Radley Balko writes a laundry list of some of the worst outrages perpetrated by our government this year alone.  A list that includes justifying doing nothing as thugs murder American citizens (in the name, of, of course, our war on drugs), prosecuting people for possessing their own PRESCRIBED medicine (not just once, but twice after an appeals court throws out your first conviction AND calls it ‘ridiculous’ and ‘absurd’), teaching children how to tattle on their parents for unclipped lawns, and the inevitable expansion of extraordinary rendition (kidnapping) to include, well, just about anyone.

One outrageous assault on liberty might be an aberration, two might be a curiousity, but three times or more is quite simply a pattern.  All levels are government are represented, from federal agencies to state goverment to local prosecutors and even schools.  These are actions typical only of a government out of control and accountable to no one.  If you want to know why thousands think Ron Paul might well be our only hope to avoid tyranny, this article is a fine place to start.
