Blogger gets night visit from US Secret Service
Blog, blog. Who’s there? Ann. Ann who? Ann who’s asking?
A WRITER on popular blog site LiveJournal has posted of her nightmare ordeal with the US Secret Service, an event spurred by a posting she made to her blog criticising George Bush prior to the Presidential Election earlier this week.
Whilst the offending post has been removed – to spare other users further Federal interference, according to author ‘anniesj’ – you can see her account of events in full, which has been left as a word to the wise.
Secret Service came a-knockin’ on Annie at 9:45 PM, but arrived quickly at the conclusion that she wasn’t a threat to National Security, more a chick living at home with her mum. Nonetheless, they made sure she got a file at the FBI including her photo, email, and medical records. I guess those boys really like to give the full service.
Agents told her that they had received a report (presumably saying that someone had dared to question the motives, sanity or intellectual capacity of The War President) from another blogger who had been reading Annie’s site, and therefore followed up. Achtung!
