Elsewhere: Careful who you pal around with

If you happen to know someone who has been involved in peaceful protests of the Iraq War or the death penalty in Maryland, you too may be guilty of palling around with terrorists, according to an article in today’s Washington Post.

The Maryland State Police, according to this article, “classified 53 nonviolent activists as terrorists and entered their names and personal information into state and federal databases that track terrorism suspects” based on 14 months of surveillence in 2005 and 2006.
