Infamous,

Everyone is just ticked that a security guy found a problem and reported it. To make matters worse, he was arrested by a lackluster no-nothing police agency called the FBI. And, we all know that the FBI couldn't catch the clap in a whorehouse. That is the issue. The political scum that is suppose to take care of you and me can only react to low hanging fruit, not the real criminals.
