Ah, that's nothing. We have several sweet foods that are frowned upon, just because 100 years ago somebody thought up a name. And they are still squirming about the "new" names these days.
But - about that poor guy Snowdon - he was hired to do what he did. I am sure that those people that hired him knew exactly how he would respond to what he was GIVEN to see, and their puppet did exactly what they expected.
The Americans should forget about Snowdon as soon as possible (the public I mean) (and the newspapers), because they are using that guy as a big cover up for other problems.
Amazing how quick the NSA and the US government are to CLEAR UP that big brother thing to the outside world and how UPFRONT they are in showing how the NSA works, how the big brother thing is ONLY looking at telephone numbers and their connections, fishing for the one connection that makes a critical link.
Rest assured, everything we say and do here in our little community has their attention. Why? Because some of us are US patriots who have laid their lives on the line for the freedom of the rest of the world. Or are at the moment doing so.
And as you all may or may not know, the US government does not trust their own soldiers once they go back into obscurity - nor can they trust anyone who is deployed. It is a sad thing.
The better connected the rest of the world gets, via Internet and all it's possibilities, the more the US government wants to pull the plug on the Internet and make it a dangerous tool.
But don't let that scare you off. Just look at the US government as the idiotic little brother the rest of the world has to suffer - and keep friends with all the normal people.
Don't forget. It was with the help of this community and other Internet friends that one of our own PSC members' life was saved. Think about Jerry Hamilton (Jerryhami) - who was left out in the cold by his own country badly until flags where raised.
So, never mind the criminals and their mouthpieces - just stick together with all the people you know, and we will keep things afloat.
