Pro-Lifers: The Most Dangerous Domestic Terrorists?

JOIN 347 OTHERS

The Department of Homeland Security has labeled you, a member of the pro-life community, a DANGEROUS DOMESTIC TERRORIST.  Why would our government single out groups like pro-life supporters when they should be focusing on identifying and apprehending the real terrorists — like al-Qaeda — groups that have vowed to destroy America?  This characterization is not only offensive to millions of Americans who hold constitutionally-protected views opposing abortion — but also raises serious concerns about the political agenda of an agency with a mandate to protect America.  This is a dangerous precedent.  It is troubling in its scope.  It is wrong as a matter of public policy and it targets the fundamental free speech rights of citizens of the United States.  Please read the form below carefully and declare your membership with the BeHeard Project by adding your name to our Demand for Retraction to Homeland Security.

Demand for Retraction

To: 
The Department of Homeland Security

As a pro-life citizen of the United States of America, I am gravely concerned by the inflammatory statements within the Department’s newly-released warning entitled:  “Rightwing Extremism:  Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment.”

To label pro-lifers as “rightwing extremists” and “domestic terrorists” is incorrect as a matter of law and wrong as a matter of policy.  This type of unconstitutional language targets peace-loving, pro-American citizens of the United States and their fundamental First Amendment rights.

I respectfully demand an immediate and full retraction.  It’s time to target the REAL terrorists — focus your attention on rooting out those people who are bent on causing harm to our country and REMOVE the pro-life community from this warning.

The Case Against the Income Tax

Could America exist without an income tax? The idea seems radical, yet in truth America did just fine without a federal income tax for the first 126 years of its history. Prior to 1913, the government operated with revenues raised through tariffs, excise taxes, and property taxes, without ever touching a worker's paycheck.

Government equates Constitutionalists with terrorists

Over the weekend, sources sent me a Homeland Security report intended for law enforcement cognizance titled "Rightwing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment."

Comment: So... I guess that means those of us who are in the military and actually take our oath seriously to support and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic must also be terrorists??? That does not make any sense.

Oath of Enlistment
"I, (NAME), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God."
