Homeland Security, should not exist. Existence of it, is sign of problem.

Nor should Obama's Brown Shirts!!! Are you aware of the FEMA Corps? They just graduated a couple hundred. It's an offshoot of Obama's AMericorps.

Seriously, google Fema Corps!!!

But is there not a need to protect us from domestic problems

Have a happy 1984.

Well, with sites like wikileaks exposing criminals of the highest order, I guess those guys are getting paranoid about everybody.

I have a piece of tape over my laptop camera. Not that I'm paranoid.

I'm currently shopping for multi-fuel hiking stoves. Even my emails have adverts popping up all over the place. Where is the privacy law protecting us on the www?

I phukkin' hate it.

What should have been the ultimate tool of education for the masses has been hijacked and hoodwinked into yet another marketing tool of the 1%.

I read an article about the Indo invasion of Papua New Guinea the other week, and next thing there's this notification on bookface that I've been looking at vintage porno.

Shitheads are spoiling a perfectly good resource for greed. Sounds familiar.

The Internet was just for education, until the Eternal September. Which is when all of you guys showed up.

[-] 1 points by Builder (4202) 11 years ago

Ever heard of What Pisses You Off? It was a usenet offshoot that I helped to moderate. I've been on this mofo for so long, there's shiny patches on both wrists from keyboarding.

It seems a little hard to believe that a netizen from those days would fantasize about a "privacy law protecting us on the www". But I'll have to take your word for it.

[-] 1 points by Builder (4202) 11 years ago

Good call. It was proxies and militant attacks back then.

We should all be allowed to at least have our emails to ourselves. You agree?

[-] 1 points by TechJunkie (3029) from Miami Beach, FL 11 years ago

If you take your own steps to encrypt your emails, then sure. But anybody who understands how RFC 821 (and its descendants) work would not suggest protecting privacy through legislation instead of technology.

If you really were around before the Eternal September then you have to remember the Clipper Chip. Which is the specific reason why I registered as a Republican back then, in college.

If this is your creation, nice job at creating somethig that aims to be the unfacebook.

It would be excellent if we could orchestrate a mass migration.

Need a hell-heavy server base.

When I was growing up and there were troubles in other lands and I'd see on the TV the police brutalizing their own people I used to wonder if our police were different. I figured that our police were just regular people and that they were raised and educated to understand and respect the constitution. I guess I was wrong.

The cops are the same deformed, sick personalities the world over. In Brazil they shoot homeless boys and girls like they were feral dogs. In Thailand they routinely kill anyone who runs from them. What if someone makes a rolling stop at a stop sign, a block later sees a police car behind them, panics that they are going to be killed and takes off? The cop takes off after them and they are killed, even if their wife and kids are in the car. In Bahrain & Saudi Arabia cops have been videoed accompanying minor 13th century princelings and just standing by while the princeling breaks bones, tortures and/or kills on a whim. Here in NY, they kill distraught mentally ill people, quite often.

Here in the U.S. the police should be screened for psychopathic personalities. Our military screens recruits, why not the police?

Without the presence of actual psychopaths the disturbed side-with-power-worms/bully boys would deflate like Hugh Hefner without viagra.

When I would go down to Zuccotti during the occupation (which wasn't often enough) I would go around talking to cops. Often asking them to 'obey to the minimum.' And often getting a positive response. Yet none of them tipped us off and since then they've stood shoulder to shoulder with the white shirts.

We need to find a way to drive a wedge between the sickos and the normal & patriotic regular people cops.

It's the psychology of humans....human nature....i find it incredibly interesting. I was in a frat in college and remember people in my pledge class getting torn apart by members of the frat during the pledging process....i remember these people in my pledge class saying they could never do this to future pledges....surprisingly many that said that were among the worst offenders to future pledge classes...the very one's who got ripped apart the most. Human nature doesn't change...no matter where you grow up...group think.....mass psychology...going with the flow....it's just how people are. Most people are generally not educated as well, so history that happened just a decade or two ago is completely forgotten....and so are its lessons.

[-] 1 points by DanielBarton (1345) 11 years ago

Funny how the Left continues to support the State. In fact, that is their religion, their reason for being. Why is that?

[-] 1 points by nomdeguerre (1775) from Brooklyn, NY 11 years ago

The State is not the infection, the State has been infected (credits to the forgotten author). The State is supposed to be We The People, we need to take it back.
