American student finds GPS tracker stuck to car, FBI shows up to reclaim its 'federal property'

You can if you want but I don't want the STD they carry.

yeah their SOCIALLY transmitted disease

An then some. We have no idea what all they have their grubby little hands in.

Don't forget the Federal Reserve!

His Dad was.

That's a totally fatalist view of the situation.

What they're doing is unconstitutional, wrong and utterly useless for national defense purposes.

While it isn't likely that it will change anytime soon, saying there's "nothing" anyone can do is obviously wrong. We could stop it tomorrow if we wanted to, and a lot of progress has been made even with conservative supreme court in getting rid of some of the nastier surveillance crap.

And it is NOT Bin Laden's fault, it's OURS. We were too big of cowards to choose our liberties over our security. We traded in basic legal practice for a false sense of safety.

In case you missed it this is happening under Obamas watch, a Demoncrat for your information. Additionally we have increased surveilance of cell phones and posts on "current" regarding intercept of e-mails. Obama also increased the Afgan force by 30k people. The invasion of privacy is happening NOW under OBAMA.

So, Paratus, maybe it is the office of the Presidency or the government itself that is the problem, if we have Obama doing these same things Bush did.

Bingo on the government itself. When Bush was in office the howls and outcrys about the "destruction of our rights" were legion. My post was a comment to grandavi about how he should use some intellectual honesty in saying the "invasion of privacy is Bush, and Bush......" etc. I don't see the thought processess in downthumbing what I said. It is the truth. I guess the truth bothers the Obama supporters.
Don't forget that governments have powers. It is the people who have rights. A government that destroys, or attempts to destroy these rights is not better because it is Democrat or Republican. Your rights are still destroyed. It is like being a little bit pregnant. You either are or you aren't. I beat up on Obama and company a lot here. That is because I perceive, along with a lot of other people, that he is a very grave danger to our country. If Obama were a republican I would feel the same way. Obama is not a threat to us because he is a Democrat. He is a Democrat who happens to be a threat to us. Regretably his desire to exert control over the people is not limited to just him or just his party. If it were things would be a lot easier. If the Republicans take the HOuse/Senate in November they will require watching just as much as the Democrats do now.

Cynical but true.

Maybe when China finally calls in our tab it'll be the Chinese and Atheism/Buddhism next.

well hell, where do you think we get the parts for your computer? LOL..afghanistan holds the richest source of minerals that is vital in making batteries for phones and laptops...I am sure you are willing to sacrifice the finer things in your life to secure peace worldwide..do you?..as long as we are WILLING to fork out the dollars to pay for corporate goods and services..there will always be war......(something to think about)

our consumer hunger will assure that

That sounds positively LIBERAL, funny that you're aware of that and yet hate us so much.

Although until China's citizens can start some consuming of their own, their economy is still reliant on our consumption of their goods. They won't call it in until they know they can make it without us.

Afghanistan has lots of lithium, however no one is actively mining it. The country is too unstable and no corporation, American or will be setting up shop there in the foreseeable future.

Also the Native Americans, African Americans, the Japanese and now people of the Islamic faith.. and yes in time people will forget about this but by then people will have found another culture to complain about.

Don't forget the gays, but then, their struggle has been eternal so far.

ACLU is good in defending "gangsters" and "dope dealers" but you cannot fuck with the federal government...

shit they might even have a tracking devices on all ACLU members LOL..

by the way..these federal agents are part of a bigger organization that will be regulating your healthcare..

The ACLU defends EVERYONE, they even defended Rush Limbaugh.

They fight for constitutional rights. I know it pisses conservatives off but EVERYONE, not just the people you like, deserves their rights.

And if you can't make a distinction between INDIVIDUAL FBI agents being dicks and separate, larger Federal programs, you're totally clueless.

HHS is not the FBI just because it's Federal.

Gangsters and dope dealers. Yeah, must be why they defended Limbaugh's right to medical privacy when he was sending his housekeeper out to score Oxycontin for him.

that or there's not any good reason.

