DOJ Dot-Narc

GigsVT writes: "Wired has a story about how the DOJ wants to "[Target] five types of people [on the internet], including previous drug offenders, legalization advocates, anarchists and people promoting 'an expanded freedom of expression' that pushes the boundaries of the First Amendment.""

Sleepless nights

[george399]

This should be a wake up call to every person with a brain in their head. The idea that I have to pay taxes, in order to pay people to annoy & arrest decent citizens sure makes it hard to sleep at night.

Sometimes I wish I was an American so I could (pretend to) make my vote count, and get rid of this 2nd wave of Reefer Madness. (Don't get me started on the ridiculous amount of resources wasted on marijuana enforcement).

Now I guess I just wait until the FBI text scanner picks up the word marijuana in my post, eh?

Anarchists...

[mjed]

First of all, the DOJ (or for that matter, any government orginazation), has no right whatsoever to target (and presumably arrest) anarchists. As long as said anarchists have not committed a criminal offense, they are free to believe whatever they choose. This is the same as targeting Jews because they don't believe in Jesus. Only in America can basic civil rights be infringed upon with nary a peep from the public.
