Brings a tear to my eye

Sgt. Adam Page has served in the U.S. Army for several years, most recently in Afghanistan. Today, the soldier surprised his five year old daughter, Bailey, during reading time in her kindergarten class.

Sgt. Page has served in the Army seven years, and had just been redeployed to Utah. It will be the first time he has lived with his family since Bailey was born.

Ron Paul has introduced legislation that would repeal portions of the National Defense Authorization Act. Specifically, the Congressman from Texas is referring to section 1021 of the NDAA, which he says is so vague that it leaves the door open for the detention of American citizens without trial. 

Got your tinfoil hats on? Good. A couple of excerpts from articles I've read recently about the National Defense Authorization Act. What does it mean and what is possibly to come? First from NaturalNews:

Even while committing an act of pure treason in signing the bill, the unindicted criminal President Obama issued a signing statement that reads, in part, "Moving forward, my administration will interpret and implement the provisions described below in a manner that best preserves the flexibility on which our safety depends and upholds the values on which this country was founded..."

Anyone who reads between the lines here realizes the "the flexibility on which our safety depends" means they can interpret the law in any way they want if there is a sufficient amount of fear being created through false flag terror attacks. Astute readers will also notice that Obama's signing statementhas no legal binding whatsoever and only refers to Obama'smomentary intentions on how he "wishes" to interpret the law. It does not place any limits whatsoever on how a future President might use the law as written.

Click through the links to read all of it. Makes sense though. If he was actually against using the provisions in the act, he would have vetoed it like he said he was. Smoke and mirrors. Here's one more:

As the story says, this seems "quite unusual" to me. Something shady is going on.

Police are questioning the crew of the MS Thor Liberty after what were described as 69 Patriot anti-missile missiles were found aboard.

Interior Minister Paivi Rasanen said the missiles were marked "fireworks".

The MS Thor Liberty had docked in the Finnish port of Kotka after leaving Germany last week.

Dock workers became suspicious after finding explosives poorly stored on open pallets, and the missiles were then found in containers marked "fireworks".

The managing director of the ship's owner, Thorco Shipping, expressed surprise. Thomas Mikkelsen told AFP news agency from Denmark that he was unaware of the matter.

Another company official, speaking on condition of anonymity, confirmed the ship had been detained in Finland and said the missiles could have been loaded on to the vessel by mistake, AFP adds.

Police did not confirm Finnish media reports that the ship had also been scheduled to stop in South Korea, Reuters news agency reports.

'Quite unusual'

The MS Thor Liberty left port in Emden, northern Germany, on 13 December and docked two days later in Kotka, southern Finland, to pick up a cargo of anchor chains, said Finnish Customs spokesman Petri Lounatmaa.

It was bound for the Chinese port of Shanghai but there was no indication for whom the military cargo was destined.

I posted recently posted about legislation that would allow the U.S. military to detain citizens indefinately without charge or trial (Posse Comitatus, anyone?). Here is a vid from Senator Rand Paul that describes those who could be considered a domestic terrorist under existing laws. Pretty much our entire state qualifies by this definition. Excerpted from SHTFPlan:

It’s not just the hundreds of thousands of members in the alternative media community that are pointing out the dangers to liberty posed by government’s anti-terror legislation. Senator Rand Paul (R-KY), like his father Dr. Ron Paul (R-TX), puts the platitudes and pointless bickering aside to tackle the real issues – the underlying fundamental issues that threaten our very way of life.

In this speech calling for the removal of the detainee provisions in the National Defense Authorization Act, Senator Paul highlights, in surprising detail, activities that are now considered by Homeland security and law enforcement to be suspicious and potentially terroristic in nature:

I don't know about you, but this does not sound like a good idea. The first things that springs to mind is:

They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

Are you ready for your front yard to become part of the battlefield?

While nearly all Americans head to family and friends to celebrate Thanksgiving, the Senate is  gearing up for a vote on Monday or Tuesday that goes to the very heart of who we are as Americans. The Senate will be voting on a bill that will direct American military resources not at an enemy shooting at our military in a war zone, but at American citizens and other civilians far from any battlefield — even people in the United States itself.

Senators need to hear from you, on whether you think your front yard is part of a “battlefield” and if any president can send the military anywhere in the world to imprison civilians without charge or trial.

Love it.
