I'm a helluva lot more afraid of our "officials" than of any japanese dude with too much money and too little time posting to a group of anal-retentives. Follow the news as closely as you follow this group and you'll be FAR more worried by the attack from our own government on its citizens than you are of some little bank fraud. Remember Waco....
