Leviathan Eats its Own
I read an article today chronicling the torments and travails of innocent people by the USG. And a very ignoble admission on my part here: I felt nothing but hilarity and schadenfreude at the pissing & moaning from Pentagon brass, US diplomats, and others in the employ of the USG who are routinely hassled by the TSA when they fly. Hah!
A guilty pleasure reading the chronicles of tyranny against people I don’t even like anyhow. Despise really. I know, Thoreau, MLK, Gandhi, and the rest would say that an injustice to one is an injustice to all. And this is quite true. But the heart feels what it will, eh?
Indulge your dark side here.

Injustice to one is an injustice to all, sure.
Your heart feels correctly, because it is justice that has been done, not injustice.
Ironic justice done to the criminal elite is always especially gratifying to the lowly victimized masses with the smarts to realize what has transpired.
