The Founding Fathers wouldn t recognize America today. The
God-given freedoms they championed in the Bill of Rights have been
chipped away over the years by an ever-intrusive government bent on
controlling all aspects of our lives in the name of safety and
security. NSA wire-tapping and data collection is Orwellian in its
scope. The TSA, BLM, and IRS are all jockeying for control of our
lives. Warrantless searches are on the rise and even encouraged in
some communities.Free speech, the right to bear arms, private
property, and freedom of religion all are under attack. The
Constitution has been tossed on the same trash pile as the
Bible.
From traffic light cameras to phone tapping, from militarized
police forces to targeting specific groups of people, the
government is unfettered in its desire to control the American
people. Police State USA chronicles how America got to the point of
being a de facto police state and what led to an out-of-control
government that increasingly ignores the constitution and exploits
9/11 security fears to justify spying on its citizens. Stunning new
surveillance technology makes it easier to keep tabs on the people.
The acquisition by police departments of major battlefield
equipment emboldens officials to strong-arm those they should be
protecting. The failure of the news media to uphold the rights of
citizens sets the stage for this slippery slope. Police State USA
tells how we might overcome and recapture our freedoms, as
envisioned by the Founding Fathers."
