Congressman rips Democrats for scuttling protection for passengers who report suspicious activity

King.jpg

Video at Hot Air. He says they're blinded by partisanship and overly influenced by groups like CAIR. I think he's right.

See something, say something, sue something, it's the American way.

Sort of OT:

A NJ woman reported a rocket launcher in her front yard this morning. Can the folks who left it there sue her for reporting something suspicious???

How angry am I?
I will not vote for a democrat again.

This is very sad. PC extremists pulling the carpet from under America. If people do not come forward and report how could we have stopped fort dix plot. I guess now we have to be resigned for a series of devastating attacks by the cohorts of peaceful religion. Dhimmitude is only beginning. God Bless America.

Dems are dangerous.

There can be changes in the Senate bill, so still good time to tell your local politician, ie senator to push for protection of Joe Public who reports something suspicious without being sued by the likes of these trial lawyers, cair's best friend aclu and their lawyers.

... how do you spell double jeopardy?

Misprision of Felony: "Whoever, having knowledge of the actual commission of a felony cognizable by a court of the United States, conceals and does not as soon as possible make known the same to some judge or other person in civil or military authority under the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both."
[United States Code, Title 18, Part I, Chapter I, Section 4 ]
Sued if you do... imprisoned if you don't.

This is absolutely disgusting. However.. isn't it possible to report things without giving one's name? I know I'll be reporting whatever suspicious activity I encounter regardless of who plans to sue. Let them explain themselves in court if they do.


Let me see if I have this straight now.

If I see some suspicious activity around DNC headquarters, like something that looks like someone may be planting a bomb, I should keep on walking and keep my mouth shut?

Yup, sounds like that’s what it means.

How much were the Democrats paid to sell out their constituents? It will be a cold day in Hell before I ever vote Democratic again.

God bless the few remaining sane congressmen left in Washington.

I disagree with Mr. King only because my take on this situation is even worse than his. I maintain that the Democratic Party has been bought into its current state of submission to Political Correctness by the well-monied likes of George Soros and others on the far left (and Islamic pressure groups and mosques). That may be why they are afraid to help Bush--they could then lose their cushy financial backing by the Islamo-Communist-Fascist billionaires who have them in their pockets if they were to help the Bush Administration.

Yet, as someone posted above, Americans are legally OBLIGATED to report potential criminal activity such as terrorism. The Dems are evidently now so out of touch they aren't even aware of this. And if they get their way with this "John Doe" bill (let us pray to God that they DON'T!!!)they are quite probably going to get thousands of innocent people murdered by Islam while flying the now-Unfriendly American skies.


Forget about the Democrats. Hopefully we can construct a new, more legitimate third party to take its place and heave the likes of Nancy Pelosi et al into the political oblivion they so richly deserve.

Deliver us from Islam!!!

Timur - "How much were the Democrats paid to sell out their constituents?"

Both the dims and Jorge "ROP" Arbusto are paid in pesos and riyals, depending on to whom they are trying to sell us out to this time.

...And I for one shall very soon re-register as a Republican.

--- Lifelong democrat

The democraps are simply pawns in the terrorist's chess game; they are the terrorist's 'way in'.

"This terrorist foothold in the west is brought to you by the democratic party."

And what's more, the dems are now putting Joe Citizen in the position of risking losing his livelihood for obeying the law, for doing the right thing, for being prudent and standing up against a subversive, strategizing, and calculating enemy...Buffoons! Morons! They are giving lessons on How-to-Get-Conquered-By-Anyone. Giving our ENEMY protection from us instead of what the dems JOBS are of protecting US from our ENEMY!!!

Pawns, they are! Disgusting!!!!

It would be interesting seeing this taken to its logical conclusion.
Say none of the staff in a bank that's just been robbed will cooperate with the police, unless they are granted immunity from being sued. One of them thinks one of the robbers was an ex-employee, but he's not going to say something, just in case he's wrong.
I just couldn't see this happening in the uk. The judge would just throw it out of court, as being trivial and mischevious(I hope).

Only the unions contribute more money to the DIMs than the trial lawyers. The trial lawyers see this bill as an infringement on their potential income. Of course, the security of the American people can only come in second to that.

So now, you have wide open borders endangering Americans, as per Bush the leading Republican, and more treasonous actions like this, coming from the DIM side of the isle.

Naturally my two Democratic Senators voted no (Murray and Cantwell). They obviously don't believe in security, just vote pandering.

When the FBI finds the owner(s) of that missile launcher reported in New Jersey today, maybe CAIR can sue the poor woman who reported it to police.

