| Posted 10/23/2001 9:29 AM (GMT -6) |   | Terrorist bill threatens politically incorrect churches:
Note: U.S. Government agencies will be able to seize assets of citizens,
501C3 and other organizations and their members without ever disclosing the
evidence against their property. Government need only allege that disclosing
such evidence may compromise National security and/or an ongoing
investigation.
STILL THINK YOUR GOOD OLD BOY IN OFFICE IS ON YOUR SIDE?
This is worse legislation than the Sedition Laws of the 1790's, later
declared unconstitutional and leading to the end of John Adams' presidency.
Land of the (formerly) free ??
Better contact your senators on this one...
Consider these items in the new Senate Terrorist Bill 1510:
"MONEY LAUNDERING ABATEMENT AND ANTI-TERRORIST
FINANCING ACT OF 2001"
Political Activists and Demonstrators should Zero in on S.1510. The bill's
provisions can be used to eradicate public dissent - - and you!
Under Senate Bill 1510, now being considered in the Senate as an
Anti-terrorism act:
a.. An entire 501C3 organization or other organization, including its
members, can have their assets seized for supporting bodily acts or
international causes that the U.S. Secretary of State may deem terrorist
activity. Political activities that were legal prior to S.1510 may
"RETROACTIVELY" be deemed terrorist activity by U.S. Government.
Participants and supporters may be charged with terrorist and other
offenses.
(2). S.1510 "RETROACTIVELY" abolishes the "Statue of Limitations" for many
past offenses where no one was injured. After passage of S.1510, any past
offense that can be broadly alleged to have put someone "at risk" may be
used by federal and state prosecutors to charge a citizen with a terrorist
act - even 30 years after the Statute of Limitations period had already
passed. Government will have no difficulty manufacturing evidence to
prosecute citizens once Constitutional safeguards against passing
Retroactive Laws are abolished after passage of S.1510.
If you want to read the entire text of this bill for yourself, go to
http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d107:s.01510:
We must all rise up in opposition to this draconian, despotic, tyrannical, and NAZI legislation immediately and defeat it or suffer the consequences.

| Posted 10/23/2001 10:32 AM (GMT -6) | | Welcome to the site Goriller. I'm sorry, but I don't see anything here that should cause a Christian Church to worry. Personally, if there IS a religious organization that gives due cause for the government to suspect that it is involved in terrorist activity, then I'm GLAD the government can freeze its assets.
Am I being naive?

| Posted 10/27/2001 7:16 PM (GMT -6) | | Goriller are you suggesting that the government alone would be deciding what they might consider terrorist activity? In addition to this, they would not have any burden of proof?
You may be being a bit naive, Greg, if you don't see a little tiny bit of a threat here. Consider the (alleged) FBI files on MLK. Absolute power corrupts absolutely, right? Though it is hard for us to imagine a government with as much control as the NAZI's once had in Germany, I suppose that's how these things come about. Too much apathy? Or a whole lot of fear? What do you think?
I'm undecided on this one.
