Free Fall DJ #2

Passage:
"There are some people who place so much trust in their government that they will believe anything their government tells them.  They are blinded by their own inability to know better" (Mills, pg.54)

Response:
As I Read This Passage, I completely agreed with what Boeman was saying. I do believe that sometimes people are "blinded" with anything that their leaders tell them. However, this is not true with all people. Some people actually know better, and are always skeptic, and those people are usually those who are always right.

Analysis:
In this passage Boeman is talking about how naive people are, but sometimes this is justifiable because people are "blinded" by their own government to believe anything. As Boeman tries to go public about his findings on many members of Congress, he worries that the public might not believe him. He is certain that the FBI will almost certainly acuse him of being a rouge agent, and he wonders if it's even worth it to try.
