And your point is? Lil Missy Jul 2013 #3

Ahh, your posting on a politcal site?.... think Jul 2013 #4

And your point is? Lil Missy Jul 2013 #8

Here, said another way Hydra Jul 2013 #11

The claim is the pentagon is spying on political sites. You are posting on a political site. think Jul 2013 #12

I see now. I didn't consider DU "EXTREMIST POLITICAL ACTIVITY". Lil Missy Jul 2013 #13

I don't either. But it's not what we consider extreme that matters think Jul 2013 #15

I've viewed this site from qazplm Jul 2013 #27

So DU is fine even with Occupy discussion but Quaker groups are political extremists? think Jul 2013 #30

If the Quakers can be targeted as an extremist group... think Jul 2013 #16

What you mean is that you dont do anything wrong so you dont care if your government spys rhett o rick Jul 2013 #20

Perhaps those that have never sought to defend their rights think Jul 2013 #36

There have been many times here on this site where EC Jul 2013 #32

The Pentagon should be monitoring DU? I can understand if the FBI has think Jul 2013 #33

We are posting on a PUBLIC SITE EC Jul 2013 #39

And why should that be a concern to the Pentagon? think Jul 2013 #41

No one said that. EC Jul 2013 #42

Yes, They do look at whatever the hell they want . Don't they? think Jul 2013 #43

You feel the same about the Southern Poverty Law Center? EC Jul 2013 #48

Is the SPLC the same entity as the US Military with the same function? think Jul 2013 #53

I'm not going to argue EC Jul 2013 #55

I protested the Gulf war with Quakers in 1990 in Akron Ohio think Jul 2013 #58

Well what law are they breaking? EC Jul 2013 #59

They aren't. Bush changed the laws so that they could. Cool isn't it.... think Jul 2013 #60

Still would not be breaking the law even if Bush hadn't changed the law. EC Jul 2013 #61

Well I'm glad you feel it's good the pentagon is wasting money spying on US citizens think Jul 2013 #62

Is freeperville still up and running? Baitball Blogger Jul 2013 #5

We are told that we have political freedom in the United States. Maedhros Jul 2013 #10

Thank you for adding sanity to this thread.... think Jul 2013 #37

Your qualifier "in a functioning democracy" says it all! Coyotl Jul 2013 #45

Good Citizens don't question the measures taken by the State Maedhros Jul 2013 #47

It is the responsibility of 'Good Citizens' to question the measures taken by the State, and Coyotl Jul 2013 #50

That's pre-9/11 thinking... Maedhros Jul 2013 #51

Agreed, I saw the interview of Amy-Greenwald as more of a clarification, and that is warranted drynberg Jul 2013 #26

this is not the same Marblehead Jul 2013 #29

Glen? Do us a favor gholtron Jul 2013 #28

Telling a journalist to STFU is humorous at best. think Jul 2013 #35

Glen, do us a favor and create some YouTubes of your stuff. Print is sooo yesterday. Coyotl Jul 2013 #46

DUH. EC Jul 2013 #31

You expect the Pentagon to spy on US protestors because it's their job? think Jul 2013 #34

It is not spying EC Jul 2013 #38

Who's job is it to monitor domestic activities? The military or the FBI's? think Jul 2013 #40

Old news again. Coyotl Jul 2013 #44

Yes - the most important thing for a journalist to do Maedhros Jul 2013 #49

Huh? Are you just flaming, or Coyotl Jul 2013 #52

No, I'm serious. Maedhros Jul 2013 #54

Why do you think pointing out that this is old news is criticism of Greenwald? Coyotl Jul 2013 #56

I suppose I misinterpreted your post. Maedhros Jul 2013 #57
