The U.S. Senate is considering the unthinkable: changing detention laws to imprison people — including Americans living in the United States itself — indefinitely and without charge

The U.S. Senate is considering the unthinkable: changing detention laws to imprison people — including Americans living in the United States itself — indefinitely and without charge. The ACLU petition: http://bit.ly/uNaKsM

The Senate will be voting on a bill that will direct American military resources not at an enemy shooting at our military in a war zone, but at American citizens and other civilians far from any battlefield — even people in the United States itself. http://bit.ly/t7egus

This bill is over 600 pages long, and even according to its sponsors, covers a wide variety of issues. Something as important and unique as criminal justice should not be part of a military authorization bill, but should be the subject of its own bill: http://bit.ly/twwNKA

Secret Bill To Be Voted On Today Would Allow The Military To Sweep Up US Citizens At Home Or Abroad: http://read.bi/vnp2sc

The language contained in sections 1031, 1032, and 1033 operates to create a dangerous framework certain to curtail civil liberties and hamstring effective policing. As written, these sections establish indefinite detention, military custody, and a “national security waiver” prohibiting certain transfers from Guantánamo Bay: http://bit.ly/vk7fcW

There's a problem: Within this year's NDAA bill are problematic new provisions that could allow the U.S. military to capture and indefinitely detain American citizens, even here on U.S. soil. Senator Udall's petition: http://bit.ly/uTLYhz

As the Occupy protests grow with each passing day, the threat to the 1% is growing as well. It is no wonder that our government, who is a decades long supporter of the police state as both a profit center and business model, has tried to slip this legislation through. http://bit.ly/vL3uSL

The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 is mind-bogglingly unconstitutional, especially Sections Sections 1031 and 1032. It's unconscionable. http://bit.ly/t3ythO

Recent efforts to militarize our justice system and reimpose the use of torture during interrogation are ill advised. They can only further erode the safety of American citizens. In addition, this plan rejects the best advice of U.S. military and intelligence professionals. http://bit.ly/uxrlvu

This bill gives the president the authority to indefinitely imprison American citizens without a court hearing, both domestically and abroad. Senate Bill 1867 is bringing the battlefield to the homeland. Alex Jones, radio host of The Alex Jones Show, tells us what this could mean for America's future. http://bit.ly/tdPxyq

The NDAA is so expansive in scope & dangerous in nature that it makes the PATRIOT Act look like the Bill of Rights. http://bit.ly/rsrNpc

According to Republican South Carolina Senator Lindsay Graham, the bill will “basically say in law for the first time that the homeland is part of the battlefield.” http://bit.ly/vVcYWB

"I'm very, very, concerned about having U.S. citizens sent to Guantanamo Bay for indefinite detention," said Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), one of the Senate's most conservative members. http://huff.to/tItjaQ
