if you accept them doing this to someone you don't necessarily approve of and who seemingly has done no wrong, what will you say when they come for you, all in opposition to 'our laws';


The federal government has forcibly seized, shackled, and kept imprisoned an American citizen who has not even been charged with a crime. They have incarcerated the 59-year-old grandmother for over a week and say they will continue to do so for an unquantified period of time into the future.
For several days the government refused to admit it had taken the woman from the St. Louis airport as she was on her way to visit a sick brother.
For 48 hours, authorities refused to allow her to contact her family, and refused to tell anyone, including mainstream news media like the Associated Press, CNN, and Fox News where they were holding her.
Finally, a judge, who perhaps remembered what the United States Constitution requires, partially unsealed the court records, and the government’s official rationale became public: she had been forcibly taken away, shackled, and imprisoned because she was, they said, a “witness.” To a still-unspecified crime.
This violates some of the most fundamental principles on which the United States was founded, and which protect all Americans of every political persuasion, race, religion, and ethnicity.
Our forefathers – and these are the political forefathers of every single American citizen, whether their ancestors are from here or came a few hundred years ago, or whether they were naturalized today – created a nation that was to be based on rule of law and on liberty..........https://israelpalestinenews.org/its-time-to-join-together-to-protect-essential-rights/
