Until they go after the criminals out in the open, they don’t need to be looking for any others to ignore.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This isn’t for criminals.

This is for the constitutionalists.
People who revere the 2nd Amendment in particular.

Trump probably made deal with deep state to but in the bushie AG. Trump gets off the hook, and deep state runs the police state agencies against anyone that doesn’t like totalitarian government.

The US government can’t be trusted on any promise it makes.


I have a bunch of Silver Certificates that promise to pay me $1 in silver upon my demand. There is no expiration date on the note, yet the government no longer is willing to keep its promise.

Nothing you type, speak, discuss, or create by yourself should be illegal or interfered with in anyway. The only reason for people to monitor it is to control and ultimately make something illegal.

"Although not an official demonstration sport, an international ski-orienteering event was held in Sugadaira Kōgen, Japan, as part of the International Cultural Festival held in conjunction with the XVIII Winter Olympic Games in Nagano in 1998.[46]

The International Orienteering Federation petitioned the International Olympic Committee in 2002 to include ski orienteering in the 2006 Winter Olympic Games, noting that it could share the venue with the biathlon competitions.[47]

In its formal recommendation that ski orienteering not be included in those games, the Olympic Programme Commission focused on a lack of participation in the sport outside Nordic countries, "the challenges for broadcasters and spectators to easily follow the competition", and the costs associated with new technology and a new results system.[48]

In 2005, the International Olympic Committee confirmed that ski orienteering was under consideration for inclusion in the review process of the Olympic sport program for the 2014 Winter Olympic Games.[49]

On 28 November 2006, the Executive Board of the IOC decided not to include any new sports in this review process.[50]"

Then the data must be found before its encrypted.

Encryption with a back door is broken encryption.

CIA bred. Chosen by CIA Mister NWO for AG. Hence, no surprise to me.

And to think that Comey, Brennan, Clapper, Struck-Stroke and all of Obama’s other operatives were “the right hands”. Their corrupt actions convinced me that we should NEVER AGAIN trust the government because we never know when more “right hands” Stasi Wanabes will be inserted into government.

“They want more tools to go after the Bad Guys.”

Why is a back door needed? The intended viewers of encrypted data know how to decrypt it. Government can get those people to decrypt it for them.

Yep.

My lucky magnet.

It looks like a little Scotty dog.

I named it Little Scotty Dog Magnet.

About 20 years ago Al Gore and NSA were pushing the Clipper Chip and regs that put American businesses at a disadvantage. They had regs that limited the encryption I could use in Hong Kong. I like some of the things Barr has done, but this sounds like “Here we go again.” Back then I had to go to Athens to fix a bug somebody introduced to comply with Clipper.
