I trust you are beginning to see why reading a copy of my War on Freedom is absolutely essential to safeguarding your privacy!
Inventor Pleads," Don't Use My
GPS For Warrantless Spying."
  • "Don't use my invention for warrantless spying." That's essentially what the lead inventor of the GPS said in pleading with the administration and the Supreme Court not to allow hidden tracking devices to be placed on vehicles without a court order. War on Freedom tells how this case turned out, and warns that you need to expect the government to keep pushing the envelope on technology and privacy.
  • Checking out a book from a public library... paying your local taxes or a parking ticket in person... taking your trash to a municipal transfer station. These are just a few ways average citizens interact with government. Soon, any of these locations and more may be used to capture your biometric data using facial recognition, iris scanning, and who knows what else under the Next Generation Identification system now being implemented by the FBI. Make no mistake – this is a major technology effort involving IBM, Lockheed Martin, and Northrop Grumman
  • Who's the child abuser here? You decide. A Detroit mother had second thoughts about giving psychiatric drugs to her daughter. The doctor turned the mom in to Child Protective Services (CPS), who came to take the girl, 13, away. CPS called for police back-up, and cops called the SWAT team when this gun-toting mama revealed her resolve to protect her child. A tense 12-hour standoff ensued. A rather ironic way to protect a young girl from psychological trauma, if you ask me. The bigger story: the lengths to which government will now go to forcibly drug kids.
  • Children younger than 18 can't get their ears pierced without mom or dad's okay. But California officials have decided that if 12-year-olds want to become sexually active and receive government-administered STD vaccines, it's officially a state secret – no parental consent.
  • Government intrusion into our private lives truly knows no limits. Washington is now developing requirements to mandate that farmers register their tractors and combines as Commercial Motor Vehicles, then qualify for and obtain commercial driver's licenses to operate them, even on their own land. If you thought food prices were high now, wait until the U.S. government becomes the de facto operator of American farms.
  • Is your favorite news site federal government-approved? Former President Bill Clinton is beating the drums for the creation of a federal" Ministry of Truth" to monitor liberty-oriented websites and force them to publish government propaganda.

  • In private industry, anyone who tried to do something 50,000 times and succeeded zero times would surely be fired. But the TSA's so-called Behavioral Detection Program goes on despite having interrogated over 50,000 passengers and identifying zero terrorists.
  • Already widely mistrusted by the citizens who pay her hefty government salary, DHS Sec. Janet Napolitano is at it again. She's telling us about all the wonderful improvements she's planning in airport screening: "I think one of the first things you will see over time is the ability to keep your shoes on." What" Big Sis" isn't saying is that this" improvement" will be achieved by turning up the power on backscatter x-ray machines and even adding MRI technology to TSA checkpoints.
  • Funny thing about the government's proposed" Trusted Traveler Program," purported to be able to help frequent flyers sail through security: anyone signing up for the program will not be trusted. Instead they'll be subjected to extensive biometric scanning, background checks, submission of extensive personal information, and more.
  • "Works by indiscriminately intercepting very large quantities of communications and then siphoning out what is valuable using artificial intelligence aids to find key words." So said the London Telegraph of a system used by the U.S. National Security Agency to suck up communications "like a mammoth vacuum cleaner."
  • Do you think we'll ever see the day when the FBI can go directly to your cell phone company or internet service provider and obtain your private data records and communications without your knowledge and consent, or even a court order? I'm sorry to tell you, that day is already here thanks to the little-known Section 215 of the Patriot Act. You must read my War on Freedom manual and get the facts on this and other government programs that shred your constitutional rights.
  • Get set for 24-hour-a-day rationing and control of your individual use of electricity. If you use" too much" power, expect a brownout, blackout, or singling out of your home or neighborhood as your punishment for being a greedy, selfish power hog. Example: setting your air conditioning thermostat below 78 degrees in summer. The nationwide conversion to" smart meters" coupled with a regulatory blockade that has effectively stopped construction of new power plants means you'll no longer be allowed to use as much power as you're willing to pay for.
  • Social media is turning into one massive spy network. I'm not just talking about how some social media users foolishly post way too much personal data online, exposing themselves to schemers and cyber-crooks of all kinds. Now iPhoto and Facebook are targeting their own users' photos with facial recognition software. War on Freedom reveals how this "advance" may be used against you.
TSA Stresses You Out, Then Interrogates
You for Showing Signs of Stress
  • Don't blink. No really, don't blink. A simple wayward eye movement could turn you into a terror suspect. I'm not making this up. Janet Napolitano's DHS is fast developing technology that uses remote sensors to record physiological values such as heart rate and eye movement. From these and other indicators, software assesses" your intent to cause harm." Quite literally, you could be detained and interrogated for not blinking your eyes according to DHS norms.
  • I'd have trouble believing this one, if not for documentation I've personally examined. America's street lights are being" upgraded" to models outfitted with loudspeakers and hidden microphones by guess who – the Dept. of Homeland Security. These fixtures will broadcast" official announcements" as well as record conversations for government analysis. This is one sick, twisted, and bizarre program, and you and I paid for it. They're calling it – "Intellistreet systems."
