Is WNL dead? An attempt to log on brings me to the hosting company's site. Oh, and don't worry overmuch about the end of civilization because the coppers got some incomplete information. If Nero is fiddling, it's because he recognizes that the penultimate development of a collapsing society is losing control of their borders. We're well down that path already. Now if only the massive civil unrest and collapse of law-and-order would get here, we could call the whole thing done, and start over. Good luck to the pacifists then.

Being arrested (and then promptly released, of course) is pretty much the Holy Grail for these nuts. A quick Google of the guy's name shows him to be a lifetime professional protester. While the Government should not be willy-nilly investigating every patchouli-reeking malcontent in the country, it's probable that this guy popped up on their radar for reasons unrelated to "peaceful demonstration". And eating cookies does not automatically preclude one from being a psychopath. I'm sure Dahmer enjoyed a soft-baked Toll House Butterscotch cookie from time to time.

According to <a href="http://www.whitehousedrugpolicy.gov/policy/index.html" rel="nofollow">HIDTA's online policy statement</a>, there would appear to be some serious confusion at HIDTA as to what their mission really is.
