engage in COINTELPRO of any kind, anytime, anywhere.
I'm relatively new to the site and was just wondering if SkepticOverlord could
come off the fence and just tell it like it is! I sense a bit
of uncertainty in your denial! HeHeHeHe!!!! (smilies not working!) :-(
I'm sure that this site will be scrutinised by government in some shape or form, even just to get the feel of what the skeptics among the online
community are thinking on controversial issues; I'd be shocked if they didn't.
But I think this is outwith the control of the facilitators of this great site; and should the government come knocking you can't shut the door in
their face. Can you? We have to expect that what we do online is open to scrutiny by a number of agencies and for them to attempt to control certain
issues and sway opinion.
The question I ask myself is whether the facilitators are willing participants in COINTELPRO! The obvious answer for me is no, and besides why would
the government set up a site at considerable cost when they can eavesdrop for a fraction of that cost.
Keep on keeping on! I'm here for the long haul and enjoying every minute.
Best Wishes
