RSS icon Comments on FBI Phone Calls Rattle Local Pakistani Community

Well, if they were wiretapped by the FBI, they probably would forget to pay the bill, and AT&T would probably drop the wiretap as a result.

So, if you're rattled, just switch to AT&T and the FBI wiretaps will not be a concern, just the phone calls.

I always text them, myself. And put their texts in my SPAM bucket.

Meet in public and bring a witness...

That's some pretty sound advice, whether you're meeting the FBI or the SPD these days.

Sad how all these people are being frightened by their own government, I know how it feels and I know it is very frightening for them.

I hope they stop those seemingly random calls soon.

Are you sure this quote is correct? It doesn't seem to make sense:

What’s more troubling, Odeh says, is there doesn’t appear to be any logic to who the FBI is contacting. “They’re not just going through the phone book and calling every Pakistani,” he says. “[Some of] the people they’ve contacted are not even active in the Pakistani community.”

I recall seeing some American Moslem leaders on TV complaining that the feds weren't calling "the Moslem community" earlier on.

Look, we got feds. Are they supposed to call the community leaders, or ignore them?
