And he gets arrested by the FBI???? OMG!!! Agree or not....the guy said what he believes. Is that a forbidden socialist sin now????

This guy pales in comparison to the lefty pot smokin' lsd hippies..........and they are the nut jobs running america today!!! OMG!!!

Quoted from Henry
Even if he was a 9/11 conspiracy theorist who cares, is that now grounds for being arrested, does he not have a 1st amendment right.

Henry,
Why was he arrested? Do you know?  I don't.  I assume that in a day or two we will know much more about this case.
My guess?  The police have more than just a FB page and some crazy anti govt rants.

I just read through some of his FB posts and JMO maybe he does have some PTSD from serving,  he has opinions on
certain things, but I didn't see any direct threat made to anyone?  I mean this is still America right and people can
believe what they want.

Some people do believe the pentagon was not hit by the plane, some people do believe in chemtrails etc.

Just because we do not agree with things he said is no reason to have him arrested.

Box yes he was arrested and will appear in front of a judge Monday.

My guess if the FBI/police don't have more than just his facebook page, they "will" by Monday

He mentioned about the military now training the soldiers to fight against Americans.

That sounded like his tipping point.

Keep in mind, Hillary admitted that the US created and funded Al Queda to be resistance fighters to the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan.

Many people believe that 911 was deliberately created to get out troops into the middle east. That isn't that far fetched.

The US created both Al Queda and Osama Bin Laden.

Now they train to fight against Americans.

Many vets will oppose these actions.

Why are all the assumptions on this board, that he was arrested solely on his writings on his FB page???
His FB page may be used as evidence later on but I doubt that he will be charged with anything based on JUST
his FB writings.  If there were "actions"  like bomb making, threats, or conspiracy to commit a crime, then he might
be charged with a crime, and his FB writings may be used in his trial to show intent.

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.

They aren't assumptions,  the agents came to his home and questioned him about his facebook posts. After he explained the posts,
then they took him into custody. I wouldn't call it an arrest, since he was not read his rights. He was taken for a mental evaluation.
I'll bet one of those who questioned him was a doctor. I didn't see anywhere where it said he was appearing before a judge on Monday.

Will we EVER hear the truth or just what is government fabricated and spewed by the lame stream media?

Personally.......it appears that the government is becoming 'paranoid'. Perhaps the government is losing control of the 'armed forces'...........yes? Just as in other countries....perhaps the military will attempt to rise up against it's government...perhaps?

Preemptive. Box likes to be preemptive against American citizens as long as it OBAMA's big government be preemptive. WHen it was Bush, or if this was during Bush's term and he was an anti-war activist then the shoe would be on Box's other foot.


"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."

Box has been trained what to think and not how to think.  Nothing but pliable goo between his ears to be formed however his masters choose.  Box loves tyranny as long as it is his tyrant cracking the whip.

It's amazing how effective one lonely liberal can be in a room full of paranoid Right Wingers.  

How many posts are about "what Box will think" or What Box will say"...
As if my opinion will match their expectations... it seldom does.

Let me try this...
Jezzz... I wonder how (fill in the right wing nut name) will act when he sees that this arrest is just like any other...
I'm sure that  (fill in the right wing nut name) will shoot this Veteran with out even so much as a trial...
I bet that (fill in the right wing nut name) will blame this arrest on George Worst Bush... it's ALWAYS Bush's
fault!

For so many posters here to be posting about me and not about their own opinions, but instead about what they
imagine my opinion will be... Kinda obsessive behavior don't ya think???

OK time to let you in on the secret, we actually take bets on who can match closest what your next argument or excuse will be, most of us here have got pretty good at figuring out what liberal talking point you would use next
