BREAKING ALERT: Patriot Raided by SWAT Under Patriot Act
Walter Reddy, the founder of the modern Committees of Safety, joins Gary Franchi for a special interview to recount the recent SWAT Team raid on his home.
If you and/or your senators and representative are in favor of the P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Act you may want to think twice. Recently, a friend of mine had his home raided by a SWAT team for three hours - operating without a search warrant. Why? Because Walter Reddy is a good patriot and a good American? In a police state, it doesn't matter. You see another man who knows of Walter went to the police station and made wild accusations about him. And even though, the man refused sign to (swear to) his statement to police, the police nonetheless acted on the hearsay and unsubstantiated charges. Oh and of course they confiscated his lawful firearms though he was not then nor is he now charged with any crime.
Let's wake up and grow up! The so-called P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Act is nothing more than a license for a police state to operate with impunity. This dangerous act is as unconstitutional and unAmerican as it can be. Police actions under it routinely violate the First Amendment, Second Amendment, Fourth Amendment and Fifth Amendment of your innocent fellow Americans. Walter is just another man who is trying to right America's severely listing republic. Don't expect to see this article on the nighly news. America, we can do better and we MUST!
Here is an article about Walter; he is deservedly well respected.

The “Rotten Apple” theory states that deviant police officers are those who psychological testing fails to screen out. This concept is favored by police administrators because it offers a quick and easy solution to police deviant behavior. However, there is a growing body of literature that suggests that it is the stressful occupation that is policing that is the fertile soil from which police deviant behavior springs otherwise known as the “Rotten Barrel” theory. This article shall explore police deviant behavior from the perspective that it is the “Rotten Barrel” that leads to police deviant behavior.
What we are now seeing appears to indicate that psychological testing is being used to locate and hire sociopathic deviants rather than to screen them out. Are the people, who ought to be in prisons or mental institutions, now being given guns and badges? Are the prisons or mental institutions now for religious, or freedom loving people? Sociopathic deviants are the first line of enforcement in every dictatorship.
A true patriot should be shedding blood for what he believes in, not going online and bitching about getting raided by jackboots in the middle of the night. Until somebody starts smoking these thugs when they come thru your door, expect the abuse to continue.

I'm sorry but at this juncture that would be flat stupid. The time for that was 20 or 30 years ago. Now it would only be used as an excuse for further Police State incursions and abrogations of Constitutionally protected rights.
Ideas, and communication such as on this forum are actually a powerful antidote to the Police State as it now exists. They may not always hold true, but for the moment it is.
There is still enough of the machinery of liberty left to turn back the rising tide of tyranny. However, it requires simply having enough people willing to stand up and manfully say, "NO!"
Their power is not so complete that they do not fear widespread dissent and disagreement. That is why they are working to suppress it.
The correct response is to fight back, join groups fighting back, and to make a stand for liberty but at this point armed insurrection lacks popular support and would simply result in a lot of dead bodies followed by a tighter clamp down.
