Visited by FBI this morning

Unread postby oowolf » Tue 10 Jun 2008, 16:33:19

2 spooks and 2 county deputies "interviewed" me this morning concerning my "freeway blogging" activities. As some of you know I've been arrested twice for putting up anti-bush (and his war criminal gang) signs. It is now a dead certainty that I'm on the Ministry of Homeland Security's "maincore" list. Slated for roundup to the nearest Halliburton concentration camp.
Let me tell you something; the FBI is very much aware of this website. Actually they were very nice guys to talk to. They appeared to be quite aware of the nearness of some calamity and listened quietly while I ranted on--apparently trying to determine if I really am dangerous. I had to promise not to put any more signs up after it was made VERY CLEAR that there would be unpleasant consequences if I did not.
This is the state of this nation folks.

Do you really think the FBI is going to send him to GITMO for littering on the freeway?

Most people with an IQ above 70 can't tolerate the Bushies either. FBI were just doing their job, but likely sympathize with you. Most military...same. If there comes a day where people are rounded up for criticizing neocons, the neocons are going to have to pick from a pool of the most obnoxiously stupid people in the world, to do the job. They may even have to import them from other countries.

I can just see it. You have two earnest pro-necon agents show up at your door to question you. You make sure you have a deep crust pizza handy, and Nascar races playing on television. Get them seated, then offer them a beer. They'll pretty much forget what they came to question you about.

You think any of us would know about it if they did?

And no I don't think that Plantagenet. I was being hyperbolic.

I've got to say though, there were a couple of helicopters flying low around my house the other day. Sounded like one landed nearby. It occurred to me to wonder if it was going to followed by a bunch of ninjas deciding to no-knock my house.

It is disturbing to have 4 armed men on your front porch inquiring if "further measures" need be taken.

"Freeway blogging" is simply placing signs on public property--usually overpasses, where they will be seen by as many people as possible in the short time before thay are torn down.

i've seen pictures labelled "freeway blogger". any of yours ?

why do you get arrested ? are there laws saying you can't attach signs to freeway overpasses ?

the only way we could know if you've been rounded up is if you make a routine where you post at least once a month or whatever.

what did the FBI say about PO.com ?

How is that different from littering?

We don't allow McDonalds or IBM or politicians like McCain or Obama to tape up advertisements on the freeway, and in its majesty the Congress has decided the same law against littering on freeways applies to you and your political signs.

Yes, it's apparently very irritating to the zombie establishment when an individual dares to advertise personal opinions. How dare them!!!!

Simply amazing what they waste time on. There's an overpass near Ft. Lewis that they absolutely plaster with Support Our Troops swag. They gotta send four cops to your house to harangue you about a banner? Be careful with the FBI's. They may be polite, but they are cold ruthless guys.

Disconcerting, although I doubt anyone can really say they're surprised about this. There can be a fine line between exercising your freedom of speech and "inciting a riot," "inducing the comission of a crime," or "encouraging sudicious acts." Dark times we live in that we have to be aware of those lines.

I guess we could just start calling the FBI and asking what is and isn't ok to discuss ;)

You are welcome to protest the "zombie establishment' and advertise your personal opinions, but I suggest you find a way to do it that doesn't involve littering.

A family of a friend of mine found out recently the fate of their long-lost uncle/brother/father.
Apparently he was arrested in Siberia in 1939 and was executed 3 month later in Kamchatka (thats Siberia for Siberians), according to the records. He was 20yo, worked as a carpenter/repairman in a high-school or something. Had a daughter.
Same records, in the line " Charged with" indicated "No charges"
(обвинение не предьявлено )

You think that can't happen here? Land of the free, home of the brave or something like that?

Actually, Kamchatka is MUCH NICER then Siberia. I've been to both places.

Of course bad things could happen in the USA if totalitarians of the right or left took over the government and destroyed our democracy.

However, I think Mr. oowolf can safely end his freeway littering campaign without causing a communist takeover.

Yeah, because of course the extreme left is so tolerant of people speaking out against them..... :roll:

Please keep your logic and level headed thinking out of this thread. Its such a shame to ruin a good emotional rant and tinfoil theories with a few bits of logic.

I'm pretty sure they don't generally send out the FBI to investigate littering.
