(62,325 posts)often here you wonder how anyone would still try to use it. Being Gay and unable to marry his partner was not a bogus claim. THAT is why he left.
He has been back here, fairly recently I believe, and was greeted warmly wherever he went.
I'm sure the Big Banks and the MIC and Torturers were not happy to see him here, and he cleverly anticipated a possible attempt to arrest him very publicly, making it difficult to do if they had any intention of doing so.
Don't forget HB Gary was bidding on a contract to smear anyone, mostly Left organizations, who were writing about BOA corruption. They included Greenwald in a possible smear campaign.
He was just a blogger at the time and was very surprised when he learned through Anonymous leaks, that he was a target of these corrupt criminals.
So he knows what they are capable of. And he took the precaution of publicly stating they might go after him when he arrived, as they after Whistle Blowers.
