half the kids are against it!

Kyle Bass wants some of that action.
We are the Stasi in your neighborhood, in your neighborhood, in your neighborhoooooooood!
The State is no longer benign!
DaddyO
The Constitution has fallen...and it can't get up
For a long time, libertarians have influenced dissociated youths with their rebellious rhetoric and nihilistic flare, but the tide has turned. Working for the government is finally cool, and this is making libertarians very worried.
you need to take that bonus of yours and go on vacation with motherfucking simon black
Yeah, working for "the Man" and against your own people must be the pinnacle of "cool" !
And then you wonder why others are calling you a retard and m0r0n...
No real, breathing human being can actually think that working for the government is cool.
You are obviously a troll...or an an extraterrestrial.
it was aliens.
LIBERT-ALIENS.
Tim Cook says he plans on melting them so he can....oh wait....
Of course, the snitches need someone to rat out?
Snitches get stitches, Bitchez!
pods
The Feinstein witches
bitch at the snitches
deflecting the fact
it is they it enriches
Not nearly as cool as the "Resistance Kids". Just sayin'
A bill has just been introduced into congress to ban carrier pigeons ...
You're kidding, right?
Where's 'Secret Squirrel' & 'Morocco Mole'?... Rocky?... Bullwinkle?... Boris & Natasha?... Madam "X"?
Why not just give them a copy of Poe's Gold-Bug and tell if they can break it without a computer- they have a .gov job for life and can have more cool iCrap from Uncle Sam than their classmates in the interim?
Boris & Natasha run the government now...
Once again it is important to understand that the false flag attacks of 9/11 paved the way for these ever increasing infringements. This is why the BIG LIE of 9/11 must be exposed, regardless how many years or decades have passed.
False Flag? They friggen found the guy's passport right there in the rubble (of one of the twin towers... not building 7 that came down at free fall pace without having been hit). Anyway, not sure how much more evidence you need than a passport in the middle of the rubble.
For consideration from Jon's site...good points and questions...
Could Snowden be a patsy as part of the bigger agenda and the Great Plan?
.
First, I’m not doubting the documents Ed Snowden has brought forward. I’m not doubting the illegal reach of the NSA in spying on Americans and the world.
But as to how this recent revelation happened, and whether Ed Snowden’s history holds up…I have questions.
Could Snowden have been given extraordinary access to classified info as part of a larger scheme? Could he be a) an honest man and yet b) a guy who was set up to do what he’s doing now?
If b) is true, then Snowden fits the bill perfectly. He wants to do what he’s doing. He isn’t lying about that. He means what he says.
Okay. Let’s look at his history as reported by The Guardian.
.
http://jonrappoport.wordpress.com/2013/06/10/nsa-leaker-are-there-seriou...
The big question is when he got his security clearance. He would have at least got it at the building security guard job. Security clearance + IT skills ~8 years ago in DC would have had you showered with job offers from intelligence community regardless of having a diploma or GED. Once you're in the system, you're set. There are many building security guard jobs in the DC area which anyone with a pulse can get if they know about it and they will get you a security clearance.
Actually, leaving the military because the option was open when he broke his legs makes sense. Through his friends from the military he gets a tip on the building security job. He gets that gets a clearance then somewhere along the way he has IT skills and gets in. The story line actually is very plausible to me and I've worked building security for the main State building in DC.
The only thing that makes any sense right now is that 1) he was profiled as an honest guy, 2) he was given information an honest man would be likely to divulge, 3) "they" wanted this to happen, 4) if he had not divulged they would have simply tried again with someone else having a similar profile and Snowden would have just gone on with his job.
Notice, it is very much possible that Snowden was not even the first to be handed this opportunity. Any number of others might have until now simply ignored the information as business-as-usual-in-America and gone on with their assignments.
"They" wanted a test of the heat of the American people on this subject. They have been doing this for a while now, in countless small ways, turning up the heat until people get used to it and learn to turn a cynical blind eye on it.
This is 100% working for them. They are dancing in the halls right now.
The next "release" will be in about 18 months -- once again some honest joe will get his hands on something unbelievable -- and the American media and citizens will have their worst suspicions confirmed yet again that government are evil fucktards and go back to watching sports where real heros can still be found.
