Indiana Braces For Violence, Adds Armed Guards To Unemployment Offices In Anticipation Of 99-Week Jobless Benefits Expiration
As America reaches its two year anniversary from the immediate economic collapse that followed the Lehman bankruptcy, punctuated mostly by vast and broad layoffs across every industry, arguably the most relevant topic that few are so far discussing is the expiration of full 99 weeks of maximum claims (EUC + Extended Benefits) for cohort after cohort of laid off Americans. And since these people are certainly not finding jobs in the broader labor market (which continues to contract and thus make the unemployment percentage far better optically than the 10%+ where U-3 should be), their next natural response will be to get very angry at the teat that has suckled them for so long, and is now forcing them to go cold turkey. Which is why we read with little surprise that now in Indiana, and soon everywhere else, unemployment offices are starting to add armed security guards. Of course, the official explanation if a benign one: "Armed security guards will be on hand at 36 unemployment offices around Indiana in what state officials said is a step to improve safety and make branch security more consistent." Why the need to improve safety all of a sudden? The 99 weeks cliff of course. Which means that on your next trek to the unemployment office to collect that last stimulus paycheck from Uncle Sam, you will most likely see the masked fellow below.
More from Indiana news on what is a harbinger of things to come.
No specific incidents prompted the action, Department of Workforce Development spokesman Marc Lotter told 6News' Norman Cox.
Lotter said the agency is merely being cautious with the approach of an early-December deadline when thousands of Indiana residents could see their unemployment benefits end after exhausting the maximum 99 weeks provided through multiple federal extension periods.
"Given the upcoming expiration of the federal extensions and the increased stress on some of the unemployed, we thought added security would provide an extra level of protection for our employees and clients," he said.Some offices have had guards for nearly two years but those guards were hired on a regional basis, meaning some offices had armed guards while others did not, Lotter said.
The cost of the armed guards varies dramatically around the state. Lotter said the agency is trying to be more consistent and that it plans to employ armed guards in all 36 offices where unemployment insurance benefits are handled.
The overall cost for the security is $1 million, paid for with federal funds designated for administration of the unemployment system, Lotter said.
Other agency offices that provide job training or are not full-service branches will continue to have unarmed guards.
Lotter said state employees in the affected offices have also recently gone through stress-management training in which they learn how to respond appropriately to angry clients.
"This is a stressful time for people in the economy," he said. "That's why we're not only taking this step (of hiring guards), but we're also increasing our training for our staff to be able to help people as they're trying to cope with these changes."
Next up: armed guards at your local social security office, grocery store, and soon, everywhere else.

In my small Arkansas County pop. 17,000 there has been 2,000 early and absentee votes cast, a huge break of the record. The largest turnout was in 1992 when Homeboy Bill Clinton ran the 1st time 7,777 total voters on pop. of 14,000.
Hey! TheSettler,
Izard.
Pulaski
cool. :)
Why would anyone with a brain hope their vote changes a damn thing. Diebold rules, bitchez. I just vote no to every tax increase to let the locals know I'm watching.
Green shot! Think of all the security jobs that are being created because of such high unemployment!
Remember - This is your tax dollars at work. Future tax dollars of course and those of your children and grandchildren.
Also, this is ONLY for your own protection. Yep! You betcha! Protecting the tax payer and keeping the public safe!
well let's face it...post election, we're going to hear how much more money the corpse known as BAC is going to need....
and our politicians will give it to them....
so, its not great timing that the bennies for the peasants are running out at the same time....
it only makes sense to be prepared for some serious blowback .....because the banks are going to announce their bonus schedules at the same time.
God is on our side, and is spoiling for a fight. Otherwise She would have timed things differently.
Perfect storm and Eris is on the rise.
Surely just a guard would do...and the suckling on the teat analogy is dire by the way.
He looks like a bank robber.. A Gunman ...
They're going to have ATF agents at the unemployment offices? The guy's badge says ATF on it.
No they will have middle aged fat guy w/6 shooter showing most how to sign up for welfare ...
Why, would that be considered 'rude' to the peasantry or something?
Alcohol, tabacco, and firearms. Who's bringing the chips?
I can remember, when traveling in Central America, being so surprised at armed guards standing outside of the bank, walking through the stores, and guarding the bars.
I really have no doubt that we're heading that way here.
I'm surprised they put out such a discreet and polite statement concerning their rationale for guarding the offices. In a way, the sheen of civility makes the statement that much worse.
But OH so much more acceptable to those who don't wish to think about where this nation is going and prefer to stay comfortably numb.
The "sheen of civility" is intended to keep the deer frozen in front of the Fascist headlights of the armed troop carrier.

