Oath Keepers! We Need You!
If you are in Law Enforcement or the Military, you MUST pay attention to this!
Remember your oath to the Constitution
… and make your decision NOW.
There is a frenzy of activity over this new bill (National Defense Authorization Act) that, if passed by the U.S. Senate, could pave the way for U.S. Citizens to be indefinitely detained without trial.
The following is an excerpt from the Liberty Alert posting on Enola Gay’s blog, Paratus Familia. The article apparently originated at Infowars.com

Liberty Alert!
“I watch in awe as our liberties and rights are eroded one by one! Will we stand by and allow this tyranny? Will we meekly accept the “inevitable”? Would you be willing to trade liberty for “safety”? Would you be defined as a “terrorist”? This is our watch, people. What are we going to allow…..”

Senate Moves To Allow Military To Intern Americans Without Trial
NDAA detention provision would turn America into a “battlefield”

The Senate is set to vote on a bill today that would define the whole of the United States as a “battlefield” and allow the U.S. Military to arrest American citizens in their own back yard without charge or trial.
“The Senate is going to vote on whether Congress will give this president—and every future president — the power to order the military to pick up and imprison without charge or trial civilians anywhere in the world. The power is so broad that even U.S. citizens could be swept up by the military and the military could be used far from any battlefield, even within the United States itself,” writes Chris Anders of the ACLU Washington Legislative Office.
Under the ‘worldwide indefinite detention without charge or trial’ provision of S.1867, the National Defense Authorization Act bill, which is set to be up for a vote on the Senate floor this week, the legislation will “basically say in law for the first time that the homeland is part of the battlefield,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), who supports the bill.
The bill was drafted in secret by Senators Carl Levin (D-Mich.) and John McCain (R-Ariz.), before being passed in a closed-door committee meeting without any kind of hearing. The language appears in sections 1031 and 1032 of the NDAA bill.

UPDATE!!! ACLU blog reports that measures to remove the portion allowing for indefinite detention FAILED.
“The next opportunity to remove the harmful detention provisions from the bill will be when House and Senate conferees meet in conference committee next week.”
