“I might have believed it, except I checked out the communist manifesto from my schoolâ€™s library and nothing like this happened.”
The articles I read about the story always seemed to emphasize the fact that he ordered the book from China, and that was the main factor in the fed’s interest.

“so because it isn’t too far-fetched, it doesn’t matter that the accusation itself was totally false.”
I’d have to disagree with you there.

“Allright, I guess you wonâ€™t mind if I accuse you of murdering disabled puppies with a jackhammer.

After all, itâ€™s certinly plausable that you would.”
Vavrek is the kind of guy who probably feels bad about stepping on a blade a grass. I don’t think it’s plausable.

“getting visited by homeland security for ordering a â€˜red bookâ€™ doesnâ€™t seem so far fetched, especially in the light of all these new domestic spying admissions.”

I might have believed it, except I checked out the communist manifesto from my school’s library and nothing like this happened. Which is sad because I’m probably to sort of person homeland security is worried about. =P

i’d have to agree.

getting visited by homeland security for ordering a ‘red book’ doesn’t seem so far fetched, especially in the light of all these new domestic spying admissions.

the truth is, none of us really know what’s going on.

this is a problem that we will need to change.

indeed, our government is supposed to be a ‘public servant’, not a secretive tyrant.

oh, but it’s for ‘our safety’. right….

sounds just like an abusive domestic relationship to me.
