CLUES THAT YOUR COUNTRY MAY BE TURNING INTO A FASCIST STATE

NOTE: Some of these symptoms are found in non-fascist countries where
they should be treated as serious warning signs. On the other hand,
fascist states - unlike democratic nations - have many, if not all, of
these symptoms:

Your president asserts the right to ignore part or all of laws passed by
the national legislature.

Massive warrantless searches

Your president and other officials regularly lie to you

Fraudulent election counts

Government monitoring of letters, emails, phone calls and checking
accounts

Secret courts

A government subservient to the interests of the country's largest
corporations.

Use of torture on prisoners

Courts that support presidential use of unconstitutional powers

Massive spying on citizens, especially those involved in political
dissent

A government that uses words like democracy, freedom and peace while
engaging in acts dramatically at odds with such words

Government agencies or officials declaring themselves exempt from
portions of the law or constitution

Creation of watchlists, no-fly lists and similar exclusionary documents

National ID cards

Massive use of cameras to spy on citizens

A media supportive of, or obsequious towards, the government in covering
its police state activities

Lack of legal recourse to stop illegal government actions

Prison without trial and arrests without charges

ADDITIONS ARE WELCOME

THOSE WITH GREEN CARDS TO BE FINGERPRINTED EACH TIME THEY ENTER OR LEAVE
U.S.

ERIC LIPTON, NY TIMES - The nation's estimated 12 million legal
permanent residents would be subject to fingerprinting every time they
re-entered the United States, under a plan the Homeland Security
Department intends to announce Thursday. The new security checks would
be used at all international airports, seaports and land borders. Even
before the proposal was officially announced, it drew strong opposition
from some immigrant advocates who said it would send the wrong signal to
people who were legally trying to become citizens.
