The NDAA's Indefinite Detention Clause Is Now Permanently Blocked - 0 views

  •  
    I guess the question that comes up with this part of the NDAA is whether or not our government can limit the right of due process of citizens in the name of National Security. I personally don't believe that it is okay to "indefinitely" detain a citizen just for being suspected of being affiliated with terrorists.

Riots in Cairo continue to threaten U.S. embassy - 1 views

    From what I have heard, the security at the embassy that the ambassador was killed in may or may not have been lacking, which would have been a major oversight.

    thats crazy. who wouldnt buckle there kid up? and why was she trying to run over someone?
  •  
    The mom eeds to go to jail cause she is a retard for trying to do sucha stupid thing to a mna trying to kill him and had her baby in risk of dieing.
  •  
    Not only did she miss the man she was trying to hit, she injured her own child in the meantime... some people just should not have a driver's license..
  •  
    This is crazy! Do you think they'll let her keep her driving licence???
  •  
    That's ridiculous that the mother would even take their child to that kind of situation. The fact that she did was bad enough, but she didn't even secure her child, so that's a scary thought to think about. Should she be allowed to have children? I think she isn't responsible enough and seems to be unstable.

New Defense Plan To Slim Down Military, Shift U.S. Security Focus To Asia | Fox News - 5 views

  •  
    I think this will be a good thing for the U.S. I am pretty sure that there are enough people who want to fight for our country's freedom so why do we need to keep paying more and more for the military? I don't think they are going to take all of the money the military has.

Congress to Pentagon: Hand Over the War Budget - 0 views

  •  
    The administration wants to wait to release its war budget, but it might not get its way if some members of Congress have anything to say about it. Pentagon officials have said that they are holding off on releasing the overseas contingency operations budget-which oversees war funds-until after a bilateral security agreement with Afghanistan is signed. If completed, it would determine U.S. military involvement in the country after 2014.

Miriam Carey was the girl in the car at the Capitol shooting. - 1 views

  •  
    OK I want YOUR opinions on this issue... Was it appropriate for the capital city police shoot her once her car had crashed? She had no weapon, but were they acting to protect public safety? What is your view?
  • ...6 more comments...
  •  
    In my opinion, they shouldn't of shot her. I'm almost sure that the reason they had chosen to take this action is because they feared that she was trying to attack the white house. It's likely that if the thought that she might be targeting the government wasn't an assumption that had been made, she wouldn't of been shot. That represents inequality in our society, because had it been anyone else that seemed like a target, this person wouldn't of lost her life. Her car was already crashed, and no weapons were in her possession. Knowing that, how could she of been a threat to the public in any way?
  •  
    She tried to run her car into the white house. She knew what she was doing. She knew she would end up in jail or in trouble at least. If your going to do something stupid, and try to endanger several people's lives over something you can't control, then whatever happens, happens.
  •  
    I think she was using her vehicle as a weapon but I don't think that means that they needed to shoot her. I think she was crazy for having her kid in the car with her and they should have arrested her to then be able to question her for her actions now they'll never know.
  •  
    They shouldn't have shot her. They probably did it to avoid more paper work and hassle. Always looking for a reason to kill people who defy the government. Plus she wasn't the only one in the car. Talk about devastating.
  •  
    It was okay that she was shoot. Because what if she had a bomb. And she was a threat to national security that is why she was shoot
  •  
    I think they shouldn't have shot her.Especially since her one year old daughter was in the vehicle and probably witnessed the horror of her mom being shot and killed in front of her.
  •  
    No it wasn't right to do that. Yes they were trying they could of shot somewhere else on her that wouldn't of killed her but just got her to stop what she was doing.
  •  
    They should have shot her in the arm or leg just to stop her but to kill her in front of her kid is wrong. But she was also wrong for bringing her child with and putting her in a dangerous situation.

The Time to Limit NSA Snooping Is Now - 0 views

  •  
    When Congress passed the PATRIOT Act in 2001, it did not intend to authorize the indiscriminate collection of personal information about every American. But that is what Congress will be doing if it renews the law next month without changes aimed at protecting our privacy from an increasingly intrusive national security state.

    teachers need guns to protect them selfs and students from any dangrous people.
  •  
    Its a terrifying to think about what may run through some people's heads.
  •  
    what has our society came to? what would a person have to do to deserve that? no one does. it's sad.
  •  
    Re: Spencer. I'm not sure having teachers carrying guns would make students FEEL safer, nor am I convinced that having teachers with guns would actually reduce school violence. I do believe that having a on site police officer or dedicated security person is a good idea.

    i just know when i was 12 and 14 i didn't think about killing my teacher...

    Times have changed now,when i was 14 i didn't go around thinking about killing people.
