He didn't look the kind of guy I wanted to argue with...

Seriously? He would have assaulted you? On what grounds?


Gee, I dunno. Disobeying a Secret Service agent's direct order, perhaps?

I have to believe there's a law broken in there, somewhere...



Wise move. Those guys can turn from extremely polite to extremely serious
in a blink of an eye.


Granted. Still, I wonder by what legal authority they stopped Jay from going
to his plane? Would they have shot him? For merely going about his daily
business? What kind of headlines would that have made? What if Jay had
called the cops?

Solzhenitsyn said in "The Gulag Archipelago" that the Soviet people could
have lifted their oppression at any time. What if, instead of submitting to
the Cheka, the person being arrested in the middle of the night said no? And
everyone around him said no? In the end, that is how the Soviet Union fell.

They know that they cannot kill us all. They know that they need us more
than we need them. Why else do you think they are so frightened? It is
because they can no longer do their dirty work in secret. In every computer
in every house, from every fax machine and every telephone, the word
spreads, no matter what lies are printed in the newspapers, no matter what
they say on the television or broadcast over satellites.

They are few. The people are many. We can also turn from extremely polite to
extremely serious in the blink of an eye. All it takes is a match to kindle
the flame.
