America has Become a Police State | Global Research

America has Become a Police State | Global Research





In the far past, I used to look skeptically at
those who believed and maintained that the United States is moving in
the direction of becoming a rogue, police state. After all, nearly every
single American media outlet propagates this belief that the United
States is a “beacon of freedom”, and many people around the globe tend
to accept it. Moreover, every year, thousands of people from different
parts of the world immigrate to the States in search of a better and
more prosperous life, having believed in the hidden power of this beacon
of freedom in revolutionizing their lives. But now, I’ve come to the
understanding that this is not the whole story, and even those who
wishfully move to America to realize their dreams, find after a while
that their hopes were in vain.


It may be the case that the United States is a
plural society, where people from different races, languages,
nationalities and religions live and have learned to get along with each
other. It’s also true that the American citizens enjoy a relative level
of economic welfare provided to them by the government. But does this
mean that social freedoms, civil liberties and human rights are
protected and enshrined by the U.S. government equally for all the
citizens living in the States, regardless of their faith, color,
religion and nationality? The answer is a big NO.
