It Isn't Crazy

Some people think that 9/11 conspiracy theorists are insane saying "Why would Bush do that to his own country?" Now I don't really buy into the theories either, but is it really that crazy? Our government is responsible for Tuskegee, the P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Act, the imprisonment of thousands of Japanese Americans, testing our reaction to biological weapon by secretly using them on us during the Cold War, the systematic decimation of Native American tribes, Watergate, and so much more. How crazy is it to believe that the greedy politicians wouldn't sacrifice some American lives for some money and power?

I know we all want to believe that we have some sort of evil-immune government, but we don't. If things continue the way they are we will be an oppressed people with very little rights. The government gave itself the ability to imprison you without trial with the P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Act, how long will it be before a maniac decides to use it in his favor? The current state is the fault of past generations who are to afraid to rise up and forcefully protect their rights, and now with guns being outlawed we are losing our strength over our leaders.

It's sad that in time bloody revolution will be our only option to save ourselves, and this time we probably will lose.
