Shocker: Democrats Fighting Like The Dickens To Kill John Doe Protection

“Democrats are trying to find any technical excuse to keep immunity out of the language of the bill to protect citizens, who in good faith, report suspicious activity to police or law enforcement,” Mr. King said in an interview last night.
“This is a slap in the face of good citizens who do their patriotic duty and come forward, and it caves in to radical Islamists,” Mr. King said.
“I don't see how you can have a homeland security bill without protecting people who come forward to report suspicious activity,” Mr. King said.
Republicans aides say they will put up a fight with Democrats when the conference committee begins at 1 p.m., to reinsert the language, but that public pressure is also needed.

1 Government anti-terrorism initiatives will do the job. We don't need citizens going off half-cocked.

Isn't 'radical Islamist', along with 'extreme Muslim', 'angry Muslim' and so on, a tautology?

Best to have several thousand maimed and dead than risk offending a group of people who've contributed nothing positive to humanity for at least 500 years, possibly ever.

The only thing half-cocked is you---That is if you can define 1 1/2" as "half".

Flt 93-You passengers sit down, no civilians going off half cocked, Uncle Sugar has this under control...

Are you fucking kidding me? No really, sometimes I can't tell, I don't want to be suckered by typical fucking moonbat type.

5 I cannot possibly see a Democrat advantage in opposing this. The US Muslim contingent is too small to be electorally significant. This wouldn't even aid lawyers all that much; people won't risk a lawsuit, they'll just stop reporting it when they're uncomfortable.

6 who've contributed nothing positive to humanity for at least 500 years, possibly ever.

Well, since I'm a fair-minded sort, they did contribute the zero to mathematics. Other than that....meh.

No, they didn't. They appropriated that advance from the Hindus. So they're still batting .000, ironically a batting average they couldn't communicate without slaughtering some Indians.

Actually, they stole the 0 from the Persians.

Everything you see attributed to Islamic culture actually came from the cultures they had conquered and was produced prior to Islam destroying the conquered culture's vitality.

11 I'm flying to the Mediteranian soonish. If I see these fuckers sneeze sideways, I will report it. The last time I flew over they made me take off my Reebok sandals. Lots of deadly potential there from an Aryan, "Hitler Youth" looking bastard like me. On the way over I brought a dozen high quality "automatic knives" as gifts, and they tore apart my sons Thomas the Train toys. Yeah I trust burger flippers, last week, and "Homeland Security Specialists" this week. Go ahead sue me. Stand in line. It will help bring these scumbags "out of the shadows". We are concerned about people in the shadows aren't we? I fly El-Al for the racial profiling.

Ordinary citizens trying to protect themselves need to be subject to lawsuits!

They need to let the government handle this... now that we've hobbled the FBI, subverted the CIA, exposed all the surveillance programs, and demoralized the troops. And don't forget we're working hard on gutting the missile defense programs!

Have we overlooked anything?

Errr... what exactly do you mean by "our scared honor"?

15 Of course the Islamophobes want to protect the right of infidels American citizens to harass brown people of Muslim persuasion. This immunity law is prejudicial and contrary to Sharia Law the US Constitution, which we respect and love dearly.
I love this line-crossing out thing, don't you know that Muslims invented the internet?

Allahu Akbar.

Hmmmm...I wonder what they would say if someone phoned in a tip that a terrorist bombing were to happen in a well known Blue district....say San Fran. Hell, why bother with SF as an example. Terrorists probably get free parking passes along with a venti Starbucks coffee of the day over there.

It plays into the "Bush is a fasist[sic] Nazi taking away all my rights!!!!!" schtick. That's got more electoral sway than I'm comfortable thinking about.

Posted by: Heather at July 19, 2007 01:31 PM (yG+tb)

Trial lawyers are huge contributors to the Dems, and oppose any and all attempts to keep them from making a dishonest buck.

22 What is their rationale for removing this provision???

Well, we certainly cannot have the hoi polloi thinking that they can assist in their own protection. That just would not be prudent. They must only be allowed to depend upon us, as we know what is best for them, the poor deluded dears.

Zero, along with the ancient mathematics that forms the base of modern Algebra, Geometry and Calculus, were invented in India dozens of centuries before Mohammad was a disturbance in his fathers pants.

Posted by: Tushar D at July 19, 2007 01:59 PM (IlgNp)

They just needed to invent the number zero so they could get to -4, thus fulfilling their dream of making 7-11 work.

25 I guess the Dems found a way to pander to their two favorite people - terrorists and trial lawyers.

Posted by: Master Shake at July 19, 2007 02:19 PM (vFJf9)

26 Liberals are convinced that white, Christian Americans are all vicious bloodthirsty racist killers. Consequently any admission that Muslims might be dangerous is sure to send the dangerous pale people into a frenzy of xenophobic slaughter.

They also think we're a bunch of morons, and don't notice them lying to us.

I would suggest you view the video program on C-SPAN Book TV titled, Because They Hate: A Survivor of Islamic Terror Warns America featuring Brigitte Gabriel. I would also suggest you visit her website, American Congress for Truth. Radical Muslim terrorist have already infiltrated the U.S and is waiting to unleash their terror on America. When the body bombs start in Wal-Mart, then America will wake up. Congressional Democrats failed to include a provision in homeland security legislation that would protect the public from being sued for reporting suspicious behavior that may lead to a terrorist attack, according to House Republican leaders. THINK AMERICA!

42 I will have a hard time buying ugg classic cardy at normal brick and mortar store for now on knowing that I can browse the largest selection I have ever seen and purchase confidently. Thanks for being a great company.Although your ugg boots cardy website is entered by users, the site has a lot of accurate and useful information on it.your net shop is kept to a minimum and favours websites connected to the ugg cardy boots Web Design Library in appearance and subject.
The popular blue ugg is renowned for its comfort. But some doctors worry that the popular black ugg could cause serious foot pain in the long run.So some podiatrists across the country are telling ugg classic cardy lovers to watch their steps. In fact,there is nothing wrong!
The crochet boots online retailer also knows bargain-hungry shoppers are scouring the Web for discounts, and its UGG Classic Crochet rivals are more than happy to provide them. So it is putting coupon codes on ugg classic crochet that customers can use to save money on its site.
