MuckRock FOIA Request Releases Christopher Hitchens' FBI Files
v3rgEz writes: Outspoken atheist firebrand Christopher Hitchens was never one for understatement, and apparently the FBI took notice. A Freedom of Information request from investigative news site MuckRock has resulted in the release of his 19-page FBI file, including details such as how his interest in socialism in college sparked heightened monitoring when given a scholarship to come to the United States. Some of the pages had actually been previously released, but were then removed from the FBI's own website a few years ago. Despite the monitoring, Hitchens files have nothing on the hundreds of pages the FBI had on Richard Feynman.
In all fairness, can you imagine the cost to them if they had to turn over the recordings of every one of your phones calls and emails for the last 10+ years? That shit would add up fast, man.
SJW's don't eliminate discrimination. They just expropriate it for themselves.
That's the great thing about living in post-9-11 America, NO ONE is too unimportant to have their phone calls and emails archived. To the NSA, we're ALL special!

I find it amusing that people define what they believe by defining it by what they don't believe. I don't believe in Pink Unicorns, but my beliefs aren't defined by that. I am not APINKUNICORNIAN.
