“I don’t have a problem with (government surveillance). I don’t have anything to hide,” Turner said. “I wish there was more government monitoring. I want to know if somebody on my block is reading a book on how to build a bomb or if there is anyone reading ‘Catcher in the Rye.’ They say there’s a link between that book and many serial killers.”

Hey, I read and enjoyed “Catcher in the Rye.” I encouraged my stepson to read “Catcher in the Rye,” and several of his friends also read it. Reading books is dangerous! Reading makes people think! Serial killers don’t kill people! Books kill people!
So I think you should do your civic duty, and report us to the FBI because . . . well, we might be up to something you don’t like. Something dangerous like reading a book. Maybe not now, but maybe sometime in the future, or maybe not at all.
But you’d better take pre-emptive action, because that is the American way.
. . . you want Freedom fries with that?
