Protesting Is Now Terrorism
An activist was designated as a terror suspect put on the terrorism watchlist, which was used to prevent him from protesting at the week’s DNC in Charlotte.

Activists James Tyson was shocked when he was giving an extremely high $10,000 bail after being pulled over on his way to protest at the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte.

Court documents show prosecutors were able to get such an unreasonably high bail set because they argued he was a dangerous person listed on the Department of Homeland Security’s terrorism watch list.

Tyson’s only two previous run-ins with law enforcement were for fishing out of season and driving while impaired.

Even more ostensible is prosecutors argued that Tyson be held in jail without bail until after the DNC was over.

RE: Protesting Is Now Terrorism
there will come a day ... soon ... that you will be compelled NOT to follow the law

thats the day that lawmakers, judges, police lose all legitimacy and therefore our consent

remember this
When you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing

When you see that men get rich more easily by graft than by work, and your laws no longer protect you against them, but protect them against you

You may know that your society is doomed
