Hope you're not thinking about emailing the US government anything stupid...

A friend of mine knew someone in her college who mailed a death threat to Clinton when he was president. FBI agents showed up in the college (IN DUBLIN) to interrogate him within four days of the mail being sent.

I personally knew someone who mailed a death threat (as a joke) from a web café in Limerick to John Bruton (Taoiseach at the time). The Irish secret service (whatever they're called...) showed up just under a week later.

Funny how the FBI were faster.

This is true.

If the above is true then you know two people who send death threats.

If the above is false then you are an unbar legend spreading muppet.

AFAIK both the army and the Gardai have a "secret service".

The army version is possibly known as G2(confirmed this by non-lazily reading the link posted by irishgeo, ta!), and was primarily tasked with observing the activities of the left wing groups (and their ties to Republicans) which emerged throughout the last 60 or so years. Should have been easy, it was the usual Stalinistas in the SWP protesting about Mrs. Smith not getting her milk!:D

Seriously though, following the collapse of the Soviet Bloc they were out of work. Now that Osama stalks the earth they are busy watching the coming and goings of various middle eastern folk, and the flow of money in and out of Irish banks from that region.

As for the rozzers? Busy watching the Chuckies mostly. I remember passing the Oakwood Arms in Shannon about 5 years ago the day that Martin Ferris was to hold an event there to lauch his Euro election capaign. The place was swarming with the feckers, and they were far from secret!

Bard's first story is certainly true, it happened in DCU in '93-94. The full story is that the guy sent the mail from the computer of a classmate of his while she was AFK and the FBI came to investigate her. She, naturally, had no idea what was going on, until they showed her the e-mail and the guy eventually owned up. A life ban from entering America, a ban from sitting exams for 12 months and instant celebrity ensued for all involved.

Signing the odd petition can be bad for your health as well.

I heard a story of somebody signing a petition against Reagan's bombing of Libya in the 80s, then a few years later being refused a visa to the US because their name showed up on a State Department list somewhere.

Moral of the story is...your name is Gerry Adams! They'll never refuse him entry.

I have heard of a group nicknamed the Garda Red Squad, who are supposedly associated with watching the comings and goings of those who would be considered high risk,ie terrorists. Unfortunatley I have no litrature to back this up.
