You Are Under Arrest

You are under arrest for terrorism. 
You will be treated as an enemy combatant.
You do not have the right to remain silent.
You do not have the right to an attorney or any representation,
and anything that you say or do,
will be used as evidence against you.
You will be placed at an undisclosed location.
most likely for your life's duration.
You do not have the right to notify or contact anyone.
You have no rights at all when it comes to terrorism.
You can even get arrested simply out of suspicion.
I used to protest and organized rallies,
but not so much anymore since the powers that we allow to be,
have deemed such behaviour as possible terrorist activity.

Well we see what has gone on with the Thought control agenda Billy.' Maybe it started Out with good intentions, yet there are always Hi-jackers out there, and I have realised for a While now they 'desire fervor' often generated By mass actions their aim is to divert any Avalanche to serve their own purposes.'
