The Supreme Court opens the door to the police

From Yahoo News:

Top court upholds no-knock police search

WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court made it easier Thursday for police to barge into homes and seize evidence without knocking or waiting, a sign of the court's new conservatism with Samuel Alito on board.


This is HUGE.

It is such a clear indicator of the direction the oligarchy in control of our country is taking us that it made me gasp when I first read the headline.

The Neocon doctrine of a powerful elite imposing their version of reality on the people rather than having reality evolve/emerge through the dynamic struggle between isness and oughtness in the lives of the people is taking hold of our political system.

The darkness of dogma is descending on the United States of America. The light coming with the dawn of an Age of Enlightenment has passed its zenith and we are headed once again into a Dark Age reminiscent of the Inquisition and forshadowed in the novel "1984".

It can`t be THAT bad, you might respond.

But it is.

This is a clear sign that those in power perceive the people to be a threat to them.

And you know what? We are.

"No Knock" looks to me like a continuation of the "Democratic Distemper" program that was announced by oligarchy spokesman Samuel "Clash of Civilizations" Huntington as part of the establishment outrage at the Yippies getting us out of Viet Nam.

I personally think that the Murrah Building and 911 were part of a program to drastically curtail democracy in the US, witness the Patriot Act (junior) after Murrah, and Patriot Act (senior) after WTC.

Citations of Huntington's and other papers on the Democratic Distemper Program can be found in my book of notes PQOLVOL1 via my website colbert2422.com
