"The Land of the Free"

Deep in my gut I know this is going to happen. You will hear the truth of it second- and third-hand, and you won't want to believe it. The media will portray the incident as dutiful government agents against an extremist fringe group, and you will want to believe them. But then it will happen again. And again. And suddenly one those who have died or disappeared will be someone you know. Then your doubts will begin to grow, and you will become one of those in danger.
