The computer guy didn't even have to ask me for my password and started browsing through all my files. When I asked what they were looking for, he answered "Why, are you afraid we will find something...". Then got more civil and said they are searching for any electronic money transfers.

Now why did much of the Media fail to report that???????? (duh, they have an agenda)

Barry

Bingo... the current lot in power and their loving media have pledged to never let a crisis fail to be exploited and used to further their conquest of our freedoms!


One should fact check those sick e-mails and even sicker u-tubes.

Any one who would take this tragedy and use it to create really disgusting conspiracy stories is really, really sick. And they play to the sheep who don't check out this stuff, but just accept it as fact.

So you believe that all of the different law enforcement agencies are not telling the truth --- along with the coroner, morticians, etc.?

The biggest problem with most conspiracy theories is that they involve way too many people; all who somehow are brought together to tell the same "lies" and cover-up stories. It didn't happen.

Real sickos created this conspiracy theory to try and convince more people that Obama is out to destroy America, which is more conspiracy sh*t, and it is really sad for the parents and relatives of those who were murdered. :no:

Whine, Whine, Whine


It has ALWAYS been the case (at least in my lifetime) that the Authorities have the legal right to inspect ANYTHING on your person and vehicle when you are entering from a foreign country.

Including ANY paperwork you might have in your vehicle, luggage, briefcase, WHATEVER.

Given that all sorts of illegal materials can be stored digitally, WHY would ANYONE expect that media to be exempt ?

Other than those possessing said illegal materials, that is ?

United states customs is not the only immigration officers that want to look at your notebook, Canadian immigration is 10x's worse and more rude and easily bypassed because they are rocks with lips.

I agree that we all need to verify the things that we read on the internet and not just accept them blindly as truth. As a scientist I was trained to question all "facts" before accepting them.
However, I totally disagree with using Snopes to fact check. That site is run and controlled by a husband and wife who clearly have a bias.
A better place to start is:

http://www.factcheck.org/

At least this is a nonpartisan group with no agenda to forward.

C'mon you guys....Give DK a break. It's not fair to have a battle of wits with someone who is disarmed.

He is so unhappy that his dream of free enterprise (watering someone's lawn) has fallen apart, that his victim-stance and free time leads him to hang with the rest of the bitter, selfish, dis-enfranchised.
