Checkpoints stoke frustration among flood victims

Police twice caught a man in his flood-damaged home before the property had been cleared by city inspectors. But Rick Blazek vowed to return _ even if he had to sneak behind bushes.

“Once I’m in there, I’m not coming out unless they have handcuffs and leg shackles,” he pledged Sunday at a checkpoint where authorities were limiting access.

That’s what happened Monday when officers pulled Blazek out of his pickup after he tried to run a checkpoint. When he allegedly bumped an Iowa state trooper with the truck, police drew their guns, broke a window on his vehicle and wrestled Blazek out. He was charged with assaulting an officer.

Blazek was among thousands of flood victims frustrated by authorities’ decision Monday to cut off access to flood-damaged homes because of safety concerns. About 25,000 people have had to leave their homes since the Cedar River began flooding.

    The actions of our Big Brother government are stepping stones in its quest for a police state. While many whites are having problems in Iowa, in reality, there are many blacks still sufffering from Katrina. Our government likes to use these sitautions to prepare for martial law. In the Katrina instance the federal government confiscated guns from homeowners while wild gangs were roaming around New Orleans and denied trucks carrying food and water to the people in need along with shutting down all radio and TV stations in the area. As this article regarding Iowa shows, once again Big Brother is acting against the will of the people. People around the world who believe in the sovereignty of their countries must start to band together. The internationalists have control of the media in most nations and push their globalist agenda along with their comrades in other countries. We must realize that there are like-minded people like us in different nations who are fighting a common enemy. Pat Buchanan, Jean-Marie Le Pen and other nationalist leaders must come together to resist the tyrannical chains of the Zionist-sponsored “New World Order”.
