A bill to help Homeland Security with its social media strategy moves forward in the Senate. The measure directs DHS to create a social media working group. That group would advise the department on using social media in disaster response, terrorist attacks or other emergencies. The group would also help DHS share information through social media with the public and state and local governments. The Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee passes the bill. Rep. Susan Brooks (R-Ind.) introduced it in the House in January, where it passed the following month.

Just trying to make the modern-day Gestapo more consumer friendly.
When they kick your door down and shoot your dog because you sent a text with the word "bomb" in it, you'll love them for it.
Keep cheering.

Control, that's what this is about., as a matter of fact it's all that our gov't is interested in for America. Controlling you is the prime directive of anything they do.
