Groklaw shuts down over fears of email snooping

Look, I don’t know what will work these days. The powerful clearly do not fear insurrection or communism… yet. So perhaps you are right. But sabotaging the means of production will be prosecuted as terrorism, and any group advocating it will be rounded up faster than kiddie pornographers at an FBI convention. Of course advocating violence is not an actual criminal offense (1st amendment and all). That’s why the government had to keep straining to paint Anwar Al-Awlaki as an “operational” member of a terrorist group. But our government is utterly lawless when it comes to protecting its own power. I’m afraid nothing is going to stop this juggernaut but its own arrogance and oversteps. Law “enforcement” is out of control, drunk and mad in its power. This is going to get way worse before it gets any better.