  • If you rely on your cell phone in order to be able to call for help in an emergency (and who doesn't), be aware government agencies are now obtaining devices that will not only eavesdrop on your calls, but can effectively shut down all cellphones within range at the push of a button. While I'd like to think that I can trust my hometown police officers in most situations, the potential for abuse here is large.
  • Elevated, fortified guard towers belong in prisons, not America's cities and neighborhoods. However Congress is now being asked to fund a monstrosity called the Mobile Utility Surveillance Tower (MUST), an elevated high-tech guard tower to be used by law enforcement in case of" civil unrest."
Children Groomed from a Tender Age
to Accept Government Monitoring
  • Public school children in one U.S. city are now being video recorded as they eat lunch. Each child is uniquely identifiable via a barcode on their tray. Those who don't eat enough of their government-supplied meal have their file tagged for further action. As I've previously reported, government meals are now mandatory in some public schools, where cafeteria monitors seize brown-bag lunches sent from home and force children to eat government rations or go hungry.
  • "One nation, one map." This is the motto of the most extensive government mapping project ever conceived, pulling information from a wide range of databases and tying it together with pinpoint accuracy to any point on the map of the U.S.A. and its coastal waters. The agency running this mega-mapping project is headed by 18 generals and admirals.
  • The War on Freedom: 78 Insidious Government Plans to Deprive You of Your Liberty
  • My readers tend to be much better informed than the typical American. But I'll bet you've never heard of Executive Order 10998, allowing the government to take over all food resources and farms. It's one of 15 Executive Orders that will make your skin crawl, and listed in my War on Freedom. Frankly, as scary as they may be, they can also serve as a checklist of potential national emergencies and intrusive government actions for which you and I must prepare.
  • Official government sources are trying to sell you on the idea that FEMA internment camps are intended for use in Hurricane Katrina-type events. However I strongly suspect that the recent statement of liberty-oriented Congressman Ron Paul is much closer to the truth:" With the phony debt-based economy getting worse and worse by the day, the possibility of civil unrest is becoming a greater threat to the establishment."
  • Is the government's use of faith-based initiatives just a thinly veiled attempt to infiltrate your church and identify politically incorrect" extremists"? Read the comment I found from a NORTHCOM intel officer and draw your own conclusions.
  • Karl Marx used the term" opiate of the masses" metaphysically. But a weapon under development by the Pentagon is literally opium-like – a sleep-inducing chemical that can be deployed via artillery shell against a 2.5 acre gathering of human beings. If this weapon, too, is deemed to too politically incorrect to be deployed against enemy forces, Americans will be the only possible targets of this formidable biological weapon.
While these trends are ominous, the good news is that we are not in a true police state yet. Which is all the more reason I am contacting you so urgently now.
Because the information I want to discretely share with you right now is important enough to risk the wrath of the political class.
You see, official federal law enforcement documents indicate a high level of paranoia across a broad spectrum of agencies. And to put it mildly, they have many perceived enemies. I want to prepare as many liberty minded Americans as I can for what appears to be coming – because I do fundamentally believe there is greater safety in numbers.
And that growing awareness is our brightest hope. Remember, when creepy government power grabs such as" Total Information Awareness" have come to light, they have often been defeated.
It Doesn't Take a Conspiracy Theorist
to Get to the Bottom of This One...
Tellingly, my research for the War on Freedom mega manual shows just how hard the feds are trying to conceal the full extent of the population control infrastructure they are building. And that's our best break yet. It tells me that hope is still alive.
It's as simple as this: Advance knowledge is power. And I totally get that you are probably a law-and-order, pro-law enforcement kind of person.
Someone who respects the rule of law yet has a live-and-let-live attitude. Which is why you are exactly the kind of person who wants, needs and deserves this information.
You see, most law abiding Americans' first instinct (like mine) is to cooperate with law enforcement. That's certainly my basic inclination.
Yet federal bureaucrats have a new weapon they are using with deadly effectiveness against law abiding people. It's called Title 18, Section 1001 of the United States code. Basically, if a regulator or law enforcement agency talks with you on a" casual basis," you could easily make unguarded comments that open you up to prosecution for lying.
Worse, federal law enforcement agencies have a specific policy to prevent interviews from being recorded, a recent Wall Street Journal story showed. In short, people who talk with law enforcement have no way of proving whether or not they lied – or were lied to – during an interview, save for the notes taken during the interview.
People are going to prison for petty infractions under this statute – even though they are not prosecuted for the petty crimes themselves.
Civil libertarians on the left and the right are up in arms about growing abuses of power under 1001, as it is called.
Innocent people who run afoul of environmental regulations are taking the biggest hit. And 1001 apparently applies if you supposedly lie to any local official either, if they are acting on the basis of enforcing any federal decree or law.
