It turns out they really ARE watching you.
The police are watching you. If you’re the wrong religion, they’ll spy on your every move. If you voice the wrong political opinions they’ll be watching you. According to Mike German, a 16-year veteran with the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigations, this is happening right in the U.S.
Yet another reason to not renew the Patriot Act.
I read this morning that some tea party republicans were joining forces with the democrats to fight this. I thought–yeah right. Since when have the democrats been fighting the patriot act? 2001?
Unfortunately, I think that even if it doesn’t get renewed, that won’t stop the FBI et al. from doing what they want to do. For Your Safety, of course.
For many years, I have had a (humorous?) button that reads, “My FBI file is bigger than your FBI file.”
