Yeah I'm a little concerned about that this type of thing will be used in the war on drugs, along with the government the newspapers and talking heads want to scare you too....with some kind of Orwellian nightmare and that's just not what it is.

I'm actually more concerned about a general at the CIA though at the same time I'm optimistic because it's not like the CIA was doing a good job before. Sort of a wierd feeling.
