While I find this incredibly funny, the concept behind it might well work. If all phone and e-mail traffic is clogged with terrorism "threats", none of the surveillance being done will have any value.
You assume they are actually looking for terrorists. In fact, they are looking for dissidents. I.e. truthers, nonconformists, anti-banksters, genuine leftists of the Denis Kucinich variety, and general rabble rousers.
Rest assured they are making their list and checking it twice.
Unknown @ 1209: It does not marginalize the issue. It marginalizes those who aspire to lord over us under the guise of "protecting" us.
It's brilliant. I propose a "National Talk Like a Terrorist Day", just to spite the bastards and to let them know we're on to them and we're not buying their fear mongering.
It is dangerously naive to believe the big brother snooping apparatus has been set up to stop "terrorism". All the evidence points to the police state setting up and facilitating terror events in order to justify more ape ding and more destruction of individual rights. The purpose of big brother is to protect the corrupt ruling class.
It's shit like this that marginalizes the issue.

How true! You could make a example list pages long, as I read recently, 4 million names targeted by 2008, who knows how many today.

DeleteI am reminded of an episode of "The Prisoner" series. They called themselves jammers. It's your funeral was the episode I think. One of my favorites.
