AC = Domestic Terrorists?

Miang writes "A video from a recent FOX 11 (Los Angeles) newscast has surfaced on YouTube. In the segment, reporter Phil Shuman investigates so-called "Hacker Gangs" comprised entirely of anonymous users. The segment, which focuses mainly on users at 4chan, 7chan, and 420chan, seems to confuse /b/ raids and motivational poster templates with a genuine threat to the American public. For added FUD, the FOX team inserted an unrelated video of a van blowing up — twice! Presumably, one is intended to equate anonymous posting with domestic terror. The story and video can be found on the local FOX website, so it does not appear to be simply a clever parody." Cringe as you watch this video explain terms like 'LULZ' and show inspirational poster parodies as evidence of the evils of this terrifying "Group".

    Dont you people get it!?! this "Anonymous Gang" are nothing more than complete basement dwellers with little to no self-esteem what so ever,who probably get their ass kicked by nearly every person they have ever came across, who have so much time on their hands that they harass innocent people to cover-up their own (severe IMO)in-securities To the fat kid that got dumbed: If your not smart enough to know that your not logging in to an official myspace site you deserve to be hacked. And if that stupid bitch dumped you over that, she wasnt worth trying to fuck in the first place.

    I would reiterate that while the source is Ann Coulter, she is citing a work by Dr. John Lott.