Its not just about being sued it’s about you or your family being targeted by the rop. Would anyone testify against the mob, even with guvment protection (means nothing considering they are briefing/hiring islamist sympathizers) they might end up dead. It is no different than that, lets face it, the guvment has imported a criminal gang into the country under the guise of immigration/humanitarian aid and yet that wasn’t enough they now expect us to stick our necks out and hope we will not be sued, prosecuted, killed, or ignored. When the guvment proves to me that they are aware of the threat and are willing to face it honestly instead of endangering the majority I will gladly assist, until then regarding them, I stick my neck out for none of them(publicly).

From the very beginning of this current phase of jihad against the West, the legal profession in this country has behaved disgracefully. It has not covered itself in glory, from civilian trail lawyers to the JAG Corps, as a body they have been obstructionist to even outright collaborators with the enemy. How in the hell have we arrived at this state of affairs whereby the majority of a profession in this country have opted to to take a side against their own country? The vast majority of the Dhimmicraps in Congress and the Senate are lawyers by training and profession. And they are ensconced within a legal culture that seems incapable of putting the American people uppermost in their considerations. Instead, they side with the ACLU, NLG, Center for Constitutional Rights, CAIR, and other organizations bent upon our defeat.

I changed parties a few years ago and I cannot fathom any reason why in the future I could ever vote for a Dhimmicrap again.

So the muslims are Subversives and the democrats are Obstructionists/Collaborators...S + O/C = not a good formula for America. Muslims like S + O/C because it is their math, they originated this particular equation. and to them, it solves as: S + O/C = Islam Rules.

I could not believe what I was listening to. If it is not ridiculous I don't know what else could it be?

Dems are pathetic with no real backbone. Some are so pro-Muslim, when you hear'em you wouldn't believe they are fellow Americans on our side. They talk the same cra. the Muslims do..they think the Muslims are victimized.

To heck with them!

Not to worry, Fred. When the Islamists take over, hopefully they'll follow Shakespear's edict: First, kill all the lawyers.

DIMwits think all minorities are victims. In fact, they encourage them to be victims so they can enlist these victims as brainless voters for their socialist goals.

Pete King in the video says Senators have to be contacted TODAY on this. It is being deliberated NOW.

Contact your Senators and politely tell them if they want your vote in the future you expect them to protect from lawsuits people who in good faith report suspicious and possibly terrorist activity.

You can easily get your Senators' phone numbers here.

Follow the money...simple math...
1) They followed instructions of their masters...the money movers who own them (their own words)...
2) their owners also finance CAIR, who wanted it crushed...
3) among those money movers is Ford, Tides Foundation ("tadayza heinzzzzz keddy"-yes, john kerry's wife, and owner)...and george "the capo" soros, who, in turn, has bought & paid for that very same perty seeking to crush protective measures from predatory islamists and their bogus lawsuits against john does.
http://www.discoverthenetwork.org has extensive money trails of these insidious groups.

What goes around comes around.

Yeah! Contact Casey and Spectator! Ha, ha, ha. Remember one of the best versed Senatorial candidates on the nature of Islam - Santorum - was defeated because he was too divisive.

I know that more than 1/2 of the PA residents I meet have jelly for backbones.

How about the rest of you?

"It's an Extremists' world, the moderates just live in it."

There's one group of folks they CAN'T sue...
Federal pensioners in the US, federal recipients of any proceeds from SSI, SSD, SSA (social security), military retirement, any VA pension, any Federal retirement...they're exempt from any legal or equitable process whatsoever.

So if you're retired military, you can tell the CAIRbears to F.O.A.D....and there's not a damned thing they can do about it, and even if you have other incomes, the sue-junkie has to prove it wasn't from pension funds, which finding jimmy hoffa's body would prove easy compared to that...lol.

Shove THAT up your hoop, douggieboy!
Did I mention, douggieboy, I AM JOHN DOE TOO!!!

The Dims would waste no time giving total anonymity to anyone whistleblowing on Halliburton or Dick Cheney, etc.

Their PC on this is breathtakingly dangerous.

Muslim apologist Robert Crane noted, in the linked article under the heading, "Honesty is the Best Policy, Bob" elsewhere on this site:

"When the imams in New Jersey rose up against the “silent majority” of Muslim lay leaders, their concern was the defensive lay response of “don’t blame us.” In the minds of most Americans this constitutes tacit support of Muslim terrorists, because in America, unlike in most of the rest of the world, silence implies support..."

This implies that only those operating under the American version of the "Western Cultural Bias" believe that silence implies support.

Meaning, if you believe that speaking/acting out against injustice/crime/lies is an imperative, then you are among a minority in the world, and a mistaken (imperialistic, hegemonic) one at that.