I'm just shocked that Viacom actually let this be produced (it is kinda old tho)! Maybe they are taunting us.
Absolutely they are. A little understood component in the process of oppression and abuse is taunting, in letting your prey know they are helpless and thus hopeless.
It helps to understand this if you think about domestic violence, particularly a husband abusing his wife. The abusive husband regularly demeans and taunts the wife, saying things like "You can't do shit about it" or "What are you going to do about it" and so on. I wrote about this in my "Welcome to the Insane Asylum" series here on ZH.
The same thing is being done to us by corporate and governmental entities.

Why is this getting junked? It's true.
It has already started. Go into a fastfood restaurant in Southcentral LA - bullet-proof glass at the counter. In my little suburban pueblo, there is bulletproof glass at the teller windows at the local C Bank.
Frogs must be boiled slowly, lest they jump outta the pot.
All the places I shop and my favorite restaurant and my place of employment have "security." It has been like this for at least 15 years.
MsCreant,
You seriously need to relocate.
You are probably right. Psychology of prior investments. Job close. House paid. Divorced. Dad employed in town too, no one wants to rock the boat by moving and having custody battle. Hubby has very successful business in home. Relocating means losing customer base.
I think a lot of folks are captured like I am. We know the deal, yet if it ain't happening now...
I have been watching this train wreck consciously since 2005. My first reaction was a garden, my next, getting out of debt. Now I have savings, some stuff stored and PMs. I am armed and have a permit to carry. But I worry you are right.
The best preparations you could have made were in your head.
With the right understanding of the battle ahead, you might prevail. Without it, your fate would already be sealed. I'd say you are as ready as anyone can be.
I'll guess a claim maybe 10% of the readers here actually get it. 10% can get past the us-v-them control valve of TPTB media campaigns. 10% will think before they vote, and will vote anyway even though it won't matter. 10% know why we have already lost a free country. 10% know that the SCOTUS sold us down the tubes, and it was probably with their interpretation of the 14th amendment. 10% know the fight is coming and know who the enemy is and know the enemy is not the unemployed and know why they are not.
This is going to be a long and bloody fight. The first 3 years will be us fighting among ourselves, killing our neighbors and their young men, finding fault where none exists, burning our own towns the to ground and bleeding ourselves dry. As was the intent. But after that we'll know better. After all that the real battle is joined.
And those shadowy oligarch fuckers are gonna pay in the end for burning this country to the ground.
The SCOTUS-minyan traitors and their assistants are a good place to start.
+ 100
I'd say that pretty well sums it up Cougar... I concur.
Jesus God, who would be left to fight after that? What kind of diseased, rag-tag starrvlings will be left to dig them out then? If it comes to that, the living will envy the dead.
Look. We've been setup to fail. To fail badly.
We are going to fail. Fail for a long time. Fail in blood and tears from every home and alley and place of worship. Fail even as the dead pile up in the streets. Fail until the fire of failure burns all the cobwebs out of our heads and we can think again. It is going to hurt a lot, but that is what it is going to take.
Then we'll stop failing. Then we will sit down together grim and desperate but clear-headed and we will identify exactly the shadowy oligarchs that set us up to fail. Then we will stand up together from that place and as men in common struggle go out and hunt them down into every corner of the earth.
And when we are rid of them -- then -- we will start over.
At least, that's how cats do it. But as we're made mostly of knives and sharp edges there might be a slight bias. When all you have is an ax, everything looks like a neck.
ZH is becoming a joke... a Red joke.
Really? It is a joke that we spend 2 billion dollars daily on a foreign war?
Is it a joke that American families are being forced to come out of pocket to subsidize the gambling of bankers who placed our nation in this state?
Is it a joke that the mainstream media conducts regular hit pieces on any opposition to the elite establishment to go so far as to run smear campaigns painting supporters of the constitution as racists, ignorant, revolutionaries and Fox News followers and go so far as to use what have become essentially paid protesters to incite to become the catalyst for any event that can be used for the nighty news against these constitutionalists?
Is it a joke that our dollar is approaching record lows and that these American citizens who have lost their jobs so that those at the top of the pyramid can send them to China/India/Mexico while the corporations receive tax breaks if infact they pay any tax at all by the time the funds have been routed through a bevy of international loopholes?
Is it a joke that the middle class of foreign nations have their parliaments subjecting to austerity measures agains their will all in order to ensure that not a banker walking underneath the sun is subject to a haircot on their debt?
Is it a joke that commodity prices are surging and these citizens now are without a job, unemployment check because our politicians are just another line on the balance sheet marked as an asset in allowing these companies to send every job overseas while using the consumers as debt ridden cattle?
How about the joke of not allowing a COLA for seniors while claiming their is no inflation meanwhile Congress was able to muster up the need for a COLA adjustment for their own salaries this year.
The time for joking has come and gone. At every potential avenue those with money are using the mainstream media to call anyone who cites these injustices as either paranoid or crazy but the people are not responding any longer. The Elites finally took it the one step too far when they handed over the keys to our kindgom for the sake of a few already wealthy individuals and their families.
Simply because Keith Olbermann appears on a Network funded by the same interests and has the funds to have his hair and makeup done, cutesy graphics, millions in research in order to create propaganda that supposedly gives his message of calling me an "asshole" more authenticity because it appears with the NBC logo on the lower right corner.
Everyone is worried about terrorists abroad who hate us for our supposed "freedoms" well if you want to discuss terrorists I believe we can very easily find a few domestically who pretend to be working for the best interest of our citizenry. So yeah I suppose ZH is a joke in your opinion because the idea of swat teams protecting state capitals and food stamp offices is just entirely too far fetched.
By the way how did the Presidents repeaal of the PATRIOT ACT turn out?
Nice essay. "It" is coming - smart rats can smell pending doom, and will be scurrying away.

