Occasionally, comment threads yield some interesting things. I found this one today at the Rottie, posted by "Eyas" (cleaned up the grammar for him a little too):

I know this is way OT, I apologize. I’ve been vacillating over the last month between saying something and not saying anything. This is because what I want to say is insane.

I’m aware that it’s insane (which is why I didn’t want to say anything), but it’s been threatening to drive me insane (which is why I’m writing this now — to get it out of my head and off my shoulders). I had wanted to organize what I wanted to say but, after several aborted attempts, there was too much to say and it all sounded crazy so I deleted those attempts. Now, I’m just winging it — so forgive me as I ramble.

Most will dismiss it as crazy, but, at least here, someone may be seeing what I see.

Here’s the gist:
There will some day soon be arrests and seizures of property by the government in furtherance of a war on opponents of the Obama Administration.

I was going to lay out some background circumstances/events, and my reasoning; but screw it. You’ve either been paying attention or you haven’t (and I know that everyone here HAS).

The most relevant thing is the repeated mentions of the word “violence” by the Left, both Politicians and the Media. This in reference to conservative protests, Town Halls, and Tea Parties.

Why? There hasn’t been any violence. (O.k. there was the time where Obama’s SEIU thugs beat the crap out of some guy; and there was the putz who had his finger eaten — after he admittedly threw the first punch.)

Of course, the Left will bring up the both the shooting at the Holocaust Museum and the murder of the Abortion doctor, attributing those acts to the very same grandparents and stay-at-home moms populating the tea parties & town halls.

The Left is continuing, and will continue, to bring up violence to condition the masses to hearing of violence from conservatives.

Again, why?

Because if none occurs on its own, it will be manufactured. Glenn Beck has unnecessarily warned people against initiating violence, but he has also advised people not to retaliate. In other words, he has advised folks — when confronted by Leftist thugs — to “take a punch” for your Country. DON’T. It won’t matter whether you do or not, it will be reported the same way.

Once such violence (attributed to and blamed on conservatives) occurs, it will provide the Left with justification for a crackdown. This will include the seizure of legally-owned firearms.

Arrests will begin with the arrest of persons who many/most Americans feel probably ought to be arrested. White supremacists, militias that have existed for decades, and legitimate criminals. This will then extend to persons who are vocal in their dislike of the Federal Government. The term “threats to Public Safety” will become very broadly defined indeed. Generally speaking, the arrests and seizures will spread from actual criminals to include anyone defined as a “Domestic Terrorist” by the DHS memo early in the year.

There won’t be any reporting on those arrested after the initial reports where they are defined as right-wing “Domestic Terrorists”. Once the arrests happen, nothing uncommon or outrageously illegal needs to occur. They don’t need to be found guilty, or even tried. Trials of this kind, even today, often take years. All the while, the individuals will be held in prison — legitimately & legally — pending trial.

Eventually, such arrests won’t even garner much attention, and may not be reported at all, except in local papers.

It also occurs to me that as Obama Indoctrination continues – and gets even worse – in public schools, parents will start pulling their kids from these schools. Unfortunately, many will refuse to send their kids back to school without first having a homeschooling plan (authorized by the govt, naturally). CPS will have their hands full with children taken from homes and parents.

Americans no longer have property rights. Haven’t had them in nigh on 3 years. The government may at any time (often without any compensation) seize private property. Not for “Public Use” as required by the Constitution, but merely for “Public Benefit” as defined by the government itself. Hmm, funny that the terms “General Welfare” and “Public Benefit” are actually synonyms. I don’t know why or for what purposes the government will begin seizing property. I only know that they can.

The inevitability of these things obviously depends completely on the 2010 elections. But, even if the mid-terms go as well as possible (from our perspective) they will only delay or postpone the inevitable.

On another, related note:
Anyone heard anything from the actual mouths, or even the lawyers for, the men arrested for the Holocaust Museum killing and the killing of the Abortion doctor? No, of course not. They’re presumed guilty. I’m not saying that they didn’t do what they’re accused of, but I’d like to hear something from them or from their attorneys.

Anyone a little curious about the white, southern/midwestern guys wrapped up in the recent terrorism (read “Domestic Terrorism”) crackdown? Eight years since 2001, and for decades prior, this hasn’t happened (except for Johnny Walker Lindh). Now, 2 or 3 white, middle-American guys involved in terror plots. I’m not saying that the allegations aren’t true. What I’m saying is that there may be tens, hundreds, or even thousands of cells within our borders. I find it curious that the ones involving white, middle-American dudes are the ones busted recently. I imagine that you will never again hear a report of an American-born, black Muslim involved in any terror plot. It’s damned curious at the least.

Further, not one but two instances where the terrorists actually attempted to explode a non-functioning bomb provided by undercover feds? Really?

Lastly:
I know this is all paranoid, conspiracy-minded, craziness. I see it coming anyway. After all, just because you’re paranoid …..

I’ve tried to keep it brief, so as not to bore those who will dismiss it. Also, I know that some will read it and say “No shit, Eyas. I already knew all that.” Sorry to belabor the point, but for my own peace of mind, I had to say it to somebody somewhere.

Always keep in mind that what’s going on in this country by the Left and under Obama is an iceberg. For each single thing you see, there are 9 things you don’t. In our current scenario, Obama is the iceberg to America — the unsinkable ship.

In America today, if you’re NOT paranoid … you’re the one who’s crazy.

Thanks for taking the time to read my rant.

It does make you wonder why Nancy Pelosi and others on the left are throwing the word "violence" around like a toy, if not for the reasons Eyas suggested.

I do believe Sage would agree with much if not all of this. Holding up healthcare has been one of the greatest achievements of the American people today. It has thus stopped the progress of this kind of stuff (if it is in fact actually happening). Let's all make sure we're doing what we can to slow things down as much as possible. I don't think there's much debate among conservatives that "Obama is the iceberg to America - the unsinkable ship".

Insist upon conservative candidates in the upcoming elections as well. A liberal Republican isn't going to do America any more good than a liberal Democrat. If you can't get a conservative, then find a conservative to vote for (as I did in this last election). Alan Keyes would have been a much better president than either McCain or Obama ... get the idea?

Still, it's undeniable that Obama has ultimately been one of the best things to happen to our country. Do you really think McShithead would have gotten the American people to wake up like Obama has? Here's a song that the libs might suggest forwards their agenda, but now that Obama has things so screwed up, look at how much better it will be after Obama is stopped:

Wake Up Everybody
Harold Melvin

Wake up everybody no more sleepin in bed
No more backward thinkin time for thinkin ahead
The world has changed so very much
From what it used to be so
there is so much hatred war an' poverty
Wake up all the teachers time to teach a new way
Maybe then they'll listen to whatcha have to say
Cause they're the ones who's coming up and the world is in their hands
when you teach the children teach em the very best you can.

The world won't get no better if we just let it be
The world won't get no better we gotta change it yeah, just you and me.

Wake up all the doctors make the ol' people well
They're the ones who suffer an' who catch all the hell
But they don't have so very long before the Judgement Day
So won'tcha make them happy before they pass away.
Wake up all the builders time to build a new land
I know we can do it if we all lend a hand
The only thing we have to do is put it in our mind
Surely things will work out they do it every time.

The world won't get no better if we just let it be
The world won't get no better we gotta change it yeah, just you and me.

Got to change it back to what the Founders gave us, indeed. If you just let it be, Obama's gonna run completely amok.
