FBI Investigates Open Records Request

GrooveMoose writes "A university student at the University of Texas makes an open records request for information on the underground tunnel system at the school. A few months later the FBI and Secret Service come knocking on his door to see if he's a terrorist. He's still under investigation by the federal government regarding a completely open request."

    You are truly out of your mind. Open your eyes, and read what you wrote. This should be modded as funny, because you can't possibly be serious.
    You are blaming US for 9/11. Last I heard it wasn't Christian/Western Black and White people who flew airplanes into buildings killing over 3000 innocent people, it was those wonderfully open minded, tolerant, and loving Islamists.
    You speak of the torture of the Iraqi prisoners, well, you are right there at least, it was horrible and un-called for, where were you speaking out when the American civilian contractors, guarding a food caravan into Fallujah, were captured, killed, torn apart, burned, dragged through the streets, and hung from a bridge. Oh, sorry, that was done by those happy, wonderful peace loving Islamists again, so that's OK.
    At least when we screw up, we admit it. We, unlike almost every other country in the world, air our dirty laundry for everyone to see. We apologized for the torture, because apologizing was the right thing to do, and because what happened was abhorrent. No one apologized for the desecration of the Americans in Fallujah, or the mistreatment or OUR prisoners, but you know what, we hold ourselves to a higher standard. Don't you dare judge all of America by the actions of a few twisted soldiers, isn't that exactly what you are whining about in your post? Our soldiers will be brought to justice.
    If we are so damn bad here, then get the hell out and go somewhere better, in fact you can email me and I'll pay for the ticket.
