Amazon 7 #2 January 14, 2007 QuoteThe agency houses an antiterrorist database of intelligence tips and threat reports, known as Talon, which had been collecting information on antiwar planning meetings at churches, libraries and other locations. The Defense Department has since tightened its procedures for what kind of information is allowed into the Talon database, and the counterintelligence office also purged more than 250 incident reports from the database that officials determined should never have been included because they centered on lawful political protests by people opposed to the war in Iraq. So much for freedom of speech.... Nope I guess you dont have to be doing anything wrong after all huh. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As for what the military and CIA have been doing with their letters, yes it's backhanded, and congress should tell them to knock it off. In the meantime, complain to the financial institutions, they don't have to cooperate with requests from CIA or the pentagon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AOL had your "authorization" to begin with, so upon trying to charge you again, they had everything they needed.So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!
