Question and answers follows the talk (54:29) with Jay Sulzberger asking the last question (72:00)
...makes you cringe???? My god how is it that we have become so 'sensitized' to bold and courageous moves on the part of Anonymous; and expression of legitimate anger and rage; yet have become so sedated and desensitized to the horror that this govt and its agents have inflicted on the people of this world??? How in the hell could anything that Anonymous could possibly do, shock or disturb anyone in the face of such horror and criminal atrocity that is perpetrated in our name?
