[capelipl]

In 2003, Free Inquiry, magazine of The Council for Secular Humanism, published an article entitled Fascism Anyone? by Laurence W. Britt, author of June 2004, a novel which depicts a future America dominated by right-wing extremists. In the article, Britt identifies these 14 characteristics of a fascist state:

The supremacy of the military 5. sexism. 6.controlled mass media. 7.Obsession w national security. 8.Religion, ruling elite tied together. 9.corporations protected. 10labor suppressed or eliminated. 11.suppression of intellectuals,the arts. 12.

Ha ha. Neither you nor Britt know what you're talking about. Historically fascism has come from the left, just as it currently is. You're just a tool of the state withou the slightest shred of intellectual curiosity or anything resembling critical thinking.

Moron.

when fascism comes to america it will be carrying a cross and wrapped in the flag

goggle this i believe it was said in 1913

just because the usa police state does not appear to be a carboncopy of some hollywood image of a police state doesnt mean that an american police state in not in place

you think the avg german citizen knew what hitler was about?

or ussr citizens knew what the cccp was about?do you think for a second the avg foxnews devotee knows anything about USA?

clueless!!

america is a police state the interviewer is a fascist apologist trying to make this thoughtful intelligent american look paranoid

but all he achieves is exposing the interviewers transparent devotion to the ghouls who ARE ther police state

Most of these comments are from right wing people! But it's good to see some Americans have passion and fight for humanitarian reforms. Stupid average American scum believe they must comply and be apathetic to systematic abuse, fuckers! Why do you think France has all these great laws? Because we don't take any shit like you cowards do. Fuck all of you conforming sheep in America and the Republicans!

Sorry to break it to you bud; but it is in fact a police state by every single word of the definition.

If you think this is not so then you have never left your cave...

Get off of the farm and out of mom's basement once in a while.

It's a big world out there and they have these things; they are called foreign countries and you need this little blue book called a passport to go to them.

A police state give me a brake. Colorado is so mellow.

Once you get to them you will see that they are not police states like the U.S.

And please don't make the text book fascist comment "What about China, Cuba, Afghanistan, Iran or Iraq?"

Of course there are countries out there that are far worse than the U.S. that just goes without saying and is not what is being said in the statement.

[rodneykingman]

Fascist, Communist and Islamic countries are not first-world countries and are in fact the minority on the globe.

The majority of the first world countries out there are not police states.

You should check them out. They are pretty nice.

The U.S. is in fact a police state.
