They did say that i was not currently a subject of a criminal investigation whatever that means. I know that law enforcement can legaly lie. The agent said I was "not in any trouble" and it "shouldn't take long to clear it up".

I said I would talk to an attorney first, whioch of course they had no problem with. They also said they couldn't force me to talk to them.

The only thing that might have some bearing on this as far as I can imagine is some heated emails I exchanged with various Dem Underground members last year during the election cycle. I gave as good as I got in those.

Anyone have any helpful info for me?

It is NEVER in your interest to talk to the police about ANYTHING. EVER. You might have the home address of Osama Bin Laden and by the time they get done with their obligatory fishing expedition, they'll be reaming you over a 20 year old parking ticket. If you're not under arrest, you're too busy to talk to them. 1) Shut up. 2) Be quiet. 3) Don't say anything.

This is standard practice for someone applying for a security clearance. Not you, but you have been named as a reference, friend, or in some cases simply a neighbor of someone applying. I would call and find out more facts, which they will share with you over the phone before any undo worrying.

PS. When my neighbors were questioned about me and my clearance application they all came to tell me. They wondered what the heck I was getting into that the FBI would come to people's houses and ask their questions. But it is entirely for the benefit of the prospective employee. If they are asking about a neighbor, don't try to cover up for them. Its part of your job to be honest. If it is about you, then I agree that you should see a lawyer too.

Just go talk to them. It sounds as though you have nothing to fear.

They also said they couldn't force me to talk to them.

Say nothing. Refuse to comply.

Only talk to them with an attorney present.

FPD (Federal Public Defender) says US Attorney is NOT going to pursue any charges against me.

Says I am most likely on a government watch list and to "cease and desist" any "questionable" activity on-line, or off for that matter.

Says pendulum has swung very far to one side sine 9/11 and that it will be some time before it swings back.

Thank you God.

If you believe nothing you did wrong, you don’t need lawyer or anything seriouse.

I don’t want to scare you, but the Polish death camps are looking for inmates as we speak.

It could be about something like this: (it's a federal offense):

It means that if you get stupid, and go without an attorney, and open your mouth, you are toast.