Boiling the frog.
Whatever we have coming now, we richly deserve.
so true
The best way to control the opposition is to create the (controlled) opposition.
Just take a look at some of the revelations over the last 10-15 years about how various different "radical" groups (including several unions) from the 60's and 70's were led or controlled by the CIA and various other intelligence operations. The old tricks are still the best tricks to use.....even when they have been exposed as tricks.
The only way you can successfully lie to a group of people is if they individually and as a group already lie to themselves.
I viewed the lockdown of Boston the same way. Will people even question us declaring martial law over a single criminal on the loose? Regardless of any other misgivings I have over the narrative of the Boston bombings... martial law was clearly a test.
If it was not a deliberate test, then it absolutely became a test defacto.
Who did you say found this miraculous asbestos passport? You have a chain of custody?
Either it's a Sarc.. or it's really really a pathetic statement.
Don't you find it just a little odd that the bodies of the people on that flight were completely incinerated at impact, and they only found bits and pieces of people who were in the building, that that passport was not rendered into its component molecules?
Yes Cog!
.
The truth to 9/11 is way bigger than the event itself...for exposing the truth of that event blows the doors right wide open to EVERYTHING 'conspiracy like.'
World Wars, Titanic, Moon Landing, terrorist attacks, Sandy Hook, documents, scriptures, whatever... Everything would be questioned.
.
The truth about 9/11 questions what the fuck are we exactly doing on this planet...it questions the meaning of life if you really think about it.
Its massive.
Precisely. Recognizing the fundamental lie of 9/11 will force many to question every other fundamental "truth" they accept as correct. This is why 9/11 remains THE litmus test for anyone who claims to be speaking the truth on any other subject. To maintain the lie of 9/11 by not exposing it for what it is means that directly and indirectly you are maintaining all the other lies that form the basis for the BIG LIE.
One cannot proclaim 9/11 to be as it is claimed to be by the authorities even if it is done by omission, by simply not speaking (the truth) about it, and remain credible as a truth speaker. Those who claim they must not expose the 9/11 lie in order to be credible among the general population, thus more able to bring down the system from within or as a "credible" public dissident, are either controlled opposition or useful idiots. <I am speaking directly to you Ron Paul as well as many others.>
Either you speak the truth or you do not. To maintain some lies in order to expose other lies supports the system in its entirety simply because the system maintains its 'credibility' be assuring those caught up in the system that it is self correcting. And that self correcting mechanism is the partial truth speaker. Thus the real rot and decay is never exposed because the population is led to believe all that is exposed is all the rot there is when in fact it is not.
This is a literal question: who knows what actually happened on 9/11 and is actually talking?
I know, but I'm not saying.
One is not required to present an (alternative) explanation of what happened on 9/11 in order to seriously and thoroughly question what happened on 9/11. I fully agree that the general population, including the so called "truth" community, does not know (exactly) what happened on 9/11.
What I do know is that the "official" version cannot withstand a casual review let alone an honest and open minded investigation. What the "official" version does do is give those who wish to believe the official narrative a reason to believe.
<Daddy, tell me another lie so that I may believe it is the truth.>
(just my stupid opinion)
There goes that funny word again to "know." Biblically sexual, legally, God knows what. (Then again, Dr. Strangelove is full of sexual overtones) Actually, legally, it's simply a trier of fact making a decision often on what we call "circumstantial" evidence. The criminal trial lawyer in me says there is an absurd and overwhelming amount of circumstantial evidence that it was an inside job. Much more evidence than a typical case that proves a murder from an angry spouse who can hide most of their actions. THis comes with the nature of the beast doesn't it? YOu can NOT pull this off without affecting physics, cameras, NORAD, Airline shorts, and a million other government and non government systems with the whole world watching. Holmes would tell us to remove all the other possibilities.
HOw many people other than Dick? Who cares at this point. The most important thing I have come to conclude about "my government" is based upon the government's reaction SINCE 911 not the day itself.
All of their behavior SINCE 911 tells me they are pretty much all co-conspirators. If the world can figure this out with very controlled and limited access to information, then they BY GOD know themselves. And if they refuse to do anything or refuse to demand an investigation, then they are accessories after the fact - plain and simple - even under the law.
