+1My issue with the statement is that the "them" that you are referring to is someone's husband or wife, daughter, uncle, etc. None of the ones you refer to as "them" have one ounce of control over the system you appear to hate so much.
Basically you imply that you see nothing wrong with someone going into the Social Security office and "shooting" the place up. You might if one of your family members worked there or one of your family members was there when it happened maybe?
As far as .Gov spy or anti at this point it wont help if you were wearing the tinfoil hat under the Faraday cage. It can't be to hard to register, list your posts and see when you were talked to RE: OC vs. CC on school property, where and what court your case was assigned to, etc.
Furthermore to imply that "they" don't care about your rights, safety or country is just asinine. Who is they? How many people make up this "they" social group? Is there a median income cutoff? Seriously who is the "they" that you refer to?

Its hard for me to just bite my tongue just because some .gov spy or anti might be watching. They dont care about my rights, safety, or country, therefore I care little if they are offended, called out, put on the spot, reminded of truth and so on.
Me too.
Freedom of speech.
If someone wants to discuss committing a crime on the Internet then so be it.
We are all responsible for our actions, words are just words until acted upon.
Freedom of expression is just as important as our other rights.
I can't be so hypocritical that I support controlling speech and then say there should be no infringement on the 2nd Amd. We are free or we are not.
Yes of course, but that's his/her responsibility and doesn't have anything to do with his/her freedom to spout such things. We are free to make assumptions on that persons credibility, and mental stability by what they say and do.Venator wrote:

But when you contently either talk about shooting someone or committing numerous felony's it does make one think about the mental stability of said person.
I have no misconceptions. The police know exactly who I am, and I have no problem with that. I am not a criminal, nor am I otherwise a problem for them. I appreciate most of what they do, and for the most part how they do it.What rubs me the wrong way, is when they watch the communications of the citizenry in hopes to catch them doing or saying something thats politically incorrect, or hoping to catch them in some grey area or technicality. Or profiling people or constructing some watch list. I know what freedom isnt, and when you have to watch what you say, because big bother may be eavesdropping, it isnt freedom.
