"National Service" for what ? Damn ! I shouda known never to open the door for those student canvassers !!!!

Ding - Dong . . . .

"Hey, dude, I'm with Americorps and we'd like to come in and . . . .. well, maybe look around ? Is that OK ?
D . . . do ya have any guns is the first question that they want me to ask each resident. Is the firearm locked up so that it cannot be used against any potential - would be intruders ? All magazines are unloaded and ammo is locked up separately in the certified americorp ammo lockbox in an area no closer than 50 feet from your certified gunlocker ? Wait just a minute ! There isn't a 50 foot measurable length in this studio apartment !''
''Says here that you're in violation, sir ! Police (the real kind) are on there way, sir."

''Are there any juveniles living here, sir ? Who's pants are these, sir ? they appear to be those of an adolescent girl, sir ! No, I don't care if the mother's washing machine took a crap and she dropped off your daughter's laundry to do, sir ! So how many times HAVE you molested your daughter, sir and when exactly did you stop molesting her, SIR ? !''

''Where is your water heater, sir ? Do you have earthquake straps and a thermal blanket on your water heater ? Oh, that's right, I forgot, you are a renter, sorry.''

''May we swab your gums for our DNA databank ? NO ? Why ? what exactly are you hiding, sir ?''

''May we scrape a paint sample off of your landlord's wall to verify that the paint is lead and asbestos safe - environmentally friendly.''

''Do you have a low flow toilet, sir ?"

"I don't care how many times that you have to flush it after you take a shit, wasting even more water than non low flow toilets, sir ! Whatever it says on the paperwork, we have to do sir ! No, you may not, under any circumstances appeal, whether or not you're right or wrong !
For we are here to SERVE"

Great, as if the indoctrination process in public schools wasn't enough, but now they want a "Corps" to act as what? The Liberals version of the Hitler youth?

This is how I will answer the door if they come knocking.....

"So, you're one of those "rich guys", huh ? $50 Grand last year, huh ? I only made $15 grand last year as an Americorps volunteer."

''So, what did you do with all of that money ?
& What exactly is it that you do for a living, Mr Consult ?''

''Oh, and before I leave you with the police (that have just arrived, screeching to a stop). What's your neighbor, "Stampede" like ? Is there anything that you think that we should know about him ? C'mon, you can tell uuuuusssss. We'll buy you lunch ! Isn't that right officers?''

Your mind works in mysterious ways Factious. I get the feeling that without the Gov't --you would develop alzheimer's. These elaborate conspiracy theories you attach with every piece of legislation actually keep you SANE!

I want to know where were the conspiracy theories for the Patriot Act...Gramm/Leach/Bliley...Halliburton Act of 2003...Blackwater...etc.

You know that makes no sense, don't you? And you hopefully know that the stuff described in this thread (patroling and controling the neighborhood) wasn't part of the duties and responsibilities of the Hitlerjugend. The Kriminalpolizei and the Ordnungspolizei were in charge of that.

But I understand your "fear" here. It's leaves kind of a bitter aftertaste to have something like that in a democratic society.

If only these incompetent, luncheon - diner gathering louts would only READ AND UNDERSTAND the pieces of crap legislation that they autograph, I might have a degree more of confidence in "our" government.

I must say, I really can't blame them for not reading all of the hazy legalistic gibberish contained in each piece of legislation, non sequiturs, dialectical :bs: it's enough to give you a stomach ache ! They must vote on a lot of this crap after their lunchtime festivities (C/O the lobbyists). You know what it feels like trying to get back to work after a four course, 2 martini, 1 glass of wine luncheon ! Who wants to have anything to with critical thinking ! just vote the way that the majority votes so you can go home and nap ! :sleep:

Talk about the life of riley ! Who are these guys kiddin ? :D

I hate businesses and organizations that have "Ameri" at the beginning of their name.

AmeriCorps
AmeriSuites
AmeriTrade
etc.

It's such a cock tease for the eyes. We see "Ameri" and get all pumped up, thinking we're about to read "America", but then we see some bullshit business name and it's like :wtf:.

The hitler youth is the closest thing I could think of where youths were used to report on the activities of members of society. You don't have to quotation fear for me.... I am afraid, and my little emoticon above wasn't a lie or a joke.

Boy talk about some paranoid conspiracy mentalities.This volunteer increase in funding IMO is so that young people can get some money for further education(still not very much though) via other ways besides joining the military and then having to engage in questionable things like going to Iraq or other places and killing people for lies promoted by criminal president and his cronies.How anybody could think rewarding civilian volunteer service in such a way has a sinister side unlike military service is baffling.Lets give the youth of america some other option then just military service to get money for education is great idea.:thumbsup:

Yeah and that group was known as the Gestapo.


I got an idea: suppose one of these crypto, closet Nazis comes to your door, tell them sure you can come in, but can I go in your house first?

No bud I'm not surprised.For some anything the govt does has some secret agenda.But I'm missing where the idea that this would lead to kids being rats or denouncing anyone as people like the hitler youth were taught to do.I can think of a couple examples though of that kind of thing being encouraged in the US.I have heard of programs that encouraged school children to tell if they saw their parents smoking pot as an example.And when the govt after 9/11 started encourging people to report "suspicious" activity which led to things like totally innocent people being harrased and removed from planes etc.Things like encouraging kids to rat on parents for pot smoking are bad ideas IMO or being able to just denounce your neighbor will be abused by a neighbor who has their own reasons for wanting to cause trouble for their neighbor.Not saying people shouldn't report crimes but the govt needs to be carefull about asking for that kind of help and encouraging maybe false claims.
