The republicans calling for justice? HA! That's pretty funny considering how often they break federal laws themselves to push their ideas.
Where's the justice for the IRS scandal?
Where's the justice for Project PRISM, a project still continuing to watch the entire world, gathering data illegally?
or
The whole economic sh*t heap we've been in since the bush administration?
When do the american people get justice for those? Since when did "land of the free" become "land of the privileged"? Why should we care what these drug runners are doing right this second, when thousands of american families are in dire straights and barely able to afford even medicine or food?
(sorry to rant, but...)
In just the past year, we've heard of the government taking the following from us:
-Security: By continuing unneeded wars, they're causing countless possible counterattacks, only one of which needs to deal serious enough damage to leave us open for ground war, the result of which, the people would suffer.
-Privacy: Project PRISM has completely destroyed any hope of real privacy, everything you type, text, say, and even do, are all monitored and recorded by this program all on the basis of "national security". All major forms of modern communication (including but not limited to: cell phones, skype, google, facebook, youtube, probably even this) are compromised by this program. They've been spying on our allies, people are delusional to think that they're excluding us just because we're americans.
-Liberty: I say this because most of us (especially where I live) no longer have the freedom to live life the way we wish to. Because of the horrible economy, many are left jobless and families are losing their houses of 10 or more years. This is the exact opposite of what should be happening right now. In a sense, we've become slaves to a situation that was forced on us by our corrupt government, all because of their greed and incompetence.
-Arms (guns): The government has narrowed down the choice of firearms that americans can own, down to something that wouldn't count for sh*t if it absolutely needed to. In short, we can only purchase semi-automatics, and we're only allowed a certain ammo count per clip of these weapons, meaning if some country were to invade, we'd be screwed so bad it's not even funny. After all of the stuff we've heard already, one has to wonder if the government was simply using excuses over time, to take away our ability to fight, should they decide to put their own soldiers in the streets to police us all. At this point, I wouldn't put it past them.
Our whole government needs to be replaced, and if anyone thinks a simple vote will do it, quite frankly you're delusional, they're not going to give up their power by choice, trust me.
