Gosh, its almost as if Geofeedia for some reason thought just openly stating what service they were marketing directly to their federal clients was A-OK. I'm sure the government helped them clean up their 'marketing language' even though they probably already are the only seller of said service...but hey, its all good, there's a rider attached to the contract that says to disregard that contract in favor of the newly negotiated ambiguous Schrödinger's contract. The publicly-available paperwork is all in order if anyone wants to file a FOIA, wait for 4.5 years, then not get it.
This level of gaslighting may have been bizarre to me 8-10 months ago but anyone following how the media has been covering the presidential election and concurrent major world events...this is nothing: its happening on much a bigger scale than this example by far if anyone cared to look. How much coverage of possible US provoking war with Russia, the migrant invasion of the EU, omens of an expanding credit bubble much worse than '08, running interference for subversive and violent anti-rights SJW groups. Or the latest Wikileaks...these are huge. Then people act surprised when others choose Donald Trump over Hillary Clinton. Spare me the sanctimony, please.
Might as well just start referring to them as the "International Secret Police Community" since the revelations within the last few years have shown the massive amounts of information sharing and collaboration occurring.
Without the US to ensure our version of "free speech" as defined by the 1A (even as imperfect as it is and as imperfectly as it is ensured) is order of the day, its a given that other extremely more questionable organizations such as the ITU will be gunning for, and will receive, the power to ensure "free speech" as defined by most of the rest of the world. And that's at minimum, more likely it will be much worse considering that's just the baseline: other international organizations' "free speech" definition will inevitably devolve it further.
I have a feeling that the unedited 911 call may possibly have some specific information he uttered that some think might cause a huge countrywide panic and the biggest gun-buying spree the world has ever known.
I have to be honest, taking in the full scope of the disheartening and demoralizing things that have been going on the last few years and the target...this one is kind of an amusing distraction.
I remember buying Haunted House with some money I earned from doing yard stuff and then stealing $10 from my mom's purse, let me tell you...it was no Adventure if you get my drift. Kids these days don't know how hard Gen X had it with video games.
So...this Blue Book these high-fallutin' law schools publish, that's the same one where you find fair and current automobile market prices right? Or maybe I'm mistaking that Blue Book with another book... [insert rimshot emoticon here]
