into turning people in that didn't support Hitler, Stalin, Putin and Kim Jung Un. I suppose there will be a bounty paid too.

When people were reporting anyone that they had feuds with to the US, saying that the other person was Al Quaida. Sometimes it was even to get the land or property of the other guy after he was disappeared. Or for bounty money. I believe many of those 'offenders' ended up in places like Guantanamo or other black sites. The way this country is now I can easily see it happening here.

Yeah, god bless America.