What does this mean? It means, the government, and it's "laws" are pretty much gone doesn't it? The most heinous mass murder in American history and they immediately ship out the physical evidence and destroy it and errect instead constitutional "punishment" for the rest of us? Actually, they dish out literal murder and unlawful imprisonment for quite a few folks didn't they? Give me a break. What more do we need to know. And their daily behavior since only confirms and reconfirms and reconfirms...
Like the latest news, it is no longer really about three towers falling, its about three branches doing the same.
THUS, I think it is a waste of energy to call for an investigation on such deaf and criminal ears. The remedy, like the problem will need to be much more profound. Only then can we reopen the issue and finally bring some human justice
Well said, and my thoughts also.
The TRUTH is a 3-edged sword, ask any Vorlon...
I actually agree. I do not believe the official story; I would like to know the truth. That is why I asked the question.
I do too. However if I remain too focused on understanding the last lie I will miss how the next one is manufactured......in real time this time.
This was some good reading on the subject.
http://911u.org/Physics/WTCenergySurplus.html
I never thought I'd buy into the 9/11 'truth' business, but seeing events unfold in Syria etc has really opened my eyes. The documentary that changed my mind regarding 9/11 was 'War by Deception' by Ry Dawson. I think he did pretty good work for a young amateur and think he presents the arguments very well and in a logical manner.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pK6VLFdWJ4I
The problem any "truth" documentary has is not so much in explaining the lie, but in challenging the viewer's ideology. Belief and ideology do not require truth and fact in order to survive and flourish. Way too often truth and facts stand in direct contrast to belief and ideology.
You can lead the ideologue to truth but you can't make them drink.

That clip from Goodwill Hunting is just so prescient it is...just...just... MINDBLOWING
I remember when kids spent their time playing baseball and shit.
I used to play with a stick. Any old stick would do.
I used to play with myself, when the wife isn't around I still do.
As long as those kids don't walk around with their pants hanging halfway off their asses, I'm cool with it. Stop wearing PJ bottoms like they're real pants. They're not. Stop calling me "dude" or "man." And don't even get me started on sandals.
In other words, act like you give a shit. If you don't give a shit, then fake it.
That's it. I'm done.
+1 on the sandals part. Also flipflops and Crocs.
(but that's my hangup... sorry for sharing)
Never been to Guam? "Zorries" (flip-flops) are standard there. ..except the last three months I lived there, when I put on footwear only on the day I went to the airport to leave. Miss that place.
I wear flipflops every day and call everyone "diude" or "man" or "friend." Giving a shit is a sentient act borne out of wanting and doing the best for yourself and everyone else. Your clothes and accessories have nothing to do with it.
Your favorite well-dressed motherfuckers in suits sure don't help you fix your tire or move your furniture or water your plants or set up a fresh linux install on your dying computer. Nope that's what the Skateboarders of the world do, and we're fucking proud to be human, to be of help.
So fuck your uppity clothing styles and vernacular. There's plenty of poor, hard working people who would love to have a stranger and friend call them "dude" and it mean something rather than an empty "sir."
Yep.
you relive your childhood yet bring new meaning to the term "dodgeball"
I once was a kid but I don't recall spending that much time shiting.
....and CD...you are SO right. 911 is the elephant in the room here...gotta expose that bitch of a pachyderm
Sorry... It'll never happen... Because exposing that leads straight to the doorstep of what you can't even talk about or attempt to identify on ZH anymore... Go ahead ~ Say it SAY IT [like Professor Turgeson compels you to]...& hit the road Jack...
~~~
IT'S JUST THE WAY IT IS ~ Right Pure Evil?
I'll give it a go... NWO, NSA, CIA, FBI, Zionists, Bildebergers, Tri-Laterals, Luciferairans, Illumintai, Masons, Jesuits, Vatican, Neo-Cons, Neo-Libs and douche bag fascists. the problem you have is that you always boil it down to one particular religion. Boehner, McCain, Graham, Obama are not Jewish and those who are calling their shots are only in name.
Oh right... My bad [I forgot]
~~~
- The 'Bilderbergers', 'Tri-Lats', etc. are just 'LOGOS'... There are no 'people' involved there [what happens is that a bunch of 'stickers', 'armpatches', & printed letterhead get tossed onto seats at a roundtable for their annual meetings & conduct activities by having a seance]...
