“If you like your privacy, you can keep it”
Like a stand-up comedian with a political edge, Rand Paul deployed some witty one-liners after President Barack Obama’s comments on Friday about reforming the National Security Agency.
“What I think I heard is that if you like your privacy, you can keep it,” Paul, the Republican senator from Kentucky, said in an interview with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer. “But in the meantime, we’re going to keep collecting your phone records, your email, your text messages and, likely, your credit card information.”
In Friday’s speech, Obama called for limited reforms on how the NSA collects information, promising that the United States would no longer eavesdrop on world leaders and would rein in the vast collection of Americans’ phone data.
In Friday’s speech, Obama called for limited reforms on how the NSA collects information, promising that the United States would no longer eavesdrop on world leaders and would rein in the vast collection of Americans’ phone data.
“The reforms I’m proposing today should give the American people greater confidence that their rights are being protected, even as our intelligence and law enforcement agencies maintain the tools they need to keep us safe,” the president said.
Aside from the promise not to eavesdrop on world leaders, Obama largely left other proposed reforms up for discussion, effectively shifting the debate to congressional leaders.
Paul had another snappy response, when noting that Obama referenced American Revolution figure Paul Revere in his remarks.
“He mentioned Paul Revere. But Paul Revere was warning us about the British coming,” Paul said. “He wasn’t warning us that the Americans are coming.”
Later in the interview, Paul said he’s opposed to all massive data collection, by both the federal government and the private sector. Beyond civil liberty concerns, Paul said such massive surveillance just isn’t practical.
“Who are we going to hire, Eric Snowden’s contractor to hold all the information?” Paul said, laughing at his own joke.

My comment:
If you still believe in the messages of Barack Hussein Obama, there are only a few possible reasons left.
1. You are blindfolded.
2. You are extremely naive.
3. You simply refuse to listen to the truth.
4. You take pleasure in the evils of the US President.
There might be combinations of the four options, if you like to give me feedback on why you still are Obama supporter.

Facebook lets Islamic beheading clips return
Facebook is allowing videos showing people being decapitatend to be posted and shared on its site once again.
The social network had introduced a temporary ban in May following complaints that the clips could cause long-term psychological damage.
The US firm confirmed it now believed its users should be free to watch and condemn such videos. It added it was, however, considering adding warnings.
One suicide prevention charity condemned the move.
“It only takes seconds of exposure to such graphic material to leave a permanent trace – particularly in a young person’s mind,” said Dr Arthur Cassidy, a former psychologist who runs a branch of the Yellow Ribbon Program in Northern Ireland.
“The more graphic and colourful the material is, the more psychologically destructive it becomes.”

My comment:
To be able to explain how horrible the Holocaust was, you basically need to show videos of the crimes. The problem is that many people still have Nazi sympathies, and hail Hitler.
Let med underline that many Muslims are no-believers, and do not submit to the Koran. But when Islamic Jihad wants to brag about their blood sacrifices to Moloch, we face the same challenge as with Nazism.
How to explain the insanity and wickedness of this religion, by banning videos of people slaughtering innocent civilians, and claiming they have done something great for “god”?
We have to keep this sewage out of Europe. And the best way of warning people against Islamic immigration, is to display the fruits of Islam in all its horror.
You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
Let the parents put restrictions of the small children, so they don’t get nightmares. But it is surely better to have some sleepless nights, that to accept this Islamic cancer spreading into your local neighborhood.

Facebook want to catch you when you shop
The Facebook camera that can recognize you every time you walk into a shop.
Shoppers could soon be automatically recognized when they walk into a shop using a controversial new camera called Facedeals. This camera uses photos uploaded to Facebook to recognize people as they walk in.
Shoppers who agree to use the system, which has not been developed with Facebook, will be offered special deals.
A promotional video created to promote the concept shows drinkers entering a bar, and then being offend cheap drinks as they are recognized.
“Facebook check-ins are a powerful mechanism for businesses to deliver discounts to loyal customers, yet few businesses—and fewer customers—have realized it,’ said Nashville-based advertising agency Redpepper.
They are already trialling the scheme in firms close to their office.
‘A search for businesses with active deals in our area turned up a measly six offers.
‘The odds we’ll ever be at one of those six spots are low (a strip club and photography studio among them), and the incentives for a check-in are not nearly enticing enough for us to take the time.
‘So we set out to evolve the check-in and sweeten the deal, making both irresistible.
‘We call it Facedeals.’

My comment:
I have earlier stated that the inner room on public toilets will be the last frontier for those who do not like to be monitored by the authorities.
Some self-diggers would probably not mind publishing some funny pictures from this private room too.
On Facebook, people expose them selves. They share with their friends whats on their mind. If it is shopping and the affairs of the World, surely “Facedeals” will become popular.
Do you mind me repeating, that if you are a friend of the World, you have become an enemy of God?
Surely Jesus will separate the sheep from the goats when He returns.