Let me just say that I don't give a tinker's dam about protecting crooks. And my War on Freedom manual is absolutely not intended to help shady operators or scofflaws.
Unfortunately, the government is not gearing up to stop what you and I would regard as criminals. Far from it.
The people who don't have to worry are politically connected crooks – especially crony capitalists, banksters and loot-the-private-sector lawyers.
In fact, it is law-and-order Americans who are at greatest risk if these federal plans reach completion. Especially Americans who believe and act in defense of their legitimate constitutional rights.
If you know anyone like that, then you got this bulletin just in time. Because Uncle Sam is setting up a dizzying array of snares to hound and rip off law-abiding people.
I realize that this is a bit much to digest. But unfortunately none of this is a bureaucratic fluke or rogue agency situation.
Look, I totally 'get' that liberal political forces with an openly socialist agenda want to remake our nation in their image. And that globalists in New York, Washington, Europe, and the UN want to obviate our constitutional rights and make us servants of their utopian global village.
But the freedom-destroying technologies now being deployed in our cities and neighborhoods are much more easily explained. You see, there's a very powerful driving financial force behind all this rising thuggish government.
...All You Have to Do Is Follow the Money!
The corrupt interests that run the U.S. government sit atop an immense enterprise. Trillions of dollars are riding on a continuation of their way of life. And yet the federal government is by all accounts broke, surviving only by creating vast sums of fiat cash and pawning it off on Chinese investors whose patience with US insolvency is wearing thin.
So the choice facing these financially cornered federal employees and their crony capitalist allies in the private sector is simple. Either agree to reduce their power, prestige and bloated resources, or intimidate the public into silence and submission forever.
Do you have any doubt whatsoever as to where the political class stand on this?
I believe this dynamic explains at least some of the official paranoia and loathing of freedom-oriented Americans seen in official federal documents.
And why they are so motivated to rein in all their critics. And also why the national chain of intelligence collection fusion centers are set up to identify and report on people they think may resist the idea of becoming permanent serfs of the federal government.
Whether they are" law abiding" or not.
There are a shockingly large number of official government planning documents which telegraph this hostility:
A newly circulated Department of Homeland Security confidential study entitled Hot Spots of Terrorism and Other Crimes in the United States 1970-2008 characterizes Americans espousing traditionally patriotic values as potential terrorists.
It's all in the DHS report on pages 11-12, where law-abiding Americans exhibiting any of these characteristics are purported to be potential extremists and right-wing terrorists:
  • Americans who" are fiercely nationalistic, as opposed to universal and international in orientation"
  • Americans considering themselves" anti-global"
  • Americans who are" suspicious of centralized federal authority"
  • Americans who are" reverent of individual liberty (especially their right to own guns and be free of taxes)"
  • Americans exhibiting a belief in "conspiracy theories that involve grave threat to national sovereignty and/or personal liberty and a belief that one's personal and/or national way of life is under attack"
As much as I wish this were simply a case of isolated bureaucratic stupidity, it is not.
Now you may think that speaking out is more dangerous than staying silent as your best defense. But that is simply not true, and it is the most important reason you need to get my War on Freedom manual right away.
Now Let's Talk About My Specialty – Taking Personal
Action to Protect Our Individual Liberties
Look, enough about the problem. Let me tell you about my solution.
My researchers and I have created the only true blueprint of what federal bureaucrats have in mind for us.
The War on Freedom: 78 Insidious Government Plans to Deprive You of Your Liberty
My War on Freedom manual exists nowhere else. That's because no mainstream publisher would touch such a" tell-it-all" warning the way I do.
This mega-manual spells out 78 new freedom-stealing trends and initiatives that are currently under development.
Your family needs this document. Because without it, you can't see what is coming. And you need to. The manual protects you in two fundamental ways –
First and foremost, it cues you in to the dizzying list of freedom-destroying, behavior-tracking technologies and programs being deployed right now all over the country. With knowledge of these systems, you'll have a much better chance of avoiding them.
It's pretty rare that crony capitalists go on national television to admit their complicity with things like the FBI's campaign for a cashless, totally trackable society. You need my War on Freedom manual to alert you to the seemingly innocent activities that can land your name, address, image, travel habits, and much more in a federal law enforcement database or watch list.
If you think back to one of the first widespread uses of police technology, the radar gun, my War on Freedom manual is like a radar detector. It sounds the alarm about hidden government surveillance traps so you can" slow down" in time to avoid detection.
The second way War on Freedom proves invaluable is that where possible, I give you specific action steps to take to lawfully evade tracking of your personal life. You'll learn what to say and do, and what not to say and do, whenever you're in public, online, or dealing with a public employee (police officer, IRS agent, or librarian for that matter).
The overall goal is to reduce your visibility or simply blend into the background, while not exposing your personal data, beliefs, and habits to the various mechanisms that capture, store, and analyze this information.
Basically having your own copy of the War on Freedom is the difference between being an eagle-eyed, self-reliant individual or being a sitting duck for government surveillance.
