WOW,Now Obama is shooting people with rubber bullets outside of the G-20 meeting building in Pittsburgh.Thats what I would call a defensive financial policyLOL
Usually shooting at your own people is viewed as one of the hallmarks of socialism.

G-20 Pitts Protests.
The world defiant radical interviewed on BBC world radio'while on the drive home last night' was a local Pittsburgh resident,talking of community of job loss.He said police were using loud sound designed to cause severe ear pain pepper spray bombs rubber bullets and the sort.He seemed like a reasonable,level headed citizen with a desire for a gov. that can act sensibly.But,you never Know.His interview was sandwiched between BBC reports of the usual Tamil Rebel Tiger Sri Lanka internment camp story and Police brutality complaints during dispersing of the "Jungle" immigrant camp in Calais France.I wonder if Obama and his populous just snicker at harming those poor people?Are they right or wrong or just dissident in his eyes?How can Obama and party feel so strongly about their policy directive that their actions result on the same page as jailed political dissidents by the Burmese Gov. on world news?It's a shame.

"A wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government."

If only Jefferson & Co. could have seen what we have today!

TRO, I would agree with you but I must remain silent:
"If that's all you've got...maybe you should seriously consider remaining silent !!! "
In the interest of being accepted, loved, and not put in jail.

"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil was for good men to do nothing"
"First they came for the communists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a communist; Then they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist; Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist; Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew; Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak out for me."

The other day I realized something:
The last time a war was fought for the FREEDOM of WE THE PEOPLE was in the 1700s!!
I don't see any country threatening my freedom or taking my money EXCEPT FOR THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
THINK ABOUT IT!!
