Who's watching you?

The ACLU has sued the FBI for refusing to turn over records on the Bureau's surveillance of a number of California Muslim groups. The FBI continues to claim that there are no or very limited records. The admission that there are four pages of records, after months of denial of the existence of anything, seems to be a chink in the FBI's armour.

Meanwhile J. Stephen Tidwell, the FBI's assistant director in charge for Los Angeles, released a statement that said in part: "The FBI does not investigate individuals or groups based on their lawful activities, religious or political beliefs".

So there you have it. If the FBI is investigating you it is because they already know that you have engaged in unlawful activities, religious or political beliefs.

I wonder if they can pick horses as well.
