    Here Hedges, nails it on the head, these laws are for a reason, we are all terrorists and drone targets. For example, from the Philly Occupy FOIA papers:

    The only people included in the unredacted portions of the intelligence reports from US Park Ranger Layla Schade to her superiors are Tim Kyle, Kenneth Lipp, Dustin Slaughter and Joanne Michele, who reported live from the NATO protests.
     
    We believe those preparing National Gathering intelligence intended to draw a connection between alleged plans for violence in Chicago with activists and journalists involved in the National Gathering in order to justify requests for increased dedication of law enforcement…