- The [non] Federal [non] Reserve doesn't have shareholder families... It's just a limestone building that prints money by itself...
- The list of "rogue states" isn't populated by only resource rich countries who don't have a 'Rothschild style' central bank tied to the petrodollar...
- Hell ~ The Rothschilds don't even exist & the Balfour Declaration is just an urban legend...
- It was the "Luciferian Anti-Defamation League" that put pressure on the Tylers in Switzerland because those genius Swss legislators found it prudent to write & codify laws to protect the rights of devil worshippers...
I'm a fucking slow learner...
~~~
Boehner, McCain, Graham, Obama... BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH! Thanks for the laugh... Fucking errand boys... [Why do people hire Mexicans to cut their lawn]?...
Ummm ... wasn't Obama's mother jewish? If so, wouldn't that make Obummer also jewish?
OK...pure evil, so get this.
100+ years ago some English scholar is wandering around the Egyptian desert and spots this sand dune that doesn't look like any he has seen before. He is with Oxford or one of those universities.
It is a 'dump' more than 2,000 years old. Full of all kinds of stuff. They excavate 1,000 boxes of stuff and take it back to England. They have only gone thru a few boxes so far.
So among other stuff are these tniy pieces of scrolls that have been verified by Bible scholars as la-git, and they have been piecing these tiny pieces together. Seems, 666 as EVIL, the number of the beast was transulated WRONG in every bible since the beginning. It actually is 6616.
So go find 6616 and figure out what it is. CODE???????
By the way,this will be in the new bible coming to print later this year as a foot note.
AND....here is a quote the scholars say is la-git from Jesus. " Your Father has given you heaven, it is right before your eyes here on earth, but you don't see it and so you will destroy it" that is a paraphase.
Yeah well you never know what'll happen next...

Last year, from Hollywood, we all LEARNED that Abraham Lincoln was actually a vampire slayer...
That clip from Good Will Hunting never gets old.
They had me from $2.50 gas.
While you're at it kids you too can learn about the value of electronic money and credit in your life:
http://www.hasbro.com/monopoly/en_US/play/details.cfm?R=D4391011-5056-900B-1016-FDED3497EE10:en_US
don't forget these helpful hints:
1) Make sure you are the banker, as this will give you a reason to be by the money.
2) Place the bank behind you so no one can reach it. This will make them give you the money first.
3) Every so often, instead of putting the money in the bank, set it under you, then secretly, take it out and put it in your stash of money.
4) Roll the dice, then quickly say any number you want (without letting them see the dice) and pick up the dice quickly afterward.
5) Be creative. There are many ways to cheat, but how you carry them out is what counts.
6) Always be on the look out for other cheaters, and/or people who are looking around (so you know when to cheat)
7) Also, try to deal out the money at the beginning of the game, treat yourself to a few more twenties (above that amount will be too noticeable)
8) If you are a good cheat, following these steps, you will soon be winning every game of Monopoly.
BUT the best part of being a banker in MONOPOLY is...according to the rules on the lid"...is, if you the banker, runs out of money, you are to take a piece of paper and write any denomination you wish on it and continue to play the game.
Sorta sounds like real life, doesn't it?

F*ck, that's seriously creepy. Remember kids, see something, say something. Even if it's mommy and daddy - we love you.
I confess. I had the hots for Daphne from Scooby doo fame when i was a youngin'.
Too preppy for me... I preferred Veronica from the Archies... Let's do a quick poll...
<== DAPHNE [from Scooby Doo]
<== VERONICA [from Archies]
Sorry, but Velma was stacked!
Who didn't?
Like we were going to be hot for Velma.
More dudes probably had the hots for Fred than Velma.
Now Marianne vs. Ginger, that's where it gets contentious.
Marianne would be way spunkyier in bed.
I don't know how I knew that when I was twelve, but I did.
One word: Agent 99.
Not Mrs. Peel from the Avengers?
Marianne, for sure. Laverne or Shirley? Sorry

The Constitution is a living breathing document. None of it really applies any more. Besides, we are the government and we are here to help. We only want what is best for The People. What a glorious country. The best country the world has ever known. All hail the holy dollar. All hail the Chief. All hail the Bomb and the Holy Fallout! Glory Be to Amerikkka!
