    Was just thinking about them. Wonder if they are rotating these guys out of the Presidents security.

    Their nerves must be about shot, all of these trips with side trips to unsecure regions. Going two different ways one him and one his wife.
    Then the VP starts to run around.

    Wonder how many have been trained to work with the president.


    I can just hear the head guy he wants to do what this time.

    I just finished reading In the President's Secret Service by Ronald Kessler. It's a quick and good read. In it, the author states that the threats against your sitting president are up 400%. Golly...I wonder why?

    it seems the secret service has an eye on me, my article in the papers, seem to hit a nerve, they were told to investigate.
    two guys came this morning, they came in, I told them to have a seat.
    I grab my articles the ones that have been printed, and said here, this is what I do now. about 15 minutes they were out of my hair.
    But I wish I had something to sweep the house to bugs, one guy wanted to take alook at the flag on the living room wall, my retirement flag. he was out of sight for a few minutes, I am not the type too worry about that, they ask some questions, one I did not feel really honest with, do you own firearms? any way they are out of my hair, but probably just down the road. I was having a bad day, could not get out of bed, I fought myself to get to the chair, I guess when your a * they dont take you serious

    Buddy at work just told me that he is about to get selected, been over a year since he applied. An agent was in our office today talking to folks. He has about 6 months of training that he needs to pass too.

    Today a couple friend and I were talking about the Secret Service "episodes" during the Obama regime. One thing after the other scattered around the globe.

    All of us are over 70 been around awhile lot of years and not one could recall Secret Service problems during other administrations

    Can anyone recall any scandals wit the SS outside the Obama mess?

    You just "let them in" without a warrant or counsel present for you? Man thats like inviting a vampire into your house-it renders you powerless against them(anything in plain view could be used against you at that point)[;)] If they want to talk to you without counsel present then under no circumstances are they setting foot inside the house without a warrant--make 'em stand out in the rain for all I care.

    How's about enlightening those of us that don't have a clue as to what you are talking about.



    ""The Secret Service just doesn't show up to make small talk""
    All the questions they asked of you, they already knew the answers to.
    What ARE you involved with??? {don't answer here, it's a question for you only} IF they bugged your home, the arrest orders/ warrants are sitting on someones desk waiting.

    Since our resident Agent Provacateur* is no longer on the boards, I guess the nutjob sweeps have begun.

    * An agent provocateur is a person assigned to provoke unrest, violence, debate or argument by or within a group while acting as a member of the group

    I write in my hometown paper, the editor knows me, and most of the time I get posted, I posted the last article I wrote, "Proud to be an American" I call the white house twice a day, I call my senators twice a day, I know I raise hell, and I figure the F.B.I. or Secret Service has a book on me. I had nothing to hide. I let them in to talk.
    I gave them my book file, its a copy of everything I have written since 99. My wife was chomping at the bits, I was calm, she was ready to chew their *. Must be doing something right.[}:)]

    Good for you !! Keep up the good work. The "visit" was must likely because of the white house calls. I'm sure they have a LUD file {line usage details] on your phone. This is not a "tap" which should require a judge's signature, "Just" a list of incoming/out going numbers. Bob

    Its been a long long pass time of the feds to watch journalists and public speakers.


    Chances are they would bug your home while you are away or asleep.

    Not sure you can get the meters to even find the newest strain of bugs. find an X local PD private bug planter and turn him loose in your home is my suggestion. If he finds 1 there is more, they ar redundant.

    Uncle Sam's come out of the closet a voyer..[8D] I always suspected.[:D]

    If you are doing nothing wrong and have done nothing wrong what is the big deal? They can come to my house any time and talk and ask questions. Hell I will even offer to take them out back to my range, supply the guns and ammo for a little target shooting. They are people doing a job just like anyone else. I would much rather have the CIA or the FBI in my house than most local cops. My God look at the couple of local yokels out west on here ranting and raveing all the time. I question their sanity. I sure as hell don't want them in my house.

    I do not believe these require a Judge's signature & can be obtained through either a GJ Subpoena or an Administrative Request. They will show all outgoing numbers & incoming numbers. All the telephone company needs to do is search their central billing records. A real time search, such as a Pen Register or Title 3 request, does require a Judge's authorization as they are searches.

    Also, an inhouse scan will only pick up physical bugs. It is much easier to just bug your phone from the phone company end and that doesn't emit any signals inside your home.

    Well,

    Do not for one second believe that your mental faculties haven't been questioned;

    They have been, and for good reason.

    Sure was. Yes I love my Government. Don't like the people that are running it right now. But that could be changed if people like you would get off their * and get out there and campaign for the right people. Instead you sit on your * all day pissing and moaning on this forum trying to impress every body. Don't work because you are a laughing stock on here. You should see the dozens of emails I get about you and 496! A lot of them don't like the NRA but they sure do like to laugh at you two!! [:D][:D][:D][:D]

    Dozens? Uh-huh. Credibility means nothing to a fool like you, eh? Good for you and... whatever moron is corresponding with you. Gay porn from one of your anti-gun butt buddies, has little to do with anyone here, butt hopefully it will fry your computer so as to give us a respite from your mongoloid inability to carry a thought to it's logical conclusion. It does provide the basis in truth about your private GB conversations, so I guess that's good enough for you.
