This is my last time to read your blog. You have become paranoid about the federal government and assume the worst, giving no benefit of the doubt. I think you must be a frequent viewer of Fox News.
ReplyDeleteNo, I'm a frequent reader of, among others, the Guardian and Der Spiegel. I don't get my news from TV. See ya.
ReplyDeleteOh, and I also value my freedom and my privacy.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous, what are you afraid of? That someone might investigate you if you use your own name?
ReplyDeleteOh wait, that might be paranoid...
