What’s in Store for Our Freedoms in 2016?
More of Everything We Don’t Want
by John W. Whitehead
“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”—George Santayana, The Life of Reason, Vol. 1
( December 31, 2015, Boston, Sri Lanka Guardian) In
Harold Ramis’ classic 1993 comedy Groundhog Day, TV weatherman Phil
Connors (played by Bill Murray) is forced to live the same day over and
over again until he not only gains some insight into his life but
changes his priorities. Similarly, as I illustrate in my book
Battlefield America: The War on the American People, we in the emerging
American police state find ourselves reliving the same set of
circumstances over and over again—egregious surveillance, strip
searches, police shootings of unarmed citizens, government spying, the
criminalization of lawful activities, warmongering, etc.—although with
far fewer moments of comic hilarity.
