I absolutely think this is going to be a problem. This is a government that does not believe in the constitution. They are pushing the Ten Commandments in Texas and Louisiana schools, encouraging ICE agents to perform warrantless home invasions, and arresting US Citizens or their kids in below freezing temperatures. They will go much further than we imagined, well beyond what even China does to control their population. All power must be stripped from them.

You obviously are not very old or know a lot about US history. You should read up, nothing what you mention is new.

  >They are pushing the Ten Commandments in Texas and Louisiana schools
10 Commandments and religion in schools has been a battle since the beginning of the public school era. It was a huge deal specifically in the 1920's; 60's; and the 90's and 2000's. This is nothing new.

  >ICE agents to perform warrantless home invasions, and arresting US Citizens or their kids in below freezing temperatures
Wait till you hear about a kid named Elian Gonzalez from 2000. One of the most famous examples

  >This is a government that does not believe in the constitution.
I can't wait until you read the part about the PATRIOT Act, renewed consistently by both parties and supported by all three branches of Government. Also plate readers and tracking put in by the Obama administration. Expansion of Border Patrol by the same administration.
