We're being watched

I know this is no surprise but they're finally admitting that they are monitoring"social Networks".I'm sure that includes forums.

the link at the bottom of the article takes you to the actual document.

They are just now admitting it, probably been doing it for years. And to think, we helped learn how to break down and clean their guns.

I know what your saying. I figured I signed for 98% of the guns I own so they already know what I have.

Just because I don't care for the present resident of the white house doesn't make me a bad person. I have not said anything here that I wouldn't say anywhere else, including DC. I have a right to my opinion, and a right to express it. I obey the law, and served the country, and right now I'm concerned about the direction some folks are going with it. Period.

This really is'nt news. I posted a Thread 2 years ago about a Cyber center being built around the Shreveport-Bossier, La. area.
I'm sure by now it's up and running. I might add 2 centers were proposed.

To the nether regions with the Alphabet Soup Agencies. As long as we aren't making stupid threats against any of the PTB, it's still a Free Country with Freedom of Speech.
On another forum, a couple guys with the know-how have checked the backtrail of some lurking 'visitors' and found glaring evidence that it's the Alphabet guys. Hey, they can watch us. Maybe a newbie among them might get interested in a topic of conversation and join in......

All I've got to say on the matter is.....

John has a red mustache.......(repeat).

The chair is against the wall........(repeat).

For those who don't watch movies, those are supposed to be codes sent over the radio. I think it was in the movie Red Dawn.

Sorry, I'm trying to be funny.

Geez, this has been going on for years but now it's official.
Groan!

John has a red mustache and he is sitting in the chair against the wall.

Figures. Al Gore probably rigged it for monitoring when he invented the Internet. Darn those tricky politicians!

Yeah, it's the folks trying to get the bad guys, that are always in the news, but that's just smoke and mirrors. The guys who watch us, do it with the permission of guess who? Those people we put in office, who decided they are smarter than us. They need to keep their eyes on the little people, lest we get restless! LOL! All they're ever going to get from me is smart comments about whoever is presently sinking the ship of state! And we know who I'm talking about at present, don't we? LMAO!!!

Well then, don't be rude. Say hello to the guys watching us. Howdy, All! They're just normal Joes, just like everyone else.

They should be proud to visit our site and be among such patriots. Nothing in here but law-abiding, freedom-loving folks, including many veterans and heroes from other walks of life.

I am happy to report that there's nothing significant to report in here. I'm sure there are any number of us that would make the call if there was.

Would you care to try The Longest Day? And it's "John has a long mustache." They are/were code phrases directed to units of the French Resistance. To all units, most of the phrases would be meaningless. However, a particular phrase in the gibberish would tell your unit to go into action and perform whatever actions had been assigned in support of the D-Day invasion. Resistance cells knew only what they were supposed to do when they got The Word, not what other cells were tasked for. They knew only their code phrase, not those of other units.

The two phrases all the Resistance cells knew were these:

"The long sobs of the violins of autumn"
and
"Wounds my heart with a monotonous languor,"
in French, of course. They are two lines from the French poet Verlain.

The first phrase was a "heads up" message, warning the Resistance that the invasion would happen very soon, so perk up your ears and listen for the second phrase. The second phrase meant that the invasion would come within 24 hours of the phrase's being broadcast. German intelligence had discovered this, but Intelligence couldn't get General Headquarters to believe them. If they had, it's possible the invasion could have failed, especially if the German armor had been released to local control instead of requiring an order from Hitler himself before they could go into action.
