Ok, I want to be the first on the list to turn someone in to the Fatherland
Security Police and Patriotisim Brigade!   I expect I will get a lot of
special treatment from The Government for becoming an informer, but as I
probably can only do this once, I want to bag someone really important to
give them.

....now let me think.  Who is it that spells Amerika with a "K" the most
often?  It would be helpful to my cause if I could "double dip", that is,
catch two pigeons with one stone, so to speak.  Minorities are always good;
women are good; alternative lifestyle...that be good; alternative sexual
preference is a keeper; obscure or "unpopular" religious beliefs can always
be counted on to bring out the best in government equiries and intellectual
pogroms and, of course, there is always Radical Politics to stir up a man's
patriotic ferver or fervor or fever or whatever.

So, does someone want to volunteer a convenient scapegoat...say a Vietnamese
Lesbian Communist Biker or a Gay Sufi Socialist Musician.  Come one, here,
time's a wastin'.  So speak up...and leave me your email address please.

Its ok to turn in friends, neighbors, local grocers, loud children or anyone
against whom a grudge can be reasonably held...or glued, just as long as I
can claim they are on the list, were on the list, are thinking about joining
the list, know someone who once dated the son of someone who read the list.
That sort of thing.  Hey, could be the start of a whole new career.

Roger,  If the Internet is our only way to spread the truth, outside of
corporate controlled & politically attuned media, then you can be damned
sure that the screws will SOON be tightened on this "alternative" news
venue.  Better watch what you say on this List, lest a full transcript of
your political rants be later used against you by Homeland Security!  Surely
you are not so naive to think that our ghetto yaks can't be accessed by any
Thought Policeman who so desires?  By no means do I think you should shut
up.  If your bleak view of American top-level hypocrisy is accurate,
however, you should be counting the costs.  I get no suggestion from your
posts that you are, or care to do so.  How hip is this?  jaxon
