Apparently, people will protest anything.
Here they are protesting against the extradition of Julian Assange of Wikileaks.
Assange allegedly published loads of classified documents stolen from this country.
That is NOT journalism or freedom of speech.
It is spreading stolen materials, endangering the nation, and maybe even espionage!
Freedom of speech is calling out a possible rat when we see one and having him brought to face justice. 😉

So this is a city with a lot of secrets.Â
I’m not talking about just the run-of-the-mill, non-disclosure agreement (NDA).
This is Top Secret Tinseltown!
And even the stuff that comes out in the news–whether it’s clandestine transfers of $1.7 billion to the Ayatollahs in Iran or the Uranium One deal with the Russians, there is plenty of dirty little games going on.Â
What was hilarious is when when saw this huge industrial shredding truck in the parking lot:
Paper Shredding * Electronic Destruction * Medical Waste Disposal
And there were a line of cars waiting to get rid of their little secrets.
I kid you not when I say that on a Saturday morning, there were at least 25 cars in line to dispose of their “stuff.”
Now who do you know in what city that waits 25 cars deep in line for an industrial shredder on a Saturday morning.
And the cars are pulling up, the trunks are popping open, and boxes and boxes of paper and electronic files are being handed over.Â
Gee, I hope the Russians or Chinese aren’t getting into the shredding business…and inside the truck isn’t a large shredder but a bunch of analysts waiting for you to hand it all over. 😉