Great post JM... indeed... the joke is on us..
JM,
You forgot 87%of all the QE, and Stimulous $$ going overseas.
Something you wil not see on MSM.
Yes it is a joke! You american, high livin assholes deserved to get fleeced. Expect no pity from the world. Amazing that in a country of 300,000,000, there is not one man to step up to plate and get the revolution going. You people mistakenly believe you are the heros you watch on TV. You are truly a nation of retards, bitches, and weak litle girls. Enjoy the meat grinder.

Chinese smelter found leaking thallium into river(AFP) – Oct 21, 2010
BEIJING — A major state-owned industrial conglomerate in China said Friday it had been ordered to stop production at one of its smelters after it was found to be leaking highly toxic thallium into a river.
Shenzhen Zhongjin Lingnan Nonfemet Co Ltd (NONFEMET) said in a statement that environmental authorities had found excess thallium in the middle and upper reaches of the Bei River in the southern province of Guangdong.
Yawn... thats a helluva long ways from me. Sure China is pretty fucked up ecologically, but it wasnt so long ago the the Great Lakes were almost dead, Americans were throwing trash out their car windows, etc. This will pass in time, and also remember that this is a peasant nation. And not the cute peasants you see on TV that are loveable. These 800,000,000 peasants are a fucking plague of retards. Mean retards that go up behind the small kid in their sp. ed classes, and punch him in the back. It will certainly take time, but things will get better.
actually, it will probably never get better. Just gotta keep them out of the cities. U know, I've spent time in Central America, and the peasants there, were pretty normal and decent folks. Chinese peasants are fucking garbage. Peasants are always pushing their kids and wives in front of speeding cars so that they can get permanent disability pay from the car owner for life. Rich people have told me horror stories about these people, and I've witnessed enough myself. Twice I've been told that if I drive, I should drive fast so they would die if they jump in front of the car, and I'd only have to pay a one time fee of 14,000 yuan to the family. I've also been told that if you hurt a peasant, and nobody is around, go ahead and finish them off, or else they will destroy you over a lifetime. Ted Turner was right with his "Worthless Eaters" remark. Never thought I'd agree with something so cold.
Little motes billow into our atmosphere every day. They pump out of car exhausts and coal-fired factories. Hot desert winds blow them into the air. They form chemically as forest gases rise into the sunlight. They are all potentially dangerous to our health.
We’ve known about air pollution for years, but now, for the first time, Dr. Randall Martin from Dalhousie’s Department of Physics and Atmospheric Science and Aaron van Donkelaar, a Phd. candidate in the department, have produced a map showing long-term global levels of this fine particulate matter.
“We are looking at parts of the world we just haven’t seen before and the levels we are seeing are surprisingly high in some areas,” says Mr. van Donkelaar. “The impacts of that are potentially quite high for the quality of human life for a lot of people.”
one of the most dramatic instances on the map, 50 per cent of the population in Eastern China and 38 per cent of people in Northern India, were affected by high concentrations of pollutants, far exceeding even the weakest of World Health Organization standards.
Particle size is critical to the importance of this map to health researchers, because they are small enough to get past the body’s defenses. Fine particulate matter, also known as aerosols, measure less than 2.5 microns in diameter – about a third the size of a red blood cell.
Penetrate deep
“They are the particles that are most likely to penetrate deep into our lungs where they can then cause more damage than larger particles,” says Dr. Martin. But despite their size, fine particulates can be seen from space. “That’s also important,” he continues, “other pollutants, like ozone, are much harder to see down at the surface from space.”

