NP - From elsewhere

[Ian Livingston]

Please understand Richard, I was not questioning the veracity of the
report, only the integrity of freedom of information on the internet.
Having found anarchist sites blocked when I wanted to research them, I
question censorship here. What remains for me to doubt in the report,
however is the DHS's intentions in buying up this kind of shit. Sure looks
like we're headed into fascist lockdown, but, in the absence of forthright
communication from the responsible agencies, it is only natural for us to
expect the worst from government. After all, the old saw about the only
valid role of government being to oversee its own demise can be
reinterpreted many ways, yes? Being among those who distrust government,
business, and law, even I have to wonder if the governmental paranoia
hasn't more to do with anticipated invasion from without, rather than the
more generally desirable uprising from within.

As to my computer skills, well, I don't mind being a little slow on that
front. I can skin a squirrel, though, which may once again be a valuable
skill in few years' time the way things are going.

"Less than any man have I  excuse for prejudice; and I feel for all creeds
the warm sympathy of one who has come to learn that even the trust in
reason is a precarious faith, and that we are all fragments of darkness
groping for the sun. I know no more about the ultimates than the simplest
urchin in the streets." -- Will Durant
