1st Amendment cancelled...............from Rico

Sentient Americans have a perfect understanding of the present situation, and are not afraid of notional boogeymen...er, terrorists, but rather are coming around to the thought that the greatest threat and enemy of their Life and Liberty is their own Government.

How many even 'noticed' their latest gift from the Politburo...er, Congress which stripped them of the right to free assembly (and basically the protections of the 1st Amendment)?
- This monstrosity passed the House as H.R. 347 by 388 to 3, and the Senate as S.1794 unanimously.

Blandly named the "Federal Restricted Buildings and Grounds Improvement Act of 2011" (after all, we're 'improving' something, right?) what has actually happened is that Americans have been stripped of their former right to peaceably assemble and request public redress of grievences against government or the elected officials within it.

Staying home and remaining silent is their new and 'improved' public duty.

One step closer to a totalitarian police state.
- Dissent? Protest? Disagree? Then it's the re-education camp and indefinite detention for you!