The air is toxic, the farmland is now toxic from the water. This will pass in time ? They continue to spew crap from all the manufacturing, plastic plants, when is this going to stop not today?
Tell me about your sewer system network ? 80% of your water is toxic ... if your in china you are breathing toxic air ....
I live in wetern China. It not as bad as Japan, where I used to live, and its definately better than LA. I'm not joking, when you drive out of the city, it reminds me a lot of Oregon...ignoring the peasants.
You need to print that post and nail it to the cathedral door ;)
You were going great until you ran off the rails RE: Olbermann. It's not a left/right issue. You could have substituted O'Lilely and it would be the same. Turn off the cable news. It just incites hatred among us.
its a good point. they're all hypocrites because they must cater to their base for ratings.
one exception, in my opinion: Judge Napolitano's "Freedom Watch". he is all about decentralization and liberty, whether is be a smaller Federal government or liberal drug laws. FREEDOM.

I may not agree with every detail, JMcC, but overall that was a damned good rant that needs to be heard.
centralized money planning, fractional reserve counterfeiting, and paper money favor the existing rich at the expense of the existing poor and create major headwinds towards upward mobility in america.
The Wealth Redistribution Complex in Washington D.C. and the Wall Street Industrial Complex are the epitome of 'white collar criminals gone wild' at virtually every level of their parasitical existence.

Yep! Commie Pinko Liberals are ruining it here! run man! run!
Or!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You could offer more than a one liner... and striaghten out the course, right the wrong as you see it... offer a little more of your self than the one line bitching that your wife used / uses on you? you could line item describe what you dont like and offer a real solution to what is bothering you? maybe you even help out your fellow man. maybe everything you offer isnt great but one of your ideas is great and we all can latch on to that idea, together. but not of that is possible without you offering up something other than a one line complaint.
I am not being a dick, I am simply pointing out that we need good ideas and if you are holding back... now is not the time.
Thanks, JW
We should just use that picture as the new symbol of America. Masked goon with a gun, all that is missing is him putting the boot to his fellow "citizens".

Then is the class half empty or half full?
If that was a typo, nice one.
If that was not a typo, brilliant.
Brilliant! I agree.
wow, that certainly looks like a 21st century American police officer doesn't it?
Say cop, how come you are dressed up like a third world paramilitary type complete with machine gun etc? Why is that cop ?
Cops are not the enemy, moron.
Bullshit - here in Cali they are tax/toll collectors. Money spent on CHP would be much better spent on road service. BTW, have you seen a motorcycle cop lately? They look like Terminator clones.
When I was a kid - they interrupted one of the 7 TV channels with a "Special Bulletin" when a cop was shot. Now its not even news.
Most cops are rather ignorant and therefore dangerous.
I don't like cops. Had three police vehicles with all their flashing lights going across the street last night. Were out there for an hour on a traffic stop, and, after harassing the poor schmuck, searching his vehicle, they let him drive away. An hour? For what? I think it was his loud muffler.
we called cops PIGS in the 60s; today we call them worse and they're usually deserving. I do my best to steer clear of cops, courtrooms and hospitals. The latter two are places where the authority level is abnormally high.
Step away from the hospital!
Y'all may get whacked with the flu shot!
Gawn, step away!

