Seems to me, Bush has his militia in place to deal with subversive terrorists like me, as witnessed at the Rep Nat'l Convention in MN - did you see the videos from uptake? I am no leader - I am not a sheeple, either.
I am pleading for leadership. I'll be there if any appears.

I agree with what you say and i understand. The only thing is that it's a pity and it's not good to see those things happening. As i said in my other post everybody has their eyes on America and everyone has high hopes.
That militia you mentioned is true and there waiting but it exists first for intimidation. Maybe you forgot that the American people has the firearms
power in their hands. I don't know for how long. I don't mean to pry! It's just the pure truth. I've seen the videos and i wasn't surprised. Remember what happened in New York at the last RNC? Not very different.
I am asking you another question? Those police officers, to whom did they pledged "to serve and protect"? Are they aware that they are breaking the law? How high and potent is the level of the indoctrination in this country?
Can it be broken? Do you think that in the case of extreme situations they will wake up? I mean if they will be faced the situation of aiming and firing to peaceful protesters, for example...
I know this is like a never ending story and we all can be sure that these kind of things happened and are happening everywhere, but again, it's a pity.
And if the American people let this happen to them, then America and everything it stands for it's nothing but a myth!
As George Carlin said, or close: "they call it The American Dream because you have to be asleep to reach it". (Excuse me if my quote is not accurate)
And i don't mean to offend anybody!
