This has become a lawless, gangster government.

Houston – The TSA will help undercover police perform random bag searches and other security activities in a new program on the METRO bus system, marking the maligned federal agency’s latest foray out of airports and into other forms of mass transit…’
‘The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.’

    And to remove all doubt, go take a look at this:
    ‘Obama has established a precedent of not working with legislators from both parties to pass congressional bills, instead resorting to changing laws and policies through executive fiat.  With over 40 czars controlling various functions, he has structured a second tier of unaccountable government officials that operate behind the scenes away from the glare of public scrutiny.  This shadow government undermines Congress, the people’s representatives, and the Cabinet secretaries who undergo a Senate vetting process.  It subverts the foundational principle of government by representation for government by proxy…’

    If he wins in November, will Romney overturn any of this? I’m willing to bet he won’t.
    Somebody much smarter than Obama is pulling the strings here and I believe the RNC is complicit.

        It’s almost as if the RINOs want the ‘Dark Plague’ and the Presstitutes to win KG.

    yet another step in the path to ushering in the USA’s version of Fascism. Obama is lining himself up to be the next Mussolini, except he lacks the flare and dress sense.
    The TSA are heading towards morphing themselves into a modern Brownshirts/ and eventually a Gestapo like organisation, offering thought policing in the name of ‘communal safety’. All it will take is an Engineered onshore attack from one of the minions…

    When I saw the headline, the only question I had was “which government?” :mrgreen:

  6. Flashman says:

    I’ve lived in a fairly repressive Police State. I did not feel safe on account of the existence of the state security apparatus. No one did.

    On the basis of this article, it is evident that the TSA nothing to learn and is following the long-established self-justified heavy control paranoia play book to perfection.

    I fear American citizens are getting face-time exposure to the Old School East European Kafka experience: something I thought I ‘d never see in my lifetime.

    “I fear American citizens are getting face-time exposure to the Old School East European Kafka experience..”
    Yes indeed, Flashy. And should O win in November, it’s going to get much worse, very quickly.
    Under Romney it will simply get worse, but slower.

    Off the topic of the post, but in keeping with the headline, it appears Nancy “sign the bill so we know what’s in it” Pelosi is feeling guilt about the massive money pouring into the Re-elect Zero campaign from the UAW, SEIU, NBPP and Gaza Strip:

    Oh wait, scratch that. She doesn’t like the SCOTUS decision in Citizens United so she only wants to stop those hateful corporations from donating. Quick question, Nance: to which team do Wall Street (and Detroit) corporations donate more?

    Fucking fascist!

    Aparrantly being a pigfamer is also a felony crime now… yet another step on the road to allow radical islam to take over

    So if you get out your rulers and your #2 pencils and start drawing trend-lines, you won’t have to draw very far into the future until your lines intersect at the data point labeled, “Federal Agency Orders Drone Killing of Suspected Felon.”

    In this mythological scenario, the “suspected felon” might be a derelict who had been running a meth lab next to an elementary school, in which case most folks would applaud a drone strike (without the hassle of a jury trial). But in the world that is coming our way, the suspected felon is just as likely to be a pig farmer who is raising “illegal” pigs.

    Yes, it’s true, thanks to a new “Invasive Species Order” in the state of Michigan, numerous pig farmers have become potential felons. And the authorities are wasting no time bringing these outlaws to justice.

    According to a story from NaturalNews, Michigan’s Department of Natural Resources “conducted two armed raids on pig farmers…one in Kalkaska County at Fife Lake and another in Cheboygan County…with the intent of shooting all the farmers’ pigs under a bizarre new ‘Invasive Species Order’ that has suddenly declared traditional livestock to be an invasive species.”

    The Capital Account’s Lyster brought the story to our attention yesterday and, by a bizarre coincidence, your editor discovered shortly thereafter that his niece, Jennifer Fry, had covered the story earlier this week for the Pacific Legal Foundation.

    Ms. Fry remarked:

    Is it lawful to own a pig in Michigan? It depends what the pig looks like.

    The Michigan Department of Natural Resources, a state administrative agency, has decided that certain breeds of swine must be eradicated in order to “stop the spread of feral swine and the disease risk they pose to humans, domestic pigs, and wildlife.” The problem is that, rather than focus on feral swine — the alleged source of the problem — the Department has issued an interpretive ruling so broad that any pig could qualify for destruction, including domestic farm animals.

    Whether a pig is prohibited or not depends on eight physical characteristics, including the coloration of its bristles, coat coloration, underfur coloration, skeletal appearance, ear structure and “other characteristics not currently known to the [Department] that are identified by the scientific community.”

    Rather than clarify the scope of this order, the Department has told individual farmers to bring in pictures of their pigs so the Department can decide, on a case-by-case basis, whether a pig must be destroyed. And any farmer found to possess a prohibited pig is subject to a felony conviction, two years in jail, and $20,000 in fines.

    Mark Baker, an air force veteran and the owner of Bakers Green Acres Farm, filed a lawsuit challenging the Department’s order. Baker raises specific heritage breeds of hogs which he has chosen because they can withstand Michigan’s cold winters and because they are prized for their reddish-meat and high fat content by chefs and other gourmet food consumers. Now, because those breeds exhibit characteristics on the Department’s list, his entire operation is likely illegal under Michigan law; he expects the Department to show up at his farm any moment to destroy his animals and his livelihood.

    Unsurprisingly, the Michigan Pork Producers Association — an organization whose members do not grow heritage pigs — supports the Department, which has allegedly assured the Association that its members’ operations will be exempt. It must be nice for large-scale producers who command enough political clout to simply outlaw their competition. Meanwhile, Mark Baker and other smaller-scale farmers must wait to see where the bureaucratic winds will blow.

    As this episode highlights, administrative agencies constantly try to expand the scope of their jurisdiction to accumulate more and more power. Originally, Michigan’s Department of Natural Resources was limited to regulating hunting and fishing. Now, it points to certain state laws and executive orders as authorizing its “Invasive Species Order” to include hogs. Even though that order claims to exclude domestic hog production from its reach, it does not exclude those pigs, like Baker’s, which exhibit the characteristics on the Department’s list. According to State Senator Darwin Booher, this order threatens to shut down an estimated 2,000 small farms in his state.

    It’s inevitable.
    There has never yet been a government agency which didn’t push “mission creep” as a way of increasing its power. Start off with those that nobody is interested in protecting (and if they do, they’ll be labelled paedophile sympthisers or drug dealer accomplices etc etc) and move out to cover anybody the gummint and the bureaucrats deem “undesirable”.
    The Soviets had this stuff down to a fine art.

    How’s thus for tortured logic. Obama’s lawyers are arguing n New Jersey that the Long Form Birth Certificate he produced is so obviously a forgery it can’t possibly be used as evidence in a case challenging his eligibility!
