Sure it's being monitored - by the moderators!
No, seriously, I used to worry about that also in these type of discussion boards. But, when you think about it, it would take so much more manpower
than must be humanly possible to monitor every single politaly opinionated site. I mean, I don't even know how the mods keep up so well with our own
posts.
I'm sure they (government officials) are monitoring some sites, but they would probably be more like "hate" sites, where direct threats and real
plans to assasinate the president are being discussed. We don't really make threats on him here at all. A few bashing jokes, but, I don't think
they're worried about that. Also, if they have enough manpower, they would, I'm sure put priority on seeing the real terrorist sites, and doing all
they can to figure out thier plans against the U.S., they have any.
The only other kind that they might watch, would be maybe web sites where plans are being made to smuggle large amounts of drugs into the country.
So, I think that we're relatively safe here. It's unlikely that they really care to hear our stuff at all.
