Detention Protection Provision Stripped from NDAA Bill
On Tuesday, Congress removed a provision from 2013 NDAA that claimed to protect American citizens from unconstitutional detention by the military. The effort was spearheaded by Arizona Sen. John McCain.
“An authorization to use military force, a declaration of war, or any similar authority shall not authorize the detention without charge or trial of a citizen or lawful permanent resident of the United States apprehended in the United States, unless an Act of Congress expressly authorizes such detention,” the provision declared.
The amendment was added by Sen. Dianne Feinstein. The House version of the legislation, however, did not contain language protecting citizens from detention. It was removed after a conference committee from both chambers worked out a unified measure.
“The decision by the NDAA conference committee, led by Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) to strip the National Defense Authorization Act of the amendment that protects American citizens against indefinite detention now renders the entire NDAA unconstitutional,” said Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul.
“I voted against NDAA in 2011 because it did not contain the proper constitutional protections. When my Senate colleagues voted to include those protections in the 2012 NDAA through the Feinstein-Lee Amendment last month, I supported this act,” Sen. Paul continued. “But removing those protections now takes us back to square one and does as much violence to the Constitution as last year’s NDAA. When the government can arrest suspects without a warrant, hold them without trial, deny them access to counsel or admission of bail, we have shorn the Bill of Rights of its sanctity.

Feinstein, (who is currently rubbing her hands together in glee over the forthcoming AWB ban), "adds" the amendment, and McCain takes it away.
Can the American people not see they are being played by these puppets...?

No, they can't see it. Where I live I have one friend, and my wife, who are "awake". It's becoming too late in the game to try and wake people up. I believe in "out of sight, out of mind". I haven't tried to wake up any of the people that I know, anymore. Once the SHTF I don't want to be on any of their minds.
Asleep and brain dead people can be very dangerous. Heh, I wonder what the exact definition of "zombie" is. I can't even convince them that UNITED STATES INC is only a corporation!!!!! It's documented legislation!!!!!
