Re: Harrassed & Detained For Carrying Cash @ Airpo

I'm currently reading Ron Paul's book "The Revolution: A Manifesto." I have to travel for business soon. Do I dare take the book with me? In my laptop bag? In a carry on? Take it at all? Will I be singled out as a possible terrorist?

It is entirely possible.

And some here will say that you should have been wiser than to carry the reading of your choice with you.

No accompanying cash necessary.

"Alex Jones has received a secret report distributed by the Missouri Information Analysis Center (MIAC) entitled “The Modern Militia Movement” and dated February 20, 2009. A footer on the document indicates it is “unclassified” but “law enforcement sensitive,” in other words not for public consumption. A copy of the report was sent to Jones by an anonymous Missouri police officer....

The MIAC report does not concentrate on Muslim terrorists, but rather on the so-called “militia movement” and conflates it with supporters of Ron Paul, Chuck Baldwin, Bob Barr, the so-called patriot movement and other political activist organizations opposed to the North American Union and the New World Order. The MIAC document is a classic guilt by association effort designed to demonize legitimate political activity that stands in opposition to the New World Order and its newly enshrined front man, Barack Obama.

...MIAC claims members of a “rightwing” militia movement organized in the 1990s — generally in response to the Oklahoma City bombing and the events at Waco — “continuously exploit world events in order to increase participation in their movements. Due to the current economical and political situation, a lush environment for militia activity has been created” and supposedly exploited by “constitutionalists” and “white supremacists,” the latter an oft-employed canard used to demonize activists as dangerous and potentially violent lunatics."

If I am piecing this together correctly, this is more about him being associated with Ron Paul, and the money this young man was carrying just gave them a reason to detain him.

That is what I hearing anway.

This made recent news. I think you also see that they may have had a set up to see if when this memo was rejected that it really would be rejected.

this memo leaked and was an embarassment. Well it seems it was tested and this case show they may act like they ignore it but are profilling anyhow.

This happened in the very town that put "Ron Paul Supporters" on the possible terrorist suspect list.
