ABC NEWS--The U.S. government “kill[s] people based on metadata,” but it doesn’t do that with the trove of information collected on American communications, according to former head of the National Security Agency Gen. Michael Hayden.

Hayden made the remark after saying he agreed with the idea that metadata – the information collected by the NSA about phone calls and other communications that does not include content – can tell the government “everything” about anyone it’s targeting for surveillance, often making the actual content of the communication unnecessary.

“[That] description… is absolutely correct. We kill people based on metadata. But that’s not what we do with this metadata,” said Hayden, apparently referring to domestic metadata collection. “It’s really important to understand the program in its entirety. Not the potentiality of the program, but how the program is actually conducted.

WB7: Not the potentiality? Of course not. They're turdworthy. Who would even consider such a thing.

Given the number of headlines in just 2014, it would appear as if the US govenment and its police forces and its 'spooks' kill people even without needing Metadata -- in fact, the only thing getting killed faster than people are the rights and protections that previously existed in the Constitution...
