But since the government sent arms to Mexico, didn't track them, didn't attempt to apprehend the people they sold them to, and when Americans were killed by them their first reaction was to blame the American Manufacturers and Dealers and call for new laws. Makes me think twice about calling SS insane.
Now two years ago before the above scenario took place I might have agreed with you. Not today. That has shown the government is not above playing politics with the lives of Americans.
I stayed with Timothy Leary for the summer of 1967 and began to feel I could not trust anyone, even the smiling guru who was asked to leave Harvard after innocently conducting LSD experiments with undergrads there. Finding out he had previous CIA connections and that his first wife committed suicide on his birthday made me think twice about where I could place my trust.

In much later years as Tim grew reflective his new mantra was 'Don't Trust Authority'
