Publisher's summary

A revealing audiobook about how government, law enforcement, and bureaucratic interests are seizing our property, our children, our savings, and our fundamental American rights - and how to fight back.

Liberty and justice for all is the bedrock of American democracy, but has America betrayed our founders’ vision for the nation? In When They Come For You, New York Times best-selling author David Kirby exposes federal, state, and local violations of basic constitutional rights that should trouble every American, whether liberal, conservative, or libertarian. Free speech, privacy, protection from unreasonable search and seizure, due process, and equal protection under the law are rights that belong to every American citizen but are being shredded at an alarming rate all across the country.

Police and prosecutorial misconduct, overzealous bureaucrats with virtually unchecked power, unwarranted searches, SWAT-style raids on the homes of innocent Americans, crackdowns on a free press and the right to protest, removing children from their parents without cause, “debtors' prisons", restricting freedom of health choice, seizing private assets for government profit, and much more demonstrate how deeply our rights and our national values are eroding.

When They Come For You uses true stories of everyday citizens to reveal how our federal, state, and municipal governments, police, lawmakers, judges, revenue agents, unelected power brokers, and even government social workers are eviscerating our most fundamental liberties. And, it shows how people are fighting back - and winning.

Must listen

This book, is heartwrenching but so necessary. You don't know how corrupt government institutions are. Always be informed

Imagine This...

A book can tell you a lot about the culture of it's time and the possible future. published in 2019 when those called for a "vaccine passport" to enter public places... look at us now... This book has a lot of good content, but it's not good as in make you feel happy go lucky about the world around you, it's good in the information it gets out to better help people realize we are not in a "utopia" in America and there are people willing to do the worst to you over the smallest things. First they came for... then they came for... then they came for me and there was nobody left to speak out. Never has the authority of government shrank or not found a way to give itself more power. This book is a bit optimistic about the future, but history says otherwise. Still a great book, definitely can help normies realize what they allow done to others can be done to them. Proxy force is still force. You make the bed you sleep in. Read the book.

Argues against himself

He claims to stand up for the individual to keep the fruits of their labor and personal freedom but also want universal healthcare in the introduction. He points out singular issues and tries to broad stroke it into a trend. No thank you.

Very instructive.

This book shows clearly the injustices that are happening right in plain sight.
We must be vigilant of our freedoms or we will soon lose them.
