First they assaulted freedom of religion with "obamacare"-forcing the Catholic Church to fund birth control that it doesn't believe in--as well as many Christians to fund abortion.
Second, they have come after peoples 2nd amendment rights on guns.
And now, will an assault on freedom of speech be next under a guise of "anti-bullying" laws?
We are getting one BIG intrusive government--so as the government of the U.S. expands its power, and tramples on constitutional rights as if they simply don't exist---will the 3rd angels message be fullfilled by this ever growing-in-power entity? Just asking.......
"(CNSNews.com) – America’s free-speech model is in desperate need of an update, says an American-Muslim human rights activist who recently spoke at an event linked to an Obama administration appointee.
Dr. Qasim Rashid argued that cyber-bullying laws could be used to limit freedom of expression – Rashid began his remarks by personally thanking Dr. Azizah al-Hibri, appointed by President Barack Obama to the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) in June 2011.
“Our understanding of free speech today is not some long-held 227- or 235-year understanding,” said Rashid, a member of the Muslim Writers Guild of America, who presented a paper titled “In Harm’s Way: The Desperate Need to Update America’s Current Free Speech Model.”
Advances in technology that allow videos and messages to cross the world in an instant require a “revised speech model,” Rashid said.
“My argument is that we already have legislation, right?” he said. “I mean, we already have a cyber-bullying policy in all 50 states that even without the threat of violence – even without violence occurring, we're already holding individuals responsible for this intentional infliction of harm on others.”
“So I think that legislation's already there,” Rashid said. “It's just more a question of how is it going to be applied.”
Karamah said that Dr. al-Hibri is out of the country and was not available for comment." CNSNews
From Europe trying to force Greece in to a 6 day work week in the name of austerity (Hmmm.. I wonder-if ever implemented, which day they would take off? Sunday maybe? Hmmm...) although so far rejected by the Greek government---to Deposit Haircuts in Cyprus (think of the power to control buying & selling--if the government can control your bank account at a whim). Interesting times....
And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