CryptoKid vs Cypherpunk?
It's like Batman vs The Joker.
Meh, more like Gumby vs The Blockheads.
I AM GUMBY, DAMMIT!
Actually, it reminds me of one of my favorite quotes:
Claire Wolfe
"Thru this life you'll travel, You will meet some funny men,
Some will rob you with a six gun, some with a fountain pen.
Thru this life you'll ramble, thru this life you'll roam
You will never see an outlaw, take a family from their home.
Pretty Boy Floyd - Woody Guthrie
Jesus...I thought this was a joke at first...
I'm looking at the webpage now.
This is the creepiest shit I've ever seen.
what's even creepier is imagining the strategy meetings that gave birth to this idea.
Oh I would dearly love to have sat in on any of those. I think these punks are running scared. See my post directly below.
Imagine the Images that they did just for fun between them that were never put up on the server
Then there's the bill for said meetings that we all paid.
The government schools have been training our children for this new world for quite awhile. This NSA Kids and the "See something, say something" campaigns are part of a continuum of brainwashing that has been going for decades, starting with Carter's Department of Education, Goals 2000, and continuing up through No Child Left Behind, the current U.S. implementation of UNESCO.
"This is the creepiest shit I've ever seen."
It was even creepier back before they dropped the "Inform on your parents" icon.
I really can't describe this shit.
It's like some weird Orwellian (or something) propaganda from The Wall.
It would be one thing if this was for the EPA or something (and maybe there is something similar for the EPA)...but the NSA???
I'm bringing this to the attention of every person I know.
I can't believe there are only 107 comments on this post.
"National Security":
The process of denying the individual their right to their personal privacy in order to maintain the State's right to its own privacy (aka "secrecy").
Privacy and Liberty are so tighly intertwined that all of humanity had better quickly get their brains wrapped around the fact that the State has NO right to secrecy....
None.
We elect Representatives, and they appoint unelected "specialists" to maintain secrecy and then sugar coat it with such platitudes as:
"YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH, so go back to watching American Idol and thinking about whose ass needs to be kissed at the office in order to lock down next year's 1.5% merit increase"
The NSA is Constitutionally illegal. The State's secrets do not rise above due process of law-
The fucking NSA is a willful violation of the 4th Amendment- WE are entitled to be secure in our homes, papers and affairs... NOT the Federal Government.
This is all REGARDLESS of whether we are operating under the Emergency War Powers Act, the Patriot Act, or the COG clauses...
FOURTH FUCKING AMENDMENT, Bitchez...
Here's the other thing:
The ONLY people on Earth who rise to the intellectual level required to break most modern algorithms are also far down the spectrum.
It's only a matter of time until Psychology realizes that the only difference between Autism/Aspergers and neural psychopathy is that psycopaths all like to be "in charge"; while the autistic have no grasp on the concept of hierarchical authority... and thus do their tasks for the psychopaths with no dure regard for the downstream consequences of their actions...
Meanwhile, the fucking people who just want to be left the fuck alone and to pursue thier own self-interest will continue to be identified as the targets of "justified aggression"
I'm going back to digging my hole.
What this website suggests to me is that actually the NSA is in a terrible bind.
There are probably too few technology job applicants applying for NSA jobs who can pass a security background check.
Look what should be happening. NSA should be able to go to any large college, recruit talent right out of classrooms (fuck waiting for graduation) but they can't. Why can't they? Because most students taking technology courses now are natives of India and China. Both of which countries are significant targets of NSA cybersnooping activity, or sources for info-warfare and corporate espionage directed at US targets'.
I think the Homeland Security information warfare service must be on the verge of starvation.
Even if so it doesn't mean any of us can relax. A wounded viper can still kill you. But I suspect they are going to start to lose more battles than they can win some ways down the road.
And if you have children and you don't mind having them spy on your email messages later, directing them into a career in "information services" might support you in your old age.
"Because most students taking technology courses now are natives of India and China. Both of which countries are significant targets of NSA cybersnooping activity, or sources for info-warfare and corporate espionage directed at US targets'."
Good points. H1B visas won't do for TS security clearances.
