The FBI is damned if it tries to gather intelligence, and damned if it doesn’t.
Its agents are damned as bigots when they attempt the most modest of surveillance measures based on race, religion, or other politically incorrect criteria, and they are damned as bumblers when they fail to act on information gathered through those means. [...]
