SWAT Team Detains Popular Gamer Who Was Live-Streaming ‘Counter-Strike’ - http://techcrunch.com/
http://techcrunch.com/2014/08/27/swat-team-detains-popular-gamer-who-was-live-streaming-counter-strike/ the biggest danger in America today seems to be militarized police and swat teams...who else actually attacks Americans except the occasional maniac mass killer or angry high school student the latter of which it seems unlikely will be detected in time to prevent them and seem to be a mere statistical likelihood in an extremely alienated society which cannot be prevented without "curing" the society which at the moment seems a far possibility from occurring.

https://firstlook.org/theintercept/document/2014/07/23/march-2013-watchlisting-guidance/ One question here, what exactly is a terrorist? Seems like an overly broad and undefined naming of various threats. What is the purpose of the "terrorist" label - I think only to terrorize the population in order to rationalize purchasing weapons etc. from weapons manufacturers and rationalizing the stealth welfare system they call Homeland Security.
And of course to allow the NSA to continue to waste valuable social resources on useless recording of millions of exchanges between citizens which serve no actual purpose since there is no mathematically realistic analysis that can make all that information useful...though it can be used for political and personal persecution of groups and individuals when its convenient for someone that has access to the information. Just in case after the fact information. Wouldn't it be better if all these NSA geeks did something useful like secure internet communications (if that is remotely possible) or pounding a beat somewhere looking after identified threats and their activities. Instead they waste electricity and impose a tremendous cost on society by their employment.
I am still amazed the day I was boarding the ferry boat on a 9/11 anniversary and some apparent sympathizers of attacking the towers were on the Jersey side admiring their work or their surrogate terrorists and no one was watching them or taking names...
