Default Re: America the Police State

Yes, "John Titor" makes some rather eerie predictions. The out-right civil war doesn't start until 2008, though. Some sort of civil unrest is supposed to start around the 2004 election, and I suppose it's entirely possible that some protest movement might get going in the next few months. The confrontations between government agents and resistors keep getting worse and worse (he described it as 'a Waco type situation every month, constantly getting worse' as I recall) until it reaches a critical mass around 2008 and people realize it's outright war between the government and the resistance. You're right that one of the people talking to him asked 'how will we know who is the enemy' and he responded 'they'll be the ones arresting people and holding them without due process'. That sounds pretty accurate after the so-called 'Patriot Act' and additions were passed.
