In reply to Depressed...found out I have an FBI file, posted by OldSchool on February 3, 2002, at 15:11:47
Hello Old School,
Depressed?! Are you kidding?
I would KILL to have an FBI file! Susan Sarandon has an FBI file. Lillian Hellman had an FBI file. If Jesus was a modern man I bet He'd have a... well, you get my drift. Judging by the company you're in I think you must be a man of convictions who is willing to put himself on the line.
So, why the blue mood? Are you worried about repercussions or just feeling chagrined about a misspent youth?
I wonder what kind of repercussions could befall an AMERICAN CITIZEN who has an FBI file.
Civil Disobedience is permitted, right? I always saw those files as our government's lame attempt to embarrass outspoken citizens into shutting their traps, so, I figured, getting one is a badge of honor. I also thought the ACLU existed to protect those folk in case the government became overzealous in calling them out. So, Heck, if my jaw-dropping innocence on the matter doesn't dignify a didactic reply maybe you could recommend a book, Thanks!
