According to the recent Dept. of Homeland Security Assessment on the dangers of Rightwing Extremism, two of the issues identifying the evil extremists are opposition to gun control that violates the constitution and opposition to free trade agreements that incorporate the slave economies of other countries into our own economy and result in loss of jobs in America and/or much lower wages for working people.

It should be remembered that during the time when slavery of Blacks was practiced in regions of America, the people who lived in the free regions and opposed slavery had imposed tariffs to separate our economy from foreign slave economies in order for our manufacturing industry to grow and prosper.

Black slaves were kept in slavery by their lack of a Right to Keep and Bear Arms.

The people who governed the slave regions promoted "free trade" to incorporate foreign slave economies into the American economy and make virtual slaves of all the American working people. This dispute was only resolved by a Civil War which resulted in the defeat of the slave regions and allowed American industry to prosper.

Our current administraton, which supposedly represents people suffering from the effects of slavery, has issued this assessment which claims anyone holding these effective anti-slavery views is a threat to national security. If Janet Napolitano represents any Black people, it looks to me like she represents the Blacks who sold other Blacks into slavery, not the people who were forced to work on plantations.

THE HOLY BIBLE.

AMEN! Praise GOD Almighty! I believe this Book! King James Bible of course!

I agree with everything but the water-boarding. I know that some of these detainees are fanatics that would kill us and our children in a heartbeat without remorse, but I still believe we have to treat them as the Bible says,

Rom 12:17 Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. 18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. 19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. 20 Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. 21 Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

Don't get me wrong, if I saw one of these fellows trying to hurt someone, I would shoot first and ask questions later. But once they are prisoners, I think we have to follow the scriptures.

Did anybody see 60 minutes last night? They had some of the Saudi detainees that had been released back to Saudi Arabia. Quite a few had reversed their beliefs as terrorists. One fellow was with Osama bin Laden and had met him personally on the Afghan/Pakistan border. Bin Laden had promised to fight to the end but deserted them as American troops got close. That really opened this fellow's eyes. He was captured and spent 4-5 years at Guantanamo. Now he is completely against Al-Qaeda and bin Laden.

Now that said, a few had returned to terrorism. But it was a small minority.
