The FBI's Newest Tool — Google Images

lee317 writes "The FBI recently used a photograph of Spanish politician Gaspar Llamazares as an example of what Osama Bin Laden might look like today. According to Reuters, Special Agent Jason Pack said a forensic artist had been unable to find suitable features from the FBI's database of photographs and used a picture from the Internet instead. That photo turned out to be one of Llamazares, who apparently looks strikingly similar to what the FBI thinks Bin Laden would look like with a few extra years on him. 'I am stupefied the FBI has used my photo — but it could have been anyone's — to compose a picture of a terrorist. It affects my honor, my own image and also the security of all us,' Llamazares said."

    With capitalism you can use collective bargaining, what's the equivalent for the citizens in a communist society? Considering most communist societies don't allow their citizens to arm themselves.

    What exactly does that have to do with the question I posed? Communism has been directly responsible for the deaths of 100 million people, yet this communist is worried about individual rights?

    Instead of making a comment to defend communism or correct my misunderstanding, you make a snide comment on my nationality. Kinda sad really.
