And if we try to speak out against it, we're immediately classified as part of some unsavory group, like terrorists, bloggers, mentally disabled people, nutjobs, hippies, communists, fags, yuppies, lobbyists, gamers - basically anything that's a magnet for hatred. And any action we do take is immediate ridiculed and minimized in the eyes of others.

I remember seeing a few posts on numerous other websites wondering whatever happened to the "I'm mad as hell and i'm not going to take it any more!" attitude that the US used to have. Nowadays, most people that can or could act have atrophied, and those who can't prevent others from doing so.

The US IS becoming more corrupt, and has been for.... well, forever, really. with each day, If it weren't for the atrophied americans, you'd expect a revolution like the ones in the Middle East.

As for the guy at hand, while killing him for treason may have some shaky legal ground, he's still entitled to some sort of trial. I'm pretty sure one wasn't involved.

Side note, if the Christians believe that The New Covenant in the New Testament and other teachings there supercede everything in the Old Testament, then why the hell do we have the Old one? Makes no sense (just like the rest of the religion).