Cops have indeed turned into the enemy. It has been a slow build to a paramilitary force in every Mayberry USA. Cops are the enemy until they return to their roots of protect and serve.
Currentyly, the ethos is rape and pillage and enforce streetside taxation like never before.
Not the enemy my ass.
"Cops are the enemy until they return to their roots of protect and serve."
Uhmmm, in the last several decades, the police will be the first to admit that they no longer "protect". Their job is to investigate crimes "after they occur" and to provide routine enforcement (traffic, motor vehicle licensing and inspection, etc.). I believe that the phrase "To Protect and To Serve" has been removed from almost all police cruisers no as there was an implied liability suit filed awhile back.
The "sheriffs" in my area, down to the lowliest of patrolmen, all wear body armor. The majority of the time I see cops harassing people, I can't help but notice the dichotomy of the well-armed enforcer picking on and bullying the plebians.
My dad was in law enforcement for 30 years, 15 years on a beat, 15 years as a cop trainer at college (and that doesn't include 3 years as a contract police trainer in 'Nam). When I was 20, he said "just stay away from cops"
That was 30 years ago. Down hill ever since. But he knew, even then, what was coming.
I stay away from cops. They are not the enemy, but they work for the enemy. Most of them will shoot you without blinking, nor thinking twice. It's just a job to them.
I have better guns, better training and better armor...

In uniform or not, put me in a corner and my high paid esquire(s) will deal with whomever the prosecution wants to throw at me... but I will be alive in court and who ever... once again, in uniform or not... will be dead, becuase I am not risking my life for any preconcieved notion of good guys wear a badge... becuase that is bullshit.
All ya have to do is ask if your state has the Castle Doctrine
Castle doctrine - Wikipedia
thx for the link.
"The use of force is not justifiable under this section to resist an arrest which the defendant knows or should know is being made by a peace officer, whether or not the arrest is lawful.
"The intruder must be acting illegally—e.g. the Castle Doctrine does not give the right to attack officers of the law acting in the course of their legal duties
So...is the castle doctrine of any use in the situation that's coming? Probably not. One could argue though, that any man who is masked and armed, badge or not, is an outlaw and can be shot on sight. The same could apply to those masked men with guns who stop your in your car. Looks too much like highway robbery. But why argue? If one does not like home invasion, terrorism by masked agents of the coldest of all cold monsters, then one must decide to either take as many out on the way out, as one can, or to continue a comfortable life entangled by shitty, petty laws.
If we lose, then the authority will decide that we had no cause and hang us all.
If we win ... well the winners interpret the rules, don't they.
We must win. No half-measures. All or none or all is lost.
If I am approached and they dont have a warrent to be on my property... and / or fucking car... and I feel threatened... they are fucking dead.
Here come the fun times! S&Ws at Kroegers, CZs at WalMart, Glocks at Home Depot, Remingtons at your local Ford Dealership.... wow. Look at all the free gun advertising! Got yours? Remember, lead is your best friend and a precious metal!
Heh, that's funny, but did you know that back in the day you could buy a Tommy Gun along with a 20mm cannon out of the Sears catalog. Good time...Good times.
Yeah. Remind me - the crime rate was a lot higher back then, right?
Back in the day, before the Great Depression, you could send your son down to the local General store, to pick up a dozen eggs, a slab of bacon, a Crescent Fire Arms Co. Double Barrel 12 guage shotgun, and a box of shells...all for less than $25 bucks.
I was surprised to learn that at one time hardware stores sold dynamite, too. By the case or by the stick, not sure of the price though. That persisted up until the late 50's. Now, my farmer friend tells me he had to have an FBI clearance to buy/transport just one order.
You don't have one with you there NOW?.
What's up wit dat?
YOU are responsible for your own protection.
Police are REACTIONARIES, and the Supreme Court long ago made case law that PoPo's are NOT responsible for your personal protection.
Their job is to Enforce the Law.Like Attorneys, their primary allegiance is to the COURT.
They are Officers of the court,first & foremost.
Way over the top using a photo of an ATF agent to get the point across that the UE office are hiring security guards.
Marketing 101'
Keep believing that all youll see is a white shirted retiree 'security guard' with a .38 spl at the UE offices. Wait till the food riots and bank runs start.
It's disappointing that my countrymen would shoot up an unemployment office, but let the Fed rape them.
As an employer, I will hire people that came under hard times of little or no fault of their own. But when I see a resume that shows no employment AT ALL for two years it means to me you likely bilked the system. It was not OK for me to pay increased UI and work 70 hours a week while a portion sat on their duffs. And it is obvious between the two classes of people when I interview them as well. Those that worked part-time gigs, took whatever they could find to attempt to not be a burden on society are the ones I want.
Phew, for a moment I thought you were posting a tone-deaf, ignorant, elitist douche-bag diatribe against those 'bilking' asswipe peasants shagging $450 per week. I mean, who the fuck would rather work with benefits and a superior wage when they could continue that life of pure opulence?
You're just the kind of fuckstick I'd love to see 'experience' some hard times. You might find it a bit calibrating to your views.
Unjunk.

