so i read this story, and others in the media on this subject, and i see that the cops have accessed hundreds of thousands emails and phone calls.

with that many 'suspects' investigated, why have we not seen the thousands of arrests that should follow? and the hundreds if not thousands of convictions after that?

we can see that in the case of the 'terrorist' attacks from last month that the cops had been 'watching' the accused, but did nothing to stop them. why?

were they stalking innocent people? did that stalking then drive the stalked to commit these acts?

There are no innocent people. Everybody is guilty of something.

So, it's all good.

captain awesome is on the 'all cops are criminals' bandwagon now. who'd a thunk it.

where are the thousands of arrests? hundreds of convictions?

or it just cop surveillance under false pretenses? pervert, criminal cops getting off on and proffiting from invading our privacy.

[Captain Awesome]

criminal cops getting off on and proffiting from invading our privacy.

Yeah, there's a huge money in privacy invasion.

[A_Britishcolumbian]

yes there is. how are the cops using this data they have accessed/accumulated i wonder?

obviously not to make arrests and convictions.
