Hows that assault weapons ban coming for you Mike? Oh wait, thats right. Few weeks later and no one cares.

Freedoms just another word for nothing left to lose.

Metadata is not a phone tap. This is no different that LEO having access to LUDs. Thank god people are over this and we can go back to reading about heart eating rebels in the news.

Probably why he no longer had a clearance. And probably his real motive, which is much less righteous than he claims...

And I'm pretty certain all gov contracts and all gov work must be done in compliance with the constitution.

I know you do not actually believe that. Not saying it should not be that way, just telling the others its not that way and it never will be. Even carnivore was only voluntarily pulled and then put right back up.

Which if you'll recall means it belongs to the people. Our tax dollars not the federal government's. We provide them to the government in order to provide the services that we as people require.

But whatever your military background might be Chuck, surely you remember that DOD reports to the CIC and to whom does he report? The people.

The gov is not coming into your house. If you do not like the policy, stop using the internet. If I wanted I could read every PM and every email notification sent through this server, and the others I manage. CC info, addresses, private messages, photos, FB logins and so on. But I do not. Why? Because who cares. In the 15 year history of VS I think I have read maybe 10 PMs and a hand full of emails and that was to curb abuse that was reported. Using your tax dollar logic, you should go ask for some seat time in a F35

Historically. But as far as I knew, today the backbone is mostly private groups who collect money to provide the service.

Funded with federal tax dollars.

I was starting to wonder what happened to this guy... but then I just assumed they told him that if he didn't go along with the program, he'd get to ride in a special motorcade in Dallas....... in a sweet convertible. :-|

He was a shitty choice for president, thats what happened to him. That said, its not really his fault. He was very green and had not been part of any oversight committees. At the time of his election I held a higher clearance. So its kinda hard to comment on the inner workings of nation security when you have no idea how it works... No idea why anyone who voted for him is surprised how he 180ed on some issues. RE Fudge: 1 word. ARPANET. Remember whos playground you are on.

I'm amazed at how readily you accept the idea of giving up your natural born rights to a government entity who doesn't give a rats ass about you other than ensuring you pay your taxes and don't cause too many problems.

As long as they keep the Chinese out and let me build assault rifles in my back yard I don't give two shits what the government does.

I think this stuff was common knowledge. Everyone knew this stuff was going on. Doesn't really change that its potentially a constitutional violation. Now there's just some evidence.

You know how many secret laws are on the books. Most violate some court ruling and all are classified.

In an era where the government is taking on liberties contrary to the Constitution I want more people willing to speak up rather then fewer. Too many secrets.

Nothing new is going on. This has gone on for years. Did anyone here really think your on-line data was private?

Why is it that people always die in the course of your resolution of a problem Chuck?

He needs to made an example out of. You know another way that has 0% recidivism?

Im all for direct democracy only because it would be funny. I would be madmaxing it up within 18 months if you FB define all policy. They need to round this fucker up and shoot him in the head. Same goes for every congressman who leaked info and that dipshit pvt that was involved with wikileak. Security leaks put personnel in danger period! Intelligence channels should be protected whenever possible.

It makes our democracy a hypocrisy on the world stage. If we are a beacon for freedom, and dictate international policy under the rights of said freedoms, how are we any different than countries we condem and invade when we use the same practices on ourselves and our citizens?

We are a representative democracy

If you called out the US government with illegal activities and had legit proof if it would YOU stay in the country? I would run away

And have an "accident" in Hong Kong? I think not. Again, if you were really proud of what you did, you would own it. Well anyone with a backbone, you Kevin... You would probably end up like David Caradine.

Speaking of whistle blowers, I think the fears expressed by Edward Snowden, someone who lived and worked in the belly of the beast justifies a skeptical response to any claims made by the Obama administration on this question.

If he's so righteous, why is he holed up in a Asian hotel like a rat?

LULZ. Read my post from years ago. I have told you all this before. Worked on some of the systems back when I was still with the gov. It not new and been going on for decades. They have all the information, that does not mean they monitor it. Anyone who thinks anything on the internet is secure or private is a moron.

Point is, your genetics defines race comment is a little simplistic.

HTF do you define race?

The Sun.... HAHAHAHA. Thanks I needed that

Or when the white genes from familial genetic history produces a white child from two black parents.

Pft. Thats just what I tell my black friends when their girlfriends pop out white babies. Its like Loch Ness Monster, Bigfoot, Trayvon Martins innocence... Myth

I'm just waiting for the switch blade to drop on the table in this version of the story. And I believe it will.

Dead men tell no tales.

Genes do not lie. I'm calling race. Maybe poorly defined ambitious term, ie jewish, but still calling it race. Fuck PC and fuck misbehaved "kids". I mean come on.... HS students? GTFO.

I'm only going to respond by saying Jews are not a race and I don't agree with your comment in that respect. That's exactly how Hitler classified the group which was just as wrong then.

Tell that to Tay-Sachs and Harry Ostrer

Another GTFO. WTF does everyone play the race card? And more importantly why should you have to be told more than once no less twice.
