No one wants to admit it but humanity is under attack. Not from foreign adversaries, aliens, or even specials, but their own governments.So quickly do they drop guilt upon all who are different and in one swift motion, label them dangerous and not to be trusted with themselves. This my dear readers is an aggrevious step into the rights of man, to the core of what makes us human. How can we call ourselves human when we allow our governments to so easily discriminate and destroy the basic human rights of those who were born with gifts?

They say that all who are able to do things other people can not need to register. Well there is a slippery slope, for not only are you including specials, but all extraordinary athletes, all the great and wondrous minds, you are including anyone who is above the norm. It is with these words that this agency will eventually use to take any who are gifted and "register" them.

Registration, what a seemingly harmless and great safety measure it is wouldn't you think? How quickly we forget that this is how the Holocaust started, when the Nazis first began requiring Jews and other dissidents to register. Then it was off to the prisons and death camps. Those who say this can not happen in America, that we are too free and love liberty too much to allow this to happen, I ask that you look back at history with open eyes. Guantanamo Bay and the concentration camps for the Japanese during the second World War. This country is quite capable and has done these atrocious acts, and it seems poised to do them again with rumors of a prison being built that negates abilities. I urge all specials who read this, do not register yourselves. All you will be doing is making yourself easier to track and then be swept up into this prison they are creating for you.

It is up now to the people to rise up against this attack on humanity while there is still a chance. Do what you can to turn the tide against the growing storm of tyranny and dictatorship. Do not stand idly by while your friends and neighbors are taken from their homes for who knows what purposes.

The eyes of history are upon you, how do you wish to be remembered?

And to add onto what he is saying. Yes this is a freaking Holocaust, but it is also a way for America to get a nice little list of all specials that are capable of becoming Biological-weapons. So, signing this registry you might as well sign up for the military, because if it isn't prison then it's war.

Yep, American wants world domination. And we are getting closer and closer to that, one step at a time.

This is a declaration of war. They are only moving to one end here. Genocide. They want to wipe us out. It is the very soul of humanity to destroy that which you hate. To hate that which you fear. And to fear that which you do not understand. This is the hard fact of reality. They call it the banality of evil, for within us all, evil dwells.

Now humanity has shown their true colors. Now we must fight back, or die. We must rise, we must resist. We must conquer them, and harrow their lives. We must be the strong, and they the weak. This is our destiny. Become what they fear, and you will be the one who rules them.

Do we sit still, under attack, or do we start pushing back?

Please remain calm, everyone

First off, while history usually gives us a clear picture of the future, this time it is quite different. For the first time in history, special humans are revealed to the masses, and while it is true that specials in most cases have no wish to harm others (and many wishes they can be normal again), we cannot rule out the possibility that there will be those that will absolutely abuse their powers. What the special population need to do is look for places where we can compromise, to assure civilians (they are still the majority and has the most to lose) that measures are taken to minimize the danger they can potentially be in, while at the same time respect that specials are of the same species, and in integrated into a more accepting society (our neighbours up north had chosen not to put forth such legislation for the time being, and there are actually support groups popping up suggesting the benefits of letting specials take on tasks no civilians can do, thus enhancing society as a whole for both civilians and specials), we can all be stronger. These are very different times we're living in, and the only thing we can do is proceed with caution.

Calling for war on civilians is the worst idea we can come up with at this moment. There are still many that understand specials are not much different than civilians outside of a blessed gift. Specials have friends and families to take care of, like everyone else. If we stubbornly resist everything now, we undo the image of our innocence, because it makes us look like we have a reason to hide from the public. We fight now, and there's no turning back. Whether the specials win the battle, or the civilians do, the world will suffer, just the same.

What I am more concerned with is how there appears to be close to no open consultation with the specials community before the bill passed into law that clearly discriminates against a group of US citizens. I understand the importance to act quick to protect this country from events such as Costa-Verde and Arizona, but once we do comply with their measures, it is the responsibility of our government to see to it that we regain the rights we had lost.

Let us take a chapter from Canada's history in these trying times. The United States gained their independence with bullets and blood. The Dominion of Canada gained theirs with paper and a little ink. We can do this too, with no unnecessary bloodshed.

Alice you make some good points there. But how can we really be sure that the civilians didn't know about us before, or at least thought they knew about us. I present the first case. The witch huntings, albeit they might be primitive in nature. They did hunt anyone whom was just a little bit out of the norm, at least as long as they didn't prove useful. The specials have used up their usefulness at least in the eyes of the Americans, it's just a matter of time before we see witch huntings again. And this time, they know who the target is.

Ps: Btw if i had time at the moment, i am sure I could find lots of similar historical events like these. But alas I do not have the time right now.
