"This past week, sensitive
documents from the Missouri Information Analysis Center were leaked to the public. The M.I.A.C. report designated “UNCLASSIFIED//LAW ENFORCEMENT
SENSITIVE”, seeks to put supporters of Dr. Ron Paul, those tired of the endless
banker bailouts, and just about anyone else who dare question the Federal
government on par with Neo-Nazis and abortion clinic bombers.1
It disturbs me greatly to
bear witness as our Federal government continues to expand its program of
correlating dissent with domestic terrorism. Fellow readers, this despicable
tactic is precisely why many of our Founding Fathers sought to engross
humanity’s inherent liberties into the Constitution via The Bill of Rights.
Among these rights derived solely from nature, is the right to free speech;
even speech deemed unpopular or critical of one’s government.

Truth
be told, the tactic of linking those criticizing the central authority as
outright enemies of the state, whether it be king or government is as old as
humanity itself. This is how students of the enlightenment, ergo Thomas Jefferson,
James Madison, et al knew the absolute necessity of prohibiting government
regulation of speech. The Founding generation witnessed first hand “Royal
Governors” and legislatures executing and imprisoning their fellow colonists
for speaking out against the crown.2 These unjust decrees backed by
the weight of the sword, were necessary in the eyes of the loyalist
governments. They feared dissent would gradually give rise to critical
thinking, which in turn would demand answers and accountability, and thus
dissent was seen as a direct threat to their ever corrupting grip on power.
Even members of the
founding generation were tempted by the corrupting influence of power. Fearing
a threat to his own power and pressured by the Hamiltonian faction, President Adams
signed into law a series of legislation that went on to become known as “The
Alien and Sedition Acts” . Thankfully, the passion for politics by Americans
from all walks of life, denounced the acts so roundly, along with the
repudiation of the Virginia and Kentucky resolutions, that it helped propel
Thomas Jefferson into the Presidency over incumbent John Adams. President
Jefferson immediately pardoned all those found guilty of the Acts, which he let
expire upon his election.3
At the time it was an uniquely
American philosophy that power must challenge power, or as James Madison wrote:
“Ambition must be made to counteract ambition… It may be
a reflection on human nature, that such devices should be necessary to control
the abuses of government”
James Madison

FEMA Anti-Terror Training - Founding Fathers were Terrorists
- July 17th, 2001
Consequently, the
eradication of this ideal is repeatedly articulated by the Federal government
in its most recent attempt to cast dissent as the enemy to its brand of Neo
Patriotism. For this purpose sheds sunshine as to why the central authority and
its agents seek to establish an interrelationship by equating the Founding
Fathers to terrorists. Regrettably, the video to the right establishes that the
central authority has waged their war of reeducation at least since July of
2001 prior to the initial hyper call to nationalism/Neo patriotism following
the September 11th attacks.
However, this is just
another example of an ever increasing amount of pejorative rhetoric towards the
central authority’s own compact, the U.S. Constitution. The M.I.A.C. report desires to reinforce the correlation made both in
the F.E.M.A training video above and the Phoenix F.B.I. Joint Terrorism Task
Force/Maricopa County Sheriff’s Department’s brochure4 of those who
reference and defend the Constitution as terrorists. Moreover it attempts to
handcuff supporters of Representative Ron Paul (R-TX) to the likes of Eric
Rudolph, the 1996 Olympic park bomber. As a result, if those of us who merely
supported Representative Ron Paul during the campaign are dangerous homegrown
radicals according to M.I.A.C., then
how does one think they view Dr. Paul, who publicly declared himself to be “The
Champion of the Constitution”?5
During the course of the
previous administration, both officials and their old-media shills demonized
individuals who dared speak out against the Bush Doctrine as unPatriotic,
unAmerican, and/or traitors. Now we are told by socialist scribes6 that dissenting against the “economic terrorism” id est the central bank manipulated credit crisis, is also
unpatriotic. If we are no longer allowed to question or criticize the
government’s domestic or foreign policies without being painted as homegrown
radicals, is there any semblance left at all of our republic? Should I instead
just pledge blind allegiance to President Obama and be content with my “right”
to criticize a group of B-list celebrities or no talent wannabee singers on
“Dancing with the Stars” or “American Idol” respectively?
Therefore, since our
temporary browser cookie indicates that various members of the U.S. Senate are
regular readers of “The Smoking Argus Daily”, I respectfully request an answer
one way or the other as to whether or not my political philosophy and
associations are terrorist in nature.
According to the M.I.A.C. report, you just might be a terrorist if…
- You display or use the “Gadsden
Rattlesnake” Flag/Symbol.
- You have watched the
“Anti-Federal Reserve System” - Zeitgeist Movie.
- You support a repeal of the
16th Amendment - the Income Tax.
- You supported the candidacy
of Representative Ron Paul (R-TX).
- You are a member of The
Committees of Safety.
- You oppose mandatory
citizen service for those aged 18 to 24 per Rahm Emanuel’s proposal.
- You oppose the Security and
Prosperity Partnership being out of the jurisdiction of Congressional
oversight.
- You support the abolition
of the FEDERAL RESERVE private central bank and favor a return to
Constitutional money.
- You oppose any further
restrictions on the inherent right to bear arms.
- You have watched Aaron
Russo’s “America: Freedom to Fascism”
- You oppose any additional
bailout bills for failing banks and/or private companies.
Dear members of the
Senate:
Please think of the
checklist above as my 21st century “petition for Redress of Grievances”. Tis a
fact of candid reality that when a government seeks to cast all dissent as
terrorism, we are most certainly flirting upon the precipice of tyranny."
Respectfully,
Allison Bricker
