I am getting fearful that the entire democratic world is turning fascist.

This absurd march towards oppressing the common man through the use of excessive authority is frightening. Where does it stop?

I don’t want to invoke Godwin’s Law on my first real post about this trend, but it does have all the hallmarks of Nazi Germany.

As Deborah Davis found out, it appears you now have to show your identification papers on demand – yet according to the American Constitution thats effectively a search without warrant.

Thankfully the ACLU will be helping Deborah get through this completely ridiculous prosecution.

We already have laws to stop “terrorists”… we don’t need new ones. Unless those new laws actually have a more surrupticious intent.

More on my latent paranoia as news comes to hand.