On a slight tangential aside, I found lack (days of absolute lack especially) to be th ebest teacher. Everyone should experience total lack for a bit. Really liberating when you realize that life (fundamentally) is just all right like that.
I lived in that state for a couple of years in the US and had my eyes opened in a way that would never have happened in the "rich" life.

He's an employer. Who, as he points out later in the same sentence, hires people. Just in case you didn't understand how valid he is.
Oh, I didn't realize that he was part of the employer class. I take it all back except for all of it.
Why you so bent out of shape givin that guy shit? I think yer the kind of fuckstick that is facing hard times because you lived beyond your means, and didn't have the foresight to see what was coming. If you're suffering now, its nobodys fault but your own. And ignorance is no excuse. I see you can use the internet, and type. Thats enough. Now shut up, and enjoy the ride down the abyss, dumbass.
Nope, I'm actually not in 'bad shape'...yet, and hope not to be. That doesn't mean I flick my boogers on those that are and prance around in a holier-than-thou mindset like a fucking d-bag.
junked. reason: trolling
I must admit, that you do seem like a weasly little cunt though.

The reason he's wearing the mask is because he knows already he, and his family is fair game.
I expected social unrest to begin about this time anyways, so no surprises here. This is only the next notch in the chain of events that lead up the total, complete collpase of the corrupt global financial system. I also expect that social unrest will break out within 1-2 weeks, well before the December 3rd deadline.
I told you to prepare.
Could very well be, I'm looking at tomorrow and Wednasday being a great time for a lot of fear and panic when the election farce is not going their way. Theres a huge getout of trouble free card in blaming everything on 'election hysteria' of some sort where they can let a whole bunch of top end out of this market rally, and then Ben doesnt have to deliver a thing! Insiders cleared from the blast zone, mom and pops 401k's siezed, and they can blame the WHOLE THING on those meddlesome t party applecart tippers!
Major life changing events usually catch the majority of the population off guard. Things happen fast.
Insiders are selling rapidly, yet these very stocks go higher.
The middle class is now wiped out.
The top 10% of wealth are better than ever financially.
This will end in revolution.
Everyone expects something slow and gradual, in this case of this huge buildup based upon nothing, things will change very fast overnite. All bets are suddenly off when america wakes up 1 morning, maybe tomorrow which is ust as likely as any other day, to some major 'terror attack' or other and markets and banks closed till further notice. *Poof*, just like that.
Now I know most all americans believe 'it cant happen here' and they're insulated by some impenetrable forcefield of 'american citizenshipism', but I have a real strong hunch theyll all soon see how worthless and imaginary all that really is.
I see it as prudent and not dramatic. Every federal building has heavier security than this already, and many state offices do also. If you worked in an unemployment office would you want to be unprotected?
If you worked in ANY office would you want to be unprotected?
Be your own protection. Learn to defend yourself. Get a carry permit. Be your own first line of defense.
I agree, but it's illegal to carry in government buildings in every state, as far as I know.
Only Federal buildings here in Texas. Except for entering courtrooms, most places don't have the required "30-06" posting.
Lesson? Avoid Federal Buildings - especially prison!
This is good advise. I think I will apply for my carry permit today...oh wait...I live in Illinois...FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree.
You cannot tell a segment of the population that they are "entitled" for certain things, which will then be taken away.
In their eyes, it will be stealing from them.
And we have a president that is already using the phrase "enemies" for his opposition.
Obama becomes the most dangerous man in America November 3, 2010.
Cornered, it's do or die for his socialist/marxist agenda.
Who the heck junked you ?? You are spot on.
Don't define us as left or right.
Define us human.
Obam is outta the country on the 4th, his couple of week trip starts in India,
they rented the entire TaZ mahal hotel and others,
their using over 4 planes ,plus af 1, and a host of stuff with em, oh n by the way Hiliary is leaving then too 4 Asia,, funny how a whole bunch of em are leaving,
on the 4th thru 7th out of the country... something dont pass the "smell test" here...
canned food for gold.
OK I'll give you 1 can of food for 1 oz of gold.
Don't laugh- the day may come when 1oz of gold buys a few loaves of bread...
It will be very dangerous to deal in gold at all when posession is declared an executable offense. I may feel generous and take the risk to give 1 can of corned beef hash for 1 oz gold coin. Maybe.
Thank goodness in this free country we are protected from our fellow citizens that might want to distill whiskey or share some of their cows' milk.
mmmm. corned beef hash. one of my favorites. tough to give that up. gotta let some black beans go first.
When possession of gold and silver is outlawed, that's when the revolution will come, because most of the people I know who own PMs are also well-armed and won't give up their wealth because some banana republican tells them to do so.
My issue is that I love this country, I was born here, but I abhor what it's become. I have chosen to fight.
A lot of your fellow Texans are behind you. Share your plans.
ammo for gold.
bracing for that repulican win and some austerity in the heartland I see.....
As opposed to what, extending another 99 weeks?
I guess you could just let'em starve...that'd be the american thing to do.
Well. Extending another 99 weeks is not materially different than bailing out the TBTF banks. Again. And has the added advantage of putting food on the table in homes where the men own guns.
And the downside? It's all fiat money, backed by sovereign debt. The US will default on all that debt in a New York minute as soon as things get tight.

