@LibertySpeaks @th3j35t3r I have questions and can't read this because it's behind a paywall I can read it at home tho. I have to accompany kids to DC in August and we are going all the places. There's time set aside for Museums. What age range would this fit? Not all are great at English speaking. ?
@Klaatu_Veratta_Nectarine Honestly, I think in todays digital age, kids are introduced to the computer early on as well as James Bond, etc. This is part of not just our Nations history, but globally. I think if the child is old enough to walk and look around, old enough to know what a lap top is, and perhaps old enough to pay attention, then take the kids. You never know what can inspire a young mind. cc @th3j35t3r
@LibertySpeaks @th3j35t3r ❤️ I was already lobbying for it, something about the article headline just made me think,maybe it's too dark. Some of these kids parents have been deported. :'(
@Klaatu_Veratta_Nectarine the NYT I feel was being a tad over dramatic for effect. @th3j35t3r
Though @th3j35t3r may get irked with me a bit for this, if ya want to impress the kids and make them feel at ease, you can tell the kids you hang out online with the guy who once owned this. https://www.spymuseum.org/exhibition-experiences/exquisitely-evil/weapons-of-mass-disruption/
@LibertySpeaks @th3j35t3r people text me photos of it when they visit. But no i woukd never tell the kids that or the people I am going with. Then they would ask questions and i don't need any adults there knowing who Klaatu is online. Lol
@LibertySpeaks @th3j35t3r Klaatu online is very much interested in and working on other things than Klaatu's meat space I.d. and has a lot of kids to protect. Lol

"A room devoted to interrogation and torture features an actual waterboard."
If your waterboarding involves an actual board, you are doing it wrong.
Also, not a fan of them lumping interrogation and torture together, responsible interrogators stay clear of torture every day. This helps perpetuate the notion of interrogators going off the rails at Abu Graib (no interrogators were involved in that mess btw)
@d_asher Like I said, NYT brought the drama to the article. I'm only interested and pointed the post out to everyone here because my bud has his laptop there. @Klaatu_Veratta_Nectarine @th3j35t3r
@LibertySpeaks @d_asher @th3j35t3r I just sent the info to the one in charge of the trip and he says we're going so we're going, inspire all the littles to study cyber things and languages! Yay! He read the article and say the video. Seemed to think it was cool.
@Klaatu_Veratta_Nectarine Cool! Hope the kids have a good time @d_asher @th3j35t3r
@d_asher @LibertySpeaks @th3j35t3r Yeah, tbat was the Kentucky National Guard and who knows who else, I distinctly remember a woman from Kentucky National Guard though and wondering what the hell happened to the leadership.
@d_asher @LibertySpeaks @th3j35t3r I guess it woukd matter how it is presented. I haven't read the article yet.
@LibertySpeaks @th3j35t3r oh cool!
