The FBI is advocating surveillance on ordinary citizens. http://www.casperstartribune.net/articles/2005/11/06/news/a0ea6b2e048e9895872570b100722d7c.txt
Relax Laser, they're just trying to track down carriers of bird flu. That should put your mind at ease.
What is so interesting about "ordinary citizens" that government agents would want to waste their time observing them? Watching paint dry was too exciting? I'm reminded of all the people with paranoid delusions, the people that are convinced that the CIA has hidden "machines" under their floor to read their minds. You would think that people like these would welcome evidence that the mysterious machines didn't exist. You would expect them to be very relieved. But typically they strongly resist the suggestion. They want the threatening machines to be there. Why? Well, if the CIA has an elaborate program to watch them, then they must be significant enough to be watched. They aren't just obscure nobodies, trapped in a life that seems pointless. Instead they are the focus of elaborate secret mechanations by the powerful forces who really control appearances. It's a grasping for meaning and significance, I guess.
Re: Re: FBI Surveillance on Ordinary Americans I recommend the Aluminum Foil Deflector Beanie. The FBI is welcome to keep tabs on me whenever they want. They'd be bored to tears.
LOL.....Bruce Only you would know this works....Just kidding Pretty good, I didn't know any website like that existed.
Re: Re: FBI Surveillance on Ordinary Americans Hmm. Okay... I see what you're saying. So... then... um... this metal box that's all riveted shut that I found in my crawlspace a while back -- the one with the little yellow sticker on it that says "If found call (703) 482-0623" -- I should just like... what... not worry about it, then... right?
Re: Re: Re: Re: FBI Surveillance on Ordinary Americans Whew! That's a relief. I worried it was there for my sense of meaning and significance.
Re: Re: Re: FBI Surveillance on Ordinary Americans You didn't by chance...buy your house from someone named Gacey, did you?
Re: Re: Re: Re: FBI Surveillance on Ordinary Americans The box is a lot smaller than that. (I'll wait...) Actually, John Wayne Gacey's house was bulldozed, and even the earth beneath it (wherein the bodies were buried) was taken away. I doubt that even a CIA-planted device could have withstood something like that.
This is a wee bit troublesome, folks ...... Who will spy on the spy who illegally spies on us, mere mortals and common citizens, in this wonderful, big, sometimes bad, often great, land of the free and home of the brave? Credit: washingtonpost.com Checking FBI’s spying: "These reports open a timely window onto the question that animates the debate over the Patriot Act: How responsibly is the government using its spying powers? Though they don't provide a complete answer, the new disclosures are troubling."
