Funny. I did a "find" on this story's text and the words "indict" and "arrest" aren't there. Ah well, I'm sure that's merely "a 'good-hearted but not well-thought-out' solution"...

  1. How many FBI agents will be prosecuted for this ILLEGAL activity? Can you spell zero?

    How many FBI supervisors will be prosecuted to proposing, supporting, and covering for this illegal activity? Can you spell zero?

    How many FBI agents will resign in disgust..oh hell, nevermind.

    Different sets of rules for (us) mortals and (them) "only ones".

    More and more these mandarins of all stripes are making the only hope of arresting criminals with badges a case of necessarily arresting their heartbeats.

    It appears to be an intentional provocation on their part. I do not think they realize that once they have provoked the public beyond endurance they cannot win, let alone achieve their planned "crackdown" on people who dissent.
