NYC Expands Its Power

Chilling. 

Apparently the city that can dictate the maximum serving size of soft drinks that are sold . . . the city that can interfere with the way pizza shops conduct business by forbidding them from selling 2 liter bottles with their pizza orders . . . the city that can mandates that calorie counts be printed on restaurant menus . . . has now given itself the power to determine which residents that suffer from mental illness will become violent and will be pre-emptively rounding up those individuals.

From The New York Post:

ROUNDUP OF THE MENTALLY ILL



"The city is making a major push to sweep the streets of dangerous, mentally ill New Yorkers -   and has even compiled a most-wanted list, The Post has learned. . . . the city has already drawn up a list of 25 targets, sources said".

It is stunning that the mayor of New York - who sought and won the removal of term limits for himself  allowing him to serve a 3rd term - can impose limits as he sees fit on the residents of New York City.

Why do the sheeple continue to avert their eyes to the increasingly aggressive erosion of our liberties?

We, as a country, can no longer afford the luxury of silence as the vocal, bullying, power-crazy minority  dictates how we should live our lives.

As Martin Luther King, Jr. said "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter."
