Yep - FR is about the only place I post anything and I add the occasional “Not saying it should happen, just commenting that it is likely” type caveat. Some of the more forceful posters make me wonder who might be watching and what they might be planning. The Fed is constantly upgrading computer systems and adding massive amounts of storage just so it can gather and hold data that might be used against the People when deemed expedient.
say hi to the nice federal agents... 
Why shouldn’t they?
If you’re in charge of tracking Islamic terrorists, and the Islamic terrorists have a big web site or Facebook page boasting about their plans and successes - it’s your duty to look at it.

Hell, my soccer mom friends are listening to Alex Jones these days and getting pretty radical.
Women I have known for a decade or more. We used to take our kids to the park together when they were 4, 5 years old, politics never came up. We go to luncheons now and suddenly it dominates conversation.
Granted, I have always been a political freak but when I see Stacy in her minvan suddenly buying gold and going to the range, I gotta admit it's a little surreal.
