Juan Juan (JJ) Almeida, son of the recently deceased Cuban Vice-President and one of the original Comandantes of the Castro Revolution, Juan Almeida, was arrested this morning by the regime's state security.At the time of his arrest, he had been protesting on the street with a poster calling for democratic change and the resignation of Raul Castro.
Almeida is being held at the nefarious state security prison of Villa Marista.

Actually prople like Yoani Sanchez or Juan Almeida who disagree with the Cuban regime speak out and are visited by State security agents I am not surprised, since freedom of expression is not tolerated in those countries. However when people like myself,Janet Phelan or countless others have had to leave the US in order to live free from fear of Judicial terrorism and retribution more than that when people who disagree with the current administration are paid a visit by State Security agents! Now that's news!
"In another grave breach of our basic freedoms, last week Pastor David Manning was paid a visit by Obama's private army for speaking his opinion.Pastor James David Manning, one of President Obama’s most vocal and outspoken critics, has just released a video in which he claims that on the afternoon of November 16th, 2009, while at his ATLAH World Missionary Church, he was visited by two CIA agents. Manning says the agents claimed that they were from Homeland Security and were accompanied by two NYPD Detectives.

"Natan Sharansky in his book, The Case for Democracy, set out by dividing the world between "free" and "fear" societies. Then employed a simple test to discern a free society from a society based on fear: Can one enter a public square and express any opinion without fear of being arrested? If not, one is in a society that runs on fear. We have, my dear fellow Americans, entered the realm of a society of fear."Pam Geller
