National Guard General’s Aide Suspended Over Affiliation With Web Site
I’m not sure whether to be relieved or offended at the First Amendment slap-down:
An aide to the California National Guard’s top general has been suspended pending an investigation into his connection to a Web site that appeared to advocate mass violence.

William Wade II, on paid administrative leave Wednesday shortly after the Contra Costa Times raised questions about the Web site, Howtokillpeople.com. Investigators will “look into the content of the Web site and make a determination into whether any of it is a violation of military law and regulations,” said guard spokesman Lt. Col. Jon Siepmann.
