and Sensenbrenner says: Recedite, plebes! Gero rem imperialem!

HR 1528 is a piece of legislation proposed by Representative Sensenbrenner that is essentially designed to threaten the mass of the public to comply and conform with his personal view of the world. Ostensibly drafted as revisions to the Drug Enforcement regulations under the Controlled Substances Act--his proposed law would in essence make it criminal conduct, punishable by no less than two years, for a person over the age of 18 to not report to law enforcement any activity involving an entire host of new provisions to the CSA. This is fascism at its worst, making failure to report your own children's behaviors and those of their friends, and those of their acquaintences, a crime with mandatory minimums. Indeed if it is your own children the minimum increases.

Such legislation will in fact force all school teachers to be law enforcement agents. It will force concert, music and art festival, arena producers and promoters to insure that they either never ever allow children to attend, or to remind every single patron of their potential criminal activity of failing to report. The Gestapo wasn't this intrusive and we know what their behavior created. How, in this nation, can we possibly accept such a monumental change to our judicial system? This man is a threat to the very core of this constitutional democratic republic. He is removing all of the safeguards and protections of the bill of rights. He is insane.
