Are you going to let Obama and the Feds enslave your kids and destroy the 1ST & 13TH Amendments?

"Senate Passes National Service Bill" Fox News The Examiner March 26, 2009 Editor’s note: In a statement after passage in the Senate, Obama said “our work is not finished when I sign this bill into law — it has just begun.” It will now only be a matter of time before Obama’s “civilian national security force” powerful as the U.S. military takes to the streets. See Obama Calls For National Civilian Stasi and Obama’s “Civilian National Security Force.” The Senate on Thursday approved a major national service bill that triples the AmeriCorps program, despite concerns from some conservatives that it could allow politically charged groups to benefit from extra funding. The Senate voted 78-20 to increase AmeriCorps to 250,000 from its current 75,000 positions. The legislation is expected to cost $6 billion over five years. The House could take up the bill as early as Monday, sending it then to President Obama for his signature. The package, called the Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education Act, or GIVE Act, encourages a broad range of Americans to give back to their communities. - - - - - - - Dear Parents, Grandparents, Students, School Board and members of the clergy: The House and Senate have recently passed a bill that will require all high school age children to participate in programs run by the Department of Defense. Their Constitutional 1st Amendment rights will be severely curtailed once forced into this program, they will not be able to speak freely, nor will they have the right to worship, petition, protest, as they or their parents see fit. This is servitude to the innocent! Only you can act to prevent these programs from being implemented against your children, call your local senate, representative, governor, school board and county reps to make them aware that you are opposed to this issue and do not want your children subject to this in school.

1. Oh boy. If it was on Fox, I guess it must be correct...
2. God Bless Fox news - the only ones left out there telling at least half the truth!!
3. The 'republicans' that voted for this coming conscription should be thrown into the Potomac. As of now I'm just waiting to see if the criminal that was recently shot by the Oakland Police will be the libs' Horst Wessel
4. All the dummies who don't like fox news, why are its ratings higher than all the others combined? You don't let facts get in the way.
5. Let the letters begin! I agree with another poster. God Bless FOX for telling us everything! So much for freedom! That entire "SEC. 125. PROHIBITED ACTIVITIES AND INELIGIBLE ORGANIZATIONS.......is very alarming.
6. HITLER AND THE BROWNSHIRTS COMING TO A NEIGHBORHOOD NEAR YOU! Above the gates of Auschiwitz were the words: “Arbeit Macht Frei”, (“work will set you free”). HOMESCHOOL!
7. bush destroyed the first 10 amendments.. you cant blame that on obama.. the rest of the amendments just arent as important except perhaps term limits.. to hear any bush voter.. scream foul with obama.. is just as outlandish impossibly funny.. and hypocritical as hell... you guys dont have a leg to stand on.. not even americans are that stupid.. thus the death of the republican party.. ty bush.. the only thing he did right.. was to destroy the republican/nazi party
8. I am not but apperently 90% of the dems are all hail the king, who to be fair is also all for completely destroying the 10th Amedment as well but this HR 1388 Bill is scary stuff and the left is just totally ignoring it
9. You forgot the 10th amendment as well regarding states rights.
10. H.R. 1388 the G.I.V.E Act. A house resolution that creates a civilian national security brigade. Specifically targeting disenfranchised youth in order to make them an active participant in advocating blind nationalism. Similar to the Hitler youth in Nazi Germany. H R 1388 The GIVE Act A return to fascism? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRVMNS1VlLg i have called my senators to vote it down and reprimanded by representative in the house for voting for it. i hope all will call theirs and demand it be voted down. we already have americorp so it would be redundant is that it is only purpose and how can you make volunteering 'mandatory'.
11. I have heard other rail against this and still don't see the objection other than simple fear-mongering. Section (3) does not make it mandatory for anyone to participate it states that in order for an organization to receive federal funding they need 90% participation or mandatory participation in local secondary school systems within their area. This still leaves the decision up to the local school board to determine if they are going to add service work to the curriculum. It the area where I live it has been part of the curriculum for several years. It isn't mandatory but is encouraged by giving credits for certain levels of service work and allowing some of that service work to be done during school hours within guidelines. The interesting part to me is item 5 which states "other activities designed to influence the outcome of an election to any public office". Wouldn't that exclude organizations like ACORN that target certain neighborhoods in an effort to influence the election?
12. No. Defense against government tyranny is why we have the 2nd amendment.
