The NSA is keeping us safe, I have proof (non-political)

This really is not a political post so I am putting it here so more can see.

So today my mom called me from Walmart and asked if there was anything else I needed for my dorm. I said a lamp would be nice, so she bought me a lamp, or so she thought.

She dropped it off a few hours ago and I opened the box eager to set it up and this is what I saw:




So what, may you ask, is actually inside the box?
A communist-made mass lighting device in the colors of the ISIS flag.

Abuse. Trending towards a Police state.

Solution: Defund and dissolve it.

I see you're having trouble telling the difference between TSA and NSA. Let me help you with that.

But rest assured the NSA has recorded and will likely keep in perpetuity the purchase of the lamp, including how, where it was sent and from who.
Just a little bit more data in the profile having to do with you and/or your mom to be kept in one of the NSA data centers in case they might need it.

It's not a matter of the tape. Don't you see "contains hidden microphone" written in microprint on the box?

Yes, a typo on my part. I knew what I was talking about, I promise!

But the NSA and the TSA are affiliate organizations.
