IN MY OPINION: If the FBI has had a sit-down with you twice, and decided that there's nothing they can hold you for, all the 1984 Minority Report Brave New World Zardoz psychic violence thoughtcrime monitoring in the world isn't going to make anyone one iota safer. Frickin' Russian intelligence sent the FBI a mash note saying "Hey, this guy Tsarniev - we think he's really fuckin' dangerous" and he still filled a pressure cooker full of nails. Are we really going to get more actionable intelligence by monitoring everyone's Facebook feed?
