Your TALON database at work

Government says it spies on terrorists; instead, spies on peace-lovin' hippies. But hey, they have cause!: "it seems like this protest will be peaceful, but some type of vandalism is always a possibility." I see. Better dispatch a field agent. (And better put their names onto the database for the super-secret illegal eavesdropping.)

The New York Times reported that the Pentagon's current position is that "those operating the database had misinterpreted their mandate."

I feel safer already.