2 747s ramming the WTC kinda gave them the reason....

sure, let's just wipe our ass with the constitution while we're at it and then throw in some religious laws too? how does that sound? oh and maybe no locks on doors anymore, and why do they keep letting people say whatever they want again, anyway?

if we make all of those changes, the terrorists ( whether you believe it was al queada or the government) win. so, no the damn towers coming down shouldn't change a fucking thing. warrant-less surveillance is ILLEGAL. there's no reason to do it because if someone is suspicious enough to deem that kind of thing necessary, i'm betting dollars to pesos you could probably get it done through regular legal channels.

I'm sorry for your experience, but thank you for sharing. People need to be made constantly aware of the reality of this power. I'm sick of people dismissing unjust encounters with the law, such as yours, as a rarity. It's blatantly rampant.

i thought this was all going to 'CHANGE"?

You are so dumb

Well it took Bush 8 years to fuck the country up. Can't change that in less than two.

thanks, people do need to speak up. plenty of people I know have had similar encounters.

They were trying to get me through an x-ray without even asking me if I was pregnant. But then maybe by the way they accused me of being a meth addict (which I am NOT), they probably figured if I were to miscarry it would just be one less meth baby.
(yes, they actually asked me "Are you a meth addict?" during interrogation on the basis that I'm thinner than I look in my passport picture),

Road Kill It's whats for Dinner.

lol

Take the bumpy dirt road and put the pedal to the metal!

then stick in in reverse and run it over again..make sure its dead LOL

Oh Snap!

Return him.

No return no deposit

Waterboard him?

lol way to get pissed about a nice gesture.

I honestly don't know the reasoning you used to segue from a good gesture, like sending aid to Haiti, to drone attacks in Pakistan. They have nothing to do with one another. Also Pakistan already gets billions of dollars in US aid.

I'm with you on this one. The worst was the Bush/Clinton TV commercial asking for aid to be sent to the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund. Bloody Hypocrites.

They are no different, to some its red and blue, to me they are both gray

LOL.liberal hollywood is good at making things smell like roses...

The parties are different; the supporters are different; it's the Government itself that is the problem.

This was very good, Shanklinmike, but I think people voted it down without watching just because of the way they feel about you.

Nice video.

Naa just mail it to the White House. Maybe even put it in a cop car.

True, but the government has been doing this on citizens that haven't done anything or deserved such surveillance.

Yes, but we don't want to make this guy the poster boy for innocent victims of Big Brother, and then find out he makes the Underwear bomber look sane.

Then the Decepticons would of found him!

I would have attached it to a UHAUL truck.

and we know what you do in the shower. You should be ashamed of yourself :)

thats what everybody says when caught. Its not my falt I was framed.

You seem fascinated with airplanes. Could I suggest going to the hobby store and buying a model of one? Then you can make believe your the pilot! Whooosh!

funny you said slave labor..who is crusading illegal immigrant issues??

As if government could keep us safe....

what a joke, the cops never even show up until AFTER a crime has occurred anyways.....remind anyone of 9/11?!?

Then the bureaucrats will fix everything............... yeah, right.........

Actually, under the new extension of the patriot act (that Obama signed) you don't have to be on any list. They can now tag your car, without any reason, while it is sitting in your driveway. The definition of "terrorist supporter" has also been stretched to have a MUCH broader meaning.

You really think that's justice? They're trying to keep people quiet, not protect people. I think it's probably closer to fascist, racial profiling... if history is our guide.

people like you are the reason we have wars

and people like you are the reason hitler was able to take all of europe.

fucking appeaser

Yeah it's OBVIOUSLY that secret sect of Egyptian college student terrorists. I hope the terrorists sneak up to your breakfast cereal every morning just to piss in it.

Fascist? I thought Obama was communist?! I'm confused now...

He never took all of Europe.... and it didn't last long.

And appeasers are not the reason Hitler rose to power....fascists like you are!

He's a fascist Marxist communist revolutionary Yankees Red Sox fan Nazi.

The cops should be psychic and show up before a crime happens

Don't be like Glenn Beck

The FBI and MPAA were listening in on talks to learn more history for National Treasure 3
