to the future...

 The Department of Homeland Security just answered a freedom of information request for phone numbers of their public affairs people with a directory of the peoples' names with the phone numbers redacted. Yes, they blacked out the phone numbers of the public affairs officers "out of privacy concerns"...????  WTF?? I wonder now who do they think they work for when they are not willing to provide a contact phone number for their agency. Now we know that we live in a police state when an agency that supposed to be protecting us is more concerned about protecting its employees from contact with the public who might want to ask the agency questions.
