Breaking: Explosion Reported at Boston Marathon's Finish Line

[Peter Lemkin]

It REALLY is FRIGHTENING where/what America has come to be today. Never the 'shining light on the hill' it portrayed itself to be, it was much less of the horror it is today when I was a child....though at that time those who fought WWII were planning for the US to become an Empire encompassing the World and never to 'stand down' from a war-footing. Since WWII we have had nothing but endless wars. Not a one I can see had a moral, strategic, or necessary rationale - other than greed and power for a very few. Things have steadily moved to a police state; universal surveillance; unified propaganda; undoing of the checks and balances in place - flawed as they were; the 'best' 'government' Big Money could buy; covert ops and assassinations up the jazoo; and the most dread march toward neo-fascism [always nascent in America]. Where is the fight back, the push back? Similar, I know is happening in the UK and other western 'democracies' [sic]. Time is really running out and those who can't see it are as blind IMO as those who thought Hitler could be 'tempered' by something. Things are rapidly spinning out of control politically and the manufactured economic crisis has been set in motion to both rob what remains or anyone's assets AND to make any sustained resistance to what is coming more difficult to nearly impossible. :joystick:
