Bad? Brilliant?

The American University Eagle reported yesterday that "eight protests against military recruitment on college campuses were included among more than 1,500 'suspicious incidents' listed in the Department of Defense's Threat and Local Observations Notice database..."

Luckily, only one of these "suspicious incidents," which occurred on April 5, at UC Santa Cruz, was cited by the Pentagon as a "credible threat."

The April 5 protest drew more than 200 people, who "stormed" (actually a self-described mime-like staccato pace) a job fair where recruiters were stationed, vowing to stage a 'gay kiss-in.' An hour later, the protest ended after the recruiters called it a day and the "threat" to freedom subsided.

Rumor has it that UCSC activists' "international" calls to organize rides to this weekend's ultimate frisbee tournament in NorCal are now being "monitored."

And they say the US is ill-prepared for another terror attack.

Thanks to inside informant EHannon for his lengthy interview with terror suspect and ultimate frisbee champion, J.D. Harry. Unfortunately, it's been subpoenaed by the NSA.