It is important to counter the jihadi line whenever it comes up, and report suspicious behavior whenever you see it, don't fall for the idea that only reactionary/nationalistic/choose your epithet people do this, and if you were globalist/sophisticated/cool like "most of the rest of the world", you would keep your mouth shut.

I read somewhere that the demies (or should we say dhimmis? Or demi-dhimmis?) actually consulted with CAIR, ACLU, and the Trial Lawyers for their marching orders to defeat the King Amendment.

We have a real problem of appeasement of Islam by both Congress and the Administration, including Bush, Rice, and Chernoff and their subordinates. This is now approaching the level of high treason against the American people by the very people we elected to defend the nation, on both sides of the aisle, either through ignorance, malice, or cupidity.

It is a very big deal for CAIR to get the King Amendment defeated, as well as the Trial Lawyers – one for power, the other for money. CAIR and their masters desperately wants to shut down all opposition to Islam in the courts, on the radio, and on the internet. Their primary assault is chaining the First Amendment to prevent any criticism of the Islamic menace.

We know Saudi Arabia and the Gulf states are funding CAIR and numerous other agencies of Islamic subversion in this country.

We know they are richly endowing Middle East study departments at the big universities to spread false propaganda about Islam being a religion of peace.

We know they have indoctrinated graduates over the last 30 years that are now serving in the State Department and in other agencies where they are like automatons doing the bidding of their Middle East masters.

We know that Bush and Rice are on a mission to give a historic part of Christian Europe – the Serbian Province of Kosovo to Islam. Other European countries who are blithely ignoring the Muslim menace in their midst should take note that the American government might just pull a Kosovo on them in the future, whether under a Bush or a Clinton. The sooner Europeans who love freedom get off their butts and deal with this menace, the better. More likely however the Euros will resign their fate to Islam which the Dutch and Swedes are in the process of doing. Maybe the jihadis will let them have blue burkas instead of black, as long as they recognize their new dhimmi status as subdued and pay the tax.

We know that the Saudis and Gulf States and Iran sponsor hate marches against Israel and against the war on terror in our universities and on our streets. Since Islam is nothing if not terror incarnate, it is the war with Islam, started by Islam, a war without end until they or us are defeated.

We know they have infiltrated the Department of Education and have set curriculums to indoctrinate our children with Islamic propaganda.

We know they permeate the Justice Department and the Defense Department.

As someone pointed out above we know the entire trail lawyer profession - civilian, military, naval, and court judges (grant a few exceptions) are on the side of the Islamic enemy and against the American people; either because it puts money in their pocket or they are totally ignorant of the danger of militant jihadi Islam, or more likely both.

We know that Grover Norquist has used his considerable influence n the White House to place Muslims and Islamic sympathizers in critical positions throughout the government where they can influence policy and maybe even turn state secrets over to the enemy.

We know that the socialist extreme left in their visceral hate for the American capitalistic system will side with any enemy of America to bring it down. Their minions such as Peloci, Reid, Clinton, Kennedy, etc., are so consumed with hate for George Bush as well as discontent with the Capitalist system that they will champion any action that their extreme left masters promote to aid their socialist aims, including supporting the Islamic jihadi menace, without any regard for the safety of the American people.

So how strong is the American Constitution against this menace, this menace that has infiltrated our government, our political parties, our schools, our defense agencies, our courts, and sets its policies against us?

In their wildest nightmares about threats to the young nation, our Founding Fathers, all Patriots, would never have dreamed that a foreign nation could subvert the entire federal government structure with money.

Franklin on the new Constitution: “You have a Republic, Madam, if you can keep it.”

Can we keep it indeed, against such a menace?

There are 16 months between now and the 2008 election. Is the nation strong enough to withstand Islamic and Socialist assaults from within (and probably also from without). Assaults that are aiming crippling blows to our freedom and liberty? Assaults which are likely to happen before November 2008?

Defeat of the King Amendment is one such assault by the enemies of America.

Keep in mind that the main ones who refused to support the protection were the leadership faction of the party, and their bought-&-paid-for-by-soros accomplices...the less leftist-minded "blue dogs" all voted to support it-what's left of them, as well as the two from NY, like hitlery, who knew if they didn't support it, it would spell their death knell of electability.
Here's the record...
http://michellemalkin.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2007/07/rolljohndoe.jpg

Sad to say, the blue dogs aren't running the party anymore...and haven't for some time.
They'll try to avoid this as they tried to evade it quietly...but the voters will remember this one.

Peter King for President. If only.
He the man. He is one of the few who is truly outspoken and gets it.
