H.R.1955 Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007
- Freedom2Fascism : Welcome to Fascism American style...slipped right in the back door, via 911....that's all folks!
- Anonymous : This is just a waste. There is no possible way to prevent terrorism on our soil no matter what precautions we take. If you really want to stop home grown terrorism than you have to leave the civil liberties of the people intact, and leave it to the people to guard against it. Remember people the D.C. snipers appeared to be uncatchable by the authorites. The only reason why they were caught was because the authorities gave the PEOPLE information on what they were looking for, and it was a repairman that spotted the vehicel that the snipers were using to get around in. The authorities only reacted on the information and arrested them. We the people have to be the ones to prevent terrorism not the government. By allowing them to pass this it only opens the door to our civil liberties to be infringed. It will start off as a study then turn into legislation that bases it off of what they find. National wire taps, e-mail screening that ques to certian phrases, and ( yes this is going to sound like a back woods hillbilly ) stricter backround checks on firearm purchases ( maybe restrictions on what calibers, lengths, and types). This bill is absolutely a waste of our time and money to pass.

S.1959 Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007
- imjo0667 : My comment about this is the same as my comment about HOMEGROWN TERRORISM. "the use, planned use, by a group or individual to promote the group or individual's political beliefs". Smells rotten.
- imjo0667 : "(3) HOMEGROWN TERRORISM- The term `homegrown terrorism' means the use, planned use, or threatened use, of force or violence by a group or individual born, raised, or based and operating primarily within the United States or any possession of the United States to intimidate or coerce the United States government, the civilian population of the United States, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives."
Isn't this the same thing as what is being practiced in DC by our government officials and their parties? How would the US Government disqualify themselves from this statement?
