"Is America about to witness a frightening instance of history repeating itself? According to Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, maybe. During a speech at the University of Hawaii on Monday, Justice Scalia warned the
Supreme Court could approve a wartime violation of civil rights like it did in allowing internment camps for Japanese-Americans during World War II.
The Supreme Court’s 1944 decision in Korematsu v. United States upheld the convictions of Gordon Hirabayashi and Fred Korematsu for violating orders to report to an internment camp. While Scalia said the Supreme Court was wrong to uphold the internment of Japanese-Americans during World War II, something similar could easily happen during a future conflict.
“Well of course Korematsu was wrong. And I think we have repudiated in a later case,” he said. “But you are kidding yourself if you think the same thing will not happen again.”
Glenn has long spoken about the importance of Americans being aware of and familiar with the tragedies and massacres that have been orchestrated by the United States government in order to ensure history (like internment camps) does not repeat itself. His newest book, Miracles and Massacres: True and Untold Stories of the Making of America deals with that very theme.
The danger Justice Scalia discusses is not simply a big government, progressive problem; it is an inherent problem with human nature. Whether you look back in history to the slavery debate or look at today’s conversations about abortion, human nature hasn’t changed.
“[It’s the feeling of] ‘we know we’re right, and if you don’t agree with us, there’s no place for you.’ That’s why Scalia is saying it’s going to happen again. Because human nature doesn’t change." TheBlaze
Considering that we now have sitting governors of states (Cuomo of NY to be specific) a city in Texas (San Antonio under Julian Castro, the Dem. 2012 convention keynote speaker) that will FINE you if you come out against gay marriage publicly, an IRS that can be used to target political opponents and in turn are to receive a "bonus" from this presidential administration this year, or the targeting for prosecution out west by Democrat state attorney generals (NM, OR, WA & CO to be specific) of mom & pop businesses that won't participate in gay weddings because of religious, moral beliefs....it is easy to see the next step would be ---yes, the "camps" for these people.
Just as easily, as the secular left keeps using the powers of government to harass Christians and the Catholic Church, when the pendulum swings back---look out. But regardless of pendulum "swinging"---both sides will come together to do the mark-of-the-beast thing. And yes-Justice Scalia is right- "you are kidding yourself if you think the same thing will not happen again."
....and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
