Marine Corps Colonel speaks out, "We're building a domestic army"

There are things people talk about we never see on the news. Lately some of my friends and I have been wondering when someone will actually question the security of this country given two low level people not only got their hands on classified information, but were able to release them.

Stop and think as you read about Pfc. Bradley Manning and Edward Snowden. Someone thought it would be safe to let these two get their hands on secret information. What does that say about the people in charge? Should make us all nervous about who else is out there only instead of giving the information, they give it to other nations or worse, more terrorists.

To me, it isn't so much the government is doing it but the fact the government doesn't know who is doing what with what they do scares the crap out of most of the people I know.

I don't buy into most conspiracy theories for one very simple reason. There is enough of the known stuff going on to worry about.

It is unclear whether any of the wrongly obtained information was used for illegal or illicit purposes.
