How Long Before we are Living the Nightmare Portrayed in George Orwell’s Film 1984?

Police have been taking money from people in traffic stops in Middle Tennessee without even charging them with anything. This is being done in the so called war on drugs. Some police agencies it seems are more concerned about making money than stopping the drugs. They are seizing this money simply based on the suspicion that it’s linked to drug trafficking. What’s more is that if the officers don’t come up with enough cash they could lose their jobs. This is just one of many incidents where our rights are being violated as we are treated like criminals and terrorists.

Every week it seems that we come closer to living the nightmare portrayed in George Orwell’s 1984. Police are more interested in controlling law abiding citizens than catching criminals. Just look at what happened to Television host Adam Kokesh and other activists for silently dancing at the Jefferson Memorial. The police went as far as handcuffing, chocking and slamming Adam Kokesh to the ground. As you can see in the video below the police even refused to tell them what law they were breaking. Surely this is a clear violation of their right to free-expression.

This is just one of many examples where we are not expected to even ask what law we are breaking. In fact in many cases the suspects are released without charge which would suggest that none had been broken in the first place. Also worrying is that we are no longer viewed as innocent until proven guilty. The killing of a U.S. Marine in front of his wife and baby in his home near Tucson, Arizona being a perfect example. A SWAT team stormed his house firing 70 times in a hail of bullets that left the father-of-two, who had served twice in Iraq, dead. These shots were not fired in retaliation as the report reveals, Jose Guerena’s gun had not been fired. It seems that the SWAT team had decided to shoot first and ask questions later. This was nothing less than the murder of an Iraq war veteran. It is ironic that Jose had come through serving in Iraq only to be killed in front of his wife and child in his own home by those who are paid to protect us.

It has become so bad that even going on a well-earned holiday could end up with you and your family being groped by these TSA workers who also view young kids as potential terrorists. In the video below they can be seen carrying out a drug test on a 6 year old.

They are taking no chances on missing any potential terrorists even when the suspect is only 3.

These TSA pat downs and their naked body scanners are clear infringements on the 4^th amendment but the majority don’t seem to care. Soon we will have the TSA everywhere even in your local department stores.

It’s not only the TSA and police who are seeking to control us. We have government telling us how to live our lives like we are incapable of looking after ourselves. They are trying to do away with everything natural like organic food and herbal remedies and replacing them with their unhealthy alternatives in the name of profit. It has got so bad that Chicago schools are forbidding children from bringing their own lunches. I can guarantee that the food they are being served is not Organic. Do they not trust the parents to provide healthy pack lunches?

It’s not just the US that’s demonizing healthy food as you can see from this article from the UK “Boy, two, is snatched by social workers after mother refused doctor’s advice to feed him junk food” Believe it or not healthy eating is now considered a mental disorder. If you don’t believe me I suggest that you read this article from the Guardian newspaper entitled “Healthy food obsession sparks rise in new eating disorder”

Not content with telling us what to eat, it seems it is now deemed offensive to draw the American flag in school.

Students have also been sent home for wearing t-shirts with the American flag on them, though it seems ok to wear t-shirts with the Mexican flag. We have even had Mexican Students Protesting Patriotic Clothing in America. All I can say is that if you find the American flag offensive no matter the reason then you should not be living there.
