Patriot Act 2.0, no thanks
Good job niglets
Calling it now.
Patriot Act 2.0, no thanks
Criminal code already works fine, no need to ins utionalize a special track for terrorists/political extremists.
This is the 2019 draft. Keep in mind 1/6/2021 wilm probably make the final draft more psychotic

90% of the BLM protests last year will be considered domestic terrorism under Patriot Act 2.0
how so?
hater slinging at the wall per par.
you "calling it" just like you called Trump's reelection?
Did they confront cops? Yes
Did they throw projectiles at cops? Yes
Did they destroy government property? Yes
"they"
Yep
"Whoever, in a cir stance described in subsection (b), and with the intent to intimidate or coerce a civilian population, influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion"
Thats not the worst imo
The destruction of property is scary. Even if you move a barrier from point A to B, that could be domestic terrorism.
Another scary one is the knowing and or planning. If your buddy tells you they are going to a protest, you could be possible complicit.
Congrats
Typical Hater overreaction thread. Nothing to see here
Karrin and hater agreeing with each other.
just like trumpers are want to do, they have no ability to think independently or critically, they’re both ducks who can spell
What's the proper pronoun in this situation?
not intended as gramatical correction, just pointing out the completely indeterminate number/quality hyped.
Not every single protest. But I suspect protests of any kind will be more heavily monitored and intricately scrutinized by the government Big Brother.
And where there is vandalism and violence and especially loss of life, the “protestors” or anti-protestors that cause damage and violence should all be arrested and punished, Trumpers, BLMers, Q s, antifa, and any other group alike.
Like it or not, it’s a direct result from the asshats at the capitol attack.
That's the key. As it should be for the Capitol protestors.
The Patriot Act 2.0 was drafted in 2019 yet its all the fault of the 1/6/2021 capitol protestors
Got it
That’s cool.
Didn’t you start this thread to moan about Biden’s comments on how his planned bill would make the capitol attack definable as domestic terrorism? And hence your conclusion that every protest would be considered domestic terrorism?
His comments on how he would apply Patriot Act 2.0 is what led to that opinion. That’s a direct result of the capitol attack, breh.
There are plenty of ing laws, but big lack of enforcement against white people and corrupt cops and military.
This law will criminalize "right to assemble"
Patriot act 2 was already in the works.
Just that after Capitol all of congress and new president are all for it hook line and sinker.
These kinds of laws should be truly debated and contested thats why we have congress. Yet this is pretty much a done deal now given the comments of politicians and mainstream media.
The Capitol was 90% a security up. I saw it live. I saw bike cops with bike helmets using their bikes to try and prevent tens of thousands of protestors
Yet nah, forget it lets enact a patriot act 2.0 that will basically make protesting a domestic terrorist act instead
here's the puff piece you needed, hater

"The insurrection isnt over"
The insurrection will never be over
Just like the Jihadi threat will never be over.
Prepare for perpetual war with a domestic boogieman
