Homeland Security?


It seems that the Fourth ranking deputy of our Homeland Security office has a hobby.It involves the Internet and fourteen year old Florida girls. Don't think you need anymore details, you all have imaginations.

A personal friend was involved in something like this earlier this year and it just about crushed me. Now, with a high ranking government guy doing the same thing, well lets just say YUCK!

First off, what makes someone willing to risk family, career, etc, for a child?? I can't really wrap my mind around that. What is missing, what hole is there there that requires the use child to fill the need?

Compassion turned off a second. Outrage on. What is going on if we're not even safe from HOMELAND SECURITY??? And (cynicism on) how long until someone says this is a left wing media attempt to bring down a "good man." According to some light Googling, he is the deputy press secretary. Kind of the second "face" of the Department. Extrapolation, I guess that means he knows how to work the press and how to deal with media. Nothing deals with him on the DHS website, just his phone number, so you can call and let him know what you think. And we are under an "Elevated" terror risk today. I ought to keep tabs on that like I do the air quality and pollen counts.

Let's see, pollen count - high, Air quality, acceptable, terror threat, medium, hmm a good day for a long run. I feel especially safe because I am NOT a fourteen year old girl.

He even told her what he did for a living. Did she believe him, or did she think he was some punk trying to impress her? Even with the government issued cell phone numbers, she could have not believed him. Who knows. The good news is that the Department includes, (from the DHS website) Office of Inspector General – employees work side-by-side with special agents, attorneys, engineers, and IT experts to prevent and detect fraud, waste, and abuse in Homeland Security programs and operations. And technology experts: U.S. Secret Service – employees have the dual missions of protecting our nation’s leaders, and criminal investigation involving law enforcement, security, information technology, communications, administration, intelligence, forensics, and other specialized fields.

There are employees trained to find abuse and use information technology, right there in the department. No need for outside help. Go team.