BLS Apres Thanksgiving Menu: Cold Turkey
End of 99 wk. UE is good for the bullshit unemployment numbers, but bad for the economy. Less consumer spending without the unemployment benefits.
The government rolls out most of their trial experiments in Indiana.
Helloooooo... Is not this a clear violation of posse comitatus? Sure, they can call them cops all they want, but when you are carrying an automatic MP5 you are working for a branch of the armed forces. If it walks like a duck, flies like a duck and quacks like a duck, it is a duck, nevermind what people call it.
This sort of action should result in presidential impeachment. It sickens me that people think that the tea party is led by libertarians, when really they are just shills for something worse than the government currently in power. Too bad Ron Paul is on their side now - like his son, he has turned out to be a coward.
'Posse Comitatus' yep but unfortuanately the people allowed that to be thrown out in the Patriot Act when they were busy listening to patriotic country music songs about 9-11 and the sellouts Rush Limbaugh and Hannity telling them its for their own safety and security. So they deserve whats coming to them.
The photo is for effect; they aren't putting ATF agents at UI offices.
Nope, wont be ATF agents, theyll be busy with assaults upon armed militia groups...the UE offices will be staffed by Russian UN troops. In the front door, out the back door onto a FEMA bus to your assignment at the forced labor camp, useless eaters.
Red Dawn meets Soylent Green?
Hey SheepDog, that is mighty grim stuff coming from you rnormally sunny, funny self.
What are you really seeing?

It's all major parties protecting major monied interests.
Look no further than the fact neither have any sort of jobs plan. Get out of the two party one money box.
Your either a hammer or nail.
First, Barney Fife then it's Krystallnacht.
I was thinking more like Perkins from Sheriff Lobo.
Obama has a 'laser-like' focus on job creation. Laser-like, I tell ya. Jobs are Job#1.
And if that doesn't work out, his National Civilian Security Force (NCSF) boys will have a green, solar-powered, $50K/pop laser trained on your unemployed ass. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tt2yGzHfy7s
When you see one of these trotting out of the woods, you know it's "on like a neck-bone".

nightmarish!
How's that "Hopey Changey" thing workin' out for ya? Thanks A$$hole for votin' for that Harvard mouthed America hating prick with the pan faced, fat a$$ed bitch of a wife.
Maybe you should go find an illegal and take his job? Funny how the only people working in America are Mexcians
I think its funny, whats coming to this country and its stupid people who believe theyre surrounded by some 'it cant happen here' forcefield!
'All is well, markets just keep goin up now from here to Forever Ever Land'! Bwaaaa ha ha haaaa duck and cover, bitchez.
McCain / Palin was a better choice?
Of course it was a better choice, McCain and Palin would have fought a helluva battle as she politically matured in the White House. Let's try this, electing a Marxist, community organizing, beneficiary of affirmative action never published Harvard law review editor, with apparently no GPA was better than McCain/Palin how?
POlitically matured? She's at best a spoiled idiotic seven year old (my apologies to alot of seven year olds out there). She's a lunatic, who couldn't have her witches removed on the first try. And she's a quitter!
How effing immature can a person be, before you get it? Jeeezus, you wingnuts are trying to put Fisher "Palin" Price in charge of the nation!
