What do you have to do to get the FBI to open a file on you?

**SNIP**

Since the days of J. Edgar Hoover, the FBI has been compiling information on people deemed to be worthy of watching. But what do you have to do to attract their attention? Would buying a copy of "The Anarchist Cookbook," checking out a Noam Chomsky book at your local library, or attending an Occupy protest be enough to get your own FBI file? How do you find out whether or not you’ve got a file with the FBI, and if so, what’s in it? We try to get to the bottom of your top secret self.

Mostly just exist, I’d think.

Ask the question.

Go to google and enter some politically incorrect words. Don’t spare the verbs, they are attracted to action verbs. If Alice’s Restaurant holds any lessons for us in this modern era, you may even get a job offer from them.

I’m sure the numerous websites I have that bash the government and Obummer on a regular basis have me on multiple lists. Do I care? NO. They can eat my shorts.

If you are reading this you are being watched.

Suggest anything that goes against the current regime. Call Obama anything negative. Suggest that government is intruding too much in the private lives of citizens{That one is ironic. Aint we suppost to have privacy in private papers or has that been thrown out as well?}
Ooops.....guess who just ended up with a FBI file?

Quote the Bible and/or the Constitution for starters.

An entrenched bureaucracy is always interested in the actions of those who are not interested in entrenched bureaucracies.

Exist. I imagine they have files on everyone. Unless you’re an illegal alien or terrorist who slips through the cracks.

FBI File ??? Hell, I think I have an entire black helicopter squadron assigned to me.

Was that racist?

[LomanBill]

I figure the more times I can get this...

"TO SECURE THESE RIGHTS, governments are instituted among men"

 

...repeated in my file, the more likely it is that Agent Smith and company will read the writting on the wall and be assimilated by the American Ideals they [alegedly] swore to protect and defend.

Perhaps they could some day provide a service? When I'm senile and upset about my loss of memory, they can provide me a copy of my files just for when I'm in a fog over something? Maybe they could charge a fee per topic? When I'm 87 and I forgot who I voted for in 1980, or who Monica Lewinski was, and why I stopped smoking cigars? I can just ask the FBI for $20 per topic!

"Forgotten, But Indexed" can be the new acronym.

[IMR 4350]

Do like I did.

Provide the FBI with info on corrupt public officials.

They will turn it around and you are then considered the bad guy.

Maybe start a professional eulogy service? For $100, a life summary outline can be published for funeral purposes. We won’t need friends that way. Maybe they can even forward it to the deceaseds’ facebook page, as a final tribute?

I don’t care if they have a file on me or not, I’ve stuffed so much disinformation into my ‘official’ data they wouldn’t be able to make heads or tails out of it, so they can all KMFA.

More likely buying a gun, checking out a Hayek book from the library or attending a Tea Party would get the FBI attention.
