Sounds like the vast legal, social and economic infrastructure that was created to preserve and maintain the right of one man to own another in the good ole land of the free.

Sounds like life as usual for some black people, living in the rural south, at one point in the history of the U.S.

Sounds like what >7000 Japanese-Americans experienced in the 1940's.

Sounds like what some would love to do to every person who practices the Muslim faith and lives in the U.S.

Guess I stop at the store when I get where I am going.

You do know the police "mistakes" have been going on long before Obama was President right? Seems you don't.

So the rights you have lost are:

1. Can't brush your teeth when you are on an Airplane.
2. ?
I guess you didn't see my previous post. You seem to be a fan of spewing your same sex marriage crap. Well spew away but that is up to the STATE you live in. You have heard of the tenth amendment haven't you? Most don't even know what it is. So you go on crying and whining.

Sounds like...........you want it to continue to happen..........for what reason I don't know. You seem to say eh it happened before so why are you crying. Well it shouldn't happen. You don't care it appears and will just cry that it happened before so there is nothing to see here folks. I say BS.

Can't say as I blame them. These are probably working expats and seeing pushback from banks and businesses because they are US citizens which makes them (banks/business) also liable to the IRS due to the new laws.

Funny how folks joke about the IRS but now they will have all your health info. IRS will become the most powerful entity in the government soon. Sad times ahead.
