Ok, does this not concern anyone but me? Srsly? Srsly? Mercinaries work with our local police now? This honestly is a few steps away from a military police.

Well, this way they can beat the shit out of minorities and not get in any trouble for it.

Sounds like a great development for the future of our civil liberties.

It's also fucking awesome. A man can not only make a living as a mercenary, he can do it in the United States. I wonder when vampire hunter will become mainstream...

Hmm. It's the casual mention of the non-police help that is worrying, as if that part isn't news.

I realise that a lot of you see me as some borderline Jay or something.... But I have to say that lately this place has got me feeling a bit claustrophobic.... This country is so crazy to me... It's like people don't even care about this stuff, from domestic spying to Posse Comentatus to 700Billion dollar satallites used for domestic spy operations; From RFID-everything, a congress that works against the people, rampant voter fraud, war for profit, a media which admits to working with the government... I kinda feel like we really are slipping into the 1984 society. And it's all happening so slowly that I feel like no one else is noticing... EXCEPT the wing nuts that even I don't listen to.

I honestly don't trust a lot of the people that are in power... at any level. When they are the only people that know of the inner-workings of what they do, what's to stop them from just telling the little people what they want to hear and then carrying on with their grand schemes? It's one of the reasons I don't put too much trust into the Bible. What was to stop the Romans from adding whatever the hell they wanted to and passing it off as biblical law?
