How freedom of speech becomes libel for those with money

No one ever thought this would happen.

"Give the people a voice and then destroy them".

People with power have the power to oppress the people with no power.

The internet is no longer a public forum free for use, including freedom to speak.

No it now is becoming used as a means of controlling those who use it and those who have no power to defend themselves.

What will be interesting is that in time things that want to be said publicly may not be able to be done as such. And so certain things will end up going underground.

Social media websites will alter in time too.

How a Police State is growing in America

And given how the world worships America, it will come our way.

Since the passage of the 2001 PATRIOT Act, the United States has become increasingly monitored and militarized at the expense of civil liberties. The 2012 passage of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) has allowed the military to detain indefinitely without trial any US citizen that the government labels a terrorist or an accessory to terrorism, while President Barack Obama’s signing of the National Defense Resources Preparedness Executive Order has authorized widespread federal and military control of the national economy and resources during “emergency and non-emergency conditions.” Since 2010, the Department of Homeland Security’s If You See Something, Say Something™ campaign has encouraged the public to report all suspicious activity to local authorities, even though actions that the DHS identifies as “suspicious” include the constitutionally protected right to criticize the government or engage in nonviolent protest.

The dead can no longer rest in peace

As more and more of us no longer believe in divine justice, it leaves it to us to deal with justice.

Now Cyril Smith's plaque has been taken down based on allegations that he sexually abused children.

If this is how the world is becoming perhaps it is best that no-one has anything named after them, perhaps it is best that we have no tombstones.  Who knows after we are dead, the living will judge us and remove all acknowledgement of us. 

No longer are you innocent till proven guilty.

Now you are innocent till proven guilty whilst alive, but after you are dead let the world decide if you are guilty or not, and let the world meet out justice.

This is a sadder world by the day.

How some food companies lie to consumers

It has been found that some cereals do not have fruit in them, but rather have other ingredients to make them look like fruit.
