I'm well aware that since the imperial presidency of George W. Bush began, the US Constitution, seperation of powers, Congressional oversight and the Bill of Rights have come under pressure from the executive and abetted by the former Republican majority, who have via the Patiort Act and by outright and arrogant violations of law under the color of "national security", made various historic aspects of our law from Habeas Corpus through the 1st, 4th, 5th and 6th Amendments, as well as international treaties we have signed on due process of law and prisoner treatment, moot by presidential fiat under the color of "commander-in-chief" authority in an undeclared, undefined and never-ending war wherein the president's war powers end when he says so and not before, i.e. never.
We have already seen that the FBI has used the National Security letter frequently for non terrorist related snooping into citizens records and under-reported the use of the authority at least 25% of the time, just as was predictable the moment any law enforcement agency could write it's own warrants without court supervision.
The administration is also preparing to turn on a new computerized record and call searching system in the fall, already illegally tested with actually citizens data, that is expected to misclassify thousands as potential terrorists because of their travel patterns and organizational memberships.
Be prepared, because if you do or say anything to stand up for our Consitutional rights, if you're a vegetarian, donate to animal shelters, or in any way don't look like a good corporate exec that donates to the Republican Party and reads the National Review and Weekly Standard, you're on the list. And I wish that was just paranoia.

Hello. I don't know if this will answer your question exactly the way you want but in my opinion on some political situations the right of the people get thrown out the window and into the wood chipper. Like what happened with Michael Richards. Please don't get upset if this reference offends you. I am not defending what he did but the right freedom of speech. Again I was very against what he did. I heard someone say that," That wasn't free speech. That was hate speech." I don't even think that there is such a thing as hate speech. Again that particular scenario was just an example. I really don't want someone to flag me for abuse. I apologize for the incredibly long answer. Thank you.

Hi there! Thank you for bring this to our attention. I would like to see a validation from the FBI that this pamphlet is the real deal, and then I would like to ask them, exactly how do they think that those who identify themselves as Christians are engaging in "criminal activities?" LOL, that seems like a contradiction in terms to me.
I would defend the US Constitution because it allows me freedom of religion. No other legal system in the world today protects my rights as a Christian better. The sad thing about the Constitution however, is that is it subject to change, subject to the whim of the people and the cultural values of today. That is why my true guidance is the Holy Bible!
God bless!

It's too late to defend it.
There's no outrage at the political prisoners in the US (I'm not even talking about Guantunamo Bay.)
People are in jail for 6 years just for having a web site.
Everyone who says they do will or have defended it is lying and clearly didn't visit the link.
The ELF(and ALF) is not a terrorist group and does not "believe in killing people". What they do is essentially the same as dumping tea into the ocean to protest the tax.

That is an extremist website. Open your eyes. Open your mind. Go to the FBI page and see if that pamphlet exists.
I already have defended the constitution (USMC Retired). I am a Christian. I participate in alot of different activities and not once did the FBI, or any other government agency for that matter, question me or my motives

OK. My answer is still Yes, after viewing the link. I served in the Navy for 23 years and swore to protect and defend. That hasn't changed. All this website showed me was that there are things that law enforcement should be on the look out for. Unfortunately, extremists exist on both sides of the spectrum. I want the officers of the law to be vigilant in their duties.

I have and will continue to defend our Freedoms & Rights for as long as I breathe air! It is no secret that people labled "Christians" & "Patriots" are high on the hit list of the New World Order! If I have not been spared (by the coming of the rapture), My head will roll before I EVER accept a microchip Implant or Deny my Lord and Master, GOD the Almighty and ever living God!
Peace & God Bless,

I don't know right now. At this moment I don't even think I would defend the country anymore. I used to want to serve in the military, I tried getting in the Marines, Army and Navy, but right now the country is really trying to screw me over and I don't think I could support it anymore.

There's a reason the word "defend" is in quotes. People have gone to extremes to enforce their special interpretations of scripture or law on others.

Yes but i do think we need to rewrite it already. You source is taking things out of context. For example there was a terrorist group that cared about animal rights. They were called elf.(earth liberation front) This is a basic guideline. Ultimately they are looking for people who break the law. If someone is KKK he should be looked over. That's a no brain-er.
