However, it is also possible for a minority<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minority>to be oppressed by a "tyranny of the majority <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyranny_of_the_majority>" in the absence of governmental or constitutional protections of individual and/or group rights. An essential part of an "ideal" representative democracy is competitive elections <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elections> that are fair both substantively [15] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy#cite_note-14>and procedurally.

Enforcement Blocked
Forrests order prevents enforcement of the provision of the statute pending further order of the court or an amendment to the statute by Congress. Ellen Davis, a spokeswoman for U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara in Manhattan, declined to comment on the ruling. The plaintiffs claim Section 1021 is vague and can be read to authorize their detention based on speech and associations that are protected by the First Amendment to the Constitution. Hedges and two other plaintiffs testified in a hearing before Forrest in March, the judge said. A fourth plaintiff submitted a sworn declaration. The government put on no evidence, Forrest said. Forrest, an Obama appointee who has served on the Manhattan federal court since October, rejected the governments arguments that the plaintiffs lacked standing to sue over the law and that it merely reaffirmed provisions in an earlier law, the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force, which was passed in the wake of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
Plaintiffs Activities
In her opinion, Forrest said the government declined to say that the activities of Hedges and the other defendants dont fall under the provision. Forrest held a hearing in March at which government lawyers didnt call any witnesses or present evidence, according to the judge. The government did cross- examine the plaintiffs who testified and submitted legal arguments. The government was given a number of opportunities at the hearing and in its briefs to state unambiguously that the type of expressive and associational activities engaged in by plaintiffs -or others -- are not within Section 1021, Forrest said. It did not. This court therefore must credit the chilling impact on First Amendment rights as reasonable -- and real. Hedges, who testified he has been a foreign news correspondent for 20 years, said he has reported on 17 groups that are on a State Department list of terrorist groups. Hedges testified that after the law was passed, he changed his dealings with groups he had reported on, Forrest said. I think the ruling was not only correct, but courageous and important, Hedges said in a telephone interview yesterday. The case is Hedges v. Obama, 12-cv-00331, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York(Manhattan).

This is part of Obama's strategy to build a socialist totalitarian police state. He, with a great deal of help from the Democratic Party, is doing a very successful job. Democrats in Congress are now, as you read this comment, proposing measures to prevent US citizens from immigrating to other less socialist, less totalitarian countries like Canada, Saudi Arabia, Norway, North Korea, China and Australia.

Way To Go Judge ! The SLL* in the white house must be halted in his trampling on and eliminating the constitutionally guaranteed and God given rights of American citizens. It seems taht every day he does something by Royal Decree called executive order. These are in place for use in emergencies but Obama uses them more often than he changes his socks. He has turned into a despot and ignores the separation of powers. We've gotta get rid of him !

In this lecture by Michel Chossudovsky, he blows away the smokescreen put up by the mainstream media, that 9/11 was an attack on America by "Islamic terrorists". Through meticulous research, he has uncovered a militaryintelligence ploy behind the September 11 attacks, and the cover-up and complicity of key members of the Bush Administration. According to Chossudovsky, the "war on terrorism" is a complete fabrication based on the illusion that one man, Osama bin Laden, outwitted the $40 billion-a-year American intelligence apparatus. The "war on terrorism" is a war of conquest. Globalisation is the final march to the "New World Order", dominated by Wall Street and the U.S. military-industrial complex. September 11, 2001 provides a justification for waging a war without borders. Washington's agenda consists in extending the frontiers of the American Empire to facilitate complete U.S. corporate control, while installing within America the institutions of the Homeland Security State.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humans War is a state of widespread conflict between states or other large groups of humans, which is characterized by the use of lethal violence between combatants and/or upon civilians. (Humans also engage in lesser conflicts, such as brawls, riots, revolts, and melees. A revolution may or may not involve warfare.) It is estimated that during the 20th century between 167 and 188 million
