It's pretty sad what this Country is coming to.....

If this artical doesn't scare you, it should! It's definatly messed up. I mean, has it really come to the point where reading in public can bring the F.B.I down on your heels??

it seems like a dark day when an American citizen regards reading as a threat, and downright pitch-black when the federal government agrees.

Tell me what you think!

I heard about that in the move Se7en. A very good movie.

figure out the article was Hal Crowther's "Weapons of Mass Stupidity" from the Weekly Planet, a free independent out of Tampa.

I read the same article (I live near Tampa),

Damn, now who's that at the door?

Big deal....

They were just following up. Hell, if they had done that for some of the 9/11 tips, it would have never happened. Now, if he had been arrested or something.... He cooperated, and he'll never see them again, and he has a good story to tell his friends....

Yeah I read it. *grins* But I agree. If they had done that before 9-11 it wouldn't have happened. They already had some tip offs. They should have acted.

Unless they wanted it to happen.

All I can add to this is: Get in line.....a whole lot more people saying and feeling as you do......
Tissues will be handed out as required......
Please stay in line for your own safety and convenience...

Thank you for your cooperation.

Which is seeming more and more appearant. I mean, there is way to much going toward the fact that they DID want it to happen that DIDNOT want it to happen.

I suppose it's possible that they did. But how can people want so many people to die! Maybe they didn't care, as long as they could start a war...

Oh, gosh, after the first insinuation, I am afraid I'd would've been put on the FBI's "jackass citizen" list. The morons can't even arrest you in their own office if the building isn't properly seated federal territory. Right wrong or indifferent in their reason for inverstigation, there's something about authority that has started to chap my skinny-white arse.
No, I know what it is. It is the lack of understanding of the constitution, both on the part of the law enforcement as well as the citizenry.

Why should it bother them? They're killing Iraqis, and they weren't even involved. Murder is murder. I don't see how nationality would matter much to a murderer. Americans, Iraqis, they're all just casualties.

Selling freedom for something as trivial as a false sense of security, is what bothers me. Americans are being fooled into relinquishing their freedom with threats of insecurity and danger. Remind me again...who are the terrorists?

That's something I'd like to know, we go in there we kill them, restlessly, all because they decide to kick out the weapon inspectors, hell if I ran a country I wouldn't want other countries sticking there noses in my country's buisness! And we didn't evan find wmd! so what was the point......
