A couple folk have recently made mention of the whole anti-goon squad theme of some of our operations, and earlier today I stumbled on some other folks rather disturbing explorations of what one might call our opposite numbers, the recruitment and feeder systems for proto-goon-squads.
You ever wanted to get a brief glimpse of the opposite end of THAT playing field, here's your chance.

It's not that large a step from this...

Lookin at these kids being trained to kick in doors and act like stormtroopers reminds me of the way parents feared their own children in the novel 1984 - and why.
So have a good, long look at the flip side of the coin, and consider it well.
Just stuff to think on.

Wow - when you said "a look at the opposite side", I thought maybe you meant "LIFE". As in, a look from the other side of life - or from "the other side" of the dirt, as it were.
But the stuff you posted is scarier.
