Terrorists Run Amok, Violence Is Rampant

[JR]

not that i am assuming you are interested a round of your favorite game of "conspiracy/counter conspiracy" , but i cannot find any other mention of this "bust" on the web that was "announced by the Justice Department".

why isnt that looked at as strange or questionable?

its pretty odd that no websites "that are being bounced to the DEA webpage" are mentioned as quoted in the article.

even a little strange that search strings like
"Operation Pipe Dreams"
"Operation Headhunter"
and any quotes mentioned on the page do not show up in search engines.

The DEA and Justice Department must have the shittiest press releases on the planet... or the appeal of conspiracy theories, when combined with paranoia and general lunacy have a way of propogating faster that Google.com can spider pages.

The arguement to me PD is something like getting pulled over for failure to use a turn signal and then pointing to a guy doing 75mph in a 35mph zone to say "see! why are you pulling me over?"

if the entire police force was ignoring the speeders to bust lesser offences and a clear pattern was present, then i can see that is a problem. but to point out one example and present it as a larger problem of the Government boogeyman coming to get us all is stretching reality a little (to me anyway)

considering the problem with all sorts of illegal online businesses and the massive and overwhelming problem it presents for law enforcement today from selling illegal medications to narcotics to scamming people for money... i am not suprised to see people being made an example out of wherever they can do it. i dont think its unreasonable to sell a "free base cocaine kit" and books on how to cut cocaine and speed as well as other obvious paraphenalia and not expect to get into trouble. you could not possible argue that these people were doing what they were doing with absolutely no hint or idea that they may possibly run into the law.
