On a related note, Glenn and Janine, what's your assessment of the likely effectiveness of the aforementioned tools given what you know?

I'll just say that I consider you the spiritual successor to Hunter even apart from the fact that you work for RS. I'm glad that if you only had one encounter with him that it was a reasonably positive one.

I saw HST once in the '80s at a campus appearance in Minnesota. He was very funny and engaging, but I was intimidated by him personally even though I thought his work was both the most hilarious thing I'd ever read and among the most important and influential. I hope that the movies done about him don't turn him into a cartoon figure because his writing, especially his Nixon obit, is still worth reading even today.

Good luck with that. LEO love to pretend that human trafficking and prostitution are the same thing. This gives them free rein to prosecute the latter under the guise of the former. They would tell you that no prostitutes do so voluntarily, which I believe is blatantly false.

If we're so confident they're terrorists, why won't we give them a fair trial?

Oh no, rather than trying to kill them, we're forcing them to stay alive instead...because we're so humane.
