The American Civil War of 2005 as predicted by John Titor - Above Top Secret Conspiracy Community

Now this is fun, trying to talk sense into a butt head.

quote: 1. A police state is where such acts are commonplace and are the rule not the exception. As one who actually lives in the US and not 2000 miles away, I can tell you for a FACT that such acts aren't commonplace for US citizens.

2. Which constitutional rights have been taken away? You still haven't answered that.


No, clueless. A police state is a state with police powers. And, acts of police powers being used are very common actually. You just don't have your eyes open - only your mouth.

As for which constitutional rights are taken away.

You can get shot by the police on suspicion
You can be detained indefinitely
You can be relocated in camps outside of US
You can get arrested without a warrant
You can be prosecuted without a judicial hearing
You can be searched without a warrant
You can be imprisoned as a terrorist for dissenting against state
You are are liable to death penality for any federal crime punishable by 1 year+


So, what do you think has changed, Einstein?

#3 odd knee Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) - Symptoms, Light Box

Light and Sleep-Wake Cycles

A recent study, published in Science showed that 13,000lux of bright light applied to the back of each subject's knees could shift their sleep-wake cycles. Researchers used a small low-heat light blanket called a BiliBlanket. This blanket is used to administer phototherapy to newborn infants who have a toxic buildup of Bilirubin in the bloodstream. It costs over $2500 even with a physician's discount. If this is possible, then it might theoretically work for SAD. This study needs to be replicated with individuals of different skin types, and it needs to be specifically tested for SAD. If it were effective and if the price came down, one might be able to use a light blanket for a few hours before waking instead of sitting in front of a light box with eyes open.
Side Effects of Light Therapy

Potential side effects of light therapy are rare and most often include jitteriness, a feeling of eyestrain and headache. Light therapy, like antidepressant medications, occasionally will cause someone to switch into a manic state. There has been debate on whether there might be long term retinal effects, but none have been documented when lights with proper screening of UV wavelengths are used. Individuals taking certain medications such as Lithium, tricyclic antidepressants, and neuroleptics and individuals with conditions such as diabetes or retinal degeneration should be monitored by an ophthalmologist. Because this form of treatment is fairly new, many doctors recommend a baseline eye exam and annual monitoring.
