Is Obama FBI Using Gestapo Style Tactics? Marine Veteran Brandon Raub Detained Over Facebook Posts

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Alexander Higgins:Last Thursday, a US Marine was detained by the FBI and local authorities for posting controversial anti-government political comments on the social media site Facebook.” 

Brandon Raub was detained by the FBI and the local authorities and ordered to have a psychiatric evaluation. 

“Although 26 year-old Brandon Raub was detained and forced to undergo a psychiatric evaluation, he was not charged with any criminal misconduct, a hallmark of the NAZI gestapo tactic of indefinite psychiatric detention to crush political dissent.
A federal judge has said there is no basis with which to hold Raub and has ordered his release. He has since been released. 
John Whitehead, a constitutional attorney representing Raub, joins RT to discuss how the US government violated his client’s first amendment rights.”
Now I have heard that as a soldier (former soldier too?) if you are presently serving there are limits on what you can say against the government and the Commander-in-Chief but I wouldn’t think that quoting song lyrics on Facebook which may have some violent content to them would be considered some sort of act against the government. Plus, he is a former marine so if he isn’t enlisted anymore what right does the government have to spy on a former marine? In my opinion this is a clear violation of Brandon Raub’s first amendment rights. 
Raub’s attorney John Whitehead made an appearance on GBTV recently and told Beck that“ he is getting calls from military veterans all over the country subjected to the same Nazi style psychiatric detention for their political views.”
More alarming, is when Beck asked if people of left-wing ideology – specifically members of Occupy Wall Street – are being detained Whitehead responded  sayinghe can’t say for sure because people all over the country are just disappearing.
He also reveals that while Raub was in psychiatric detention one of the psychiatrists that he was seeing threatened to “brainwash” him and force him to take medication.” 
Here is the interview: 
This is utterly outrageous!! Yet, another reason to vote Obama out of office. I am happy to hear that Raub’s attorney is suing to change a Virginia state law that “allows authorities to place a person in emergency custody and hold them for four hours unless a magistrate enters a temporary detention order (TDO). Raub was held under this law, specifically Va. Code § 37.2-808, for days.” 
Our Veterans deserve to be honored and treated with dignity. Not to be treated with suspicion like they are criminals. Our young men and women in the military have served to protect our freedoms. It is unconscionable that now they are being targeted by our government. This ticks me off to no end. This has got to stop!
