San Bernardino Sheriff Has Used Stingray Over 300 Times With No Warrant
An anonymous reader writes: After a records request by Ars, the sheriff in San Bernardino County (SBSD) sent an example of a template for a "pen register and trap and trace order" application. The county attorneys claim what they sent was a warrant application template, even though it is not. The application cites no legal authority on which to base the request. "This is astonishing because it suggests the absence of legal authorization (because if there were clear legal authorization you can bet the government would be citing it)," Fred Cate, a law professor at Indiana University, told Ars. "Alternatively, it might suggest that the government just doesn't care about legal authorization. Either interpretation is profoundly troubling," he added. Further documents reveal that the agency has used a Stingray 303 times between January 1, 2014 and May 7, 2015.
This is a beautiful post.
Bloom is explaining how investors view the market. You re-interpret it as if it represents the Obama administration. Nicely done. Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity would be proud of you.
Don't you have FEMA concentration camps to find? Or contrails to track? Or welfare queens who are really prostitutes to bust? Are you finding evidence on the intarwebs that 9/11 was an inside job?
Seriously though, you should read Animal Farm. Here: https://www.marxists.org/subje... Pay attention to how the farm's ideals get re-interpreted.
There are real problems with the Obama presidency. Making shit up keeps everyone from talking about them, helps them and hurts everyone else.
