Usually if you are going to sue you pick something like a large corporation that has money... If EE is this Velton guy I feel sorry for him and if Velton is not EE then I also feel sorry for him.
Suing over talk on an internet sports discussion board where the information is all derived by a simple google? I saw the drug thing about a day before it was posted on this board from a simple google of the guy's name. Seems like some dawgs have hit a nerve. So how likely is it that EE has contacted this "guy" and relayed all this information (supposedly who is not a computer guy and has not seen it on the internet) and then he gets upset because his son's security clearance is threatened. Having lived in the intelligence world in the past, security clearances are not determined by what is on the internet and by the way, his "Big Brother" scenario about what is monitored and what falls right in line with the his delusions.

I think EE's credibility on the CUSA board has suffered and draws flack from most of the posters over there without input from here. I hope EE doesn't go postal!

I have had an active security clearance for almost a decade, and I can assure you that his clearance is not threatened by this. Smoke and mirrors by someone trying to create a controversy where none exists. Maybe trying to use it as a way to get sympathy from others on the site.
Moreover, if this stuff is all public record, then it was reveiwed when his clearance was granted.
But, part of me feels a little strange dragging his family into this. It's not their fault he's a douche bag.
You are spot on! Background checks include everything they can find on you from public records, interviews from people you provide and others they pick up on, and even your own input into the system. If his son did have an arrest for trafficking drugs and did not disclose it when he filled out the paperwork for his background check, he would not only not get the clearance but would be booted from the service.
This is a bunch of drivel and poorly disguised at that from EE.

Right! If he disclosed it on his paperwork, there have been no further incidents, and he got the clearance, then there is nothing to worry about. A lot of stuff can be overlooked if it is disclosed and was a one time incident. Like WW said, if you did not disclose it however, you are in big trouble. Believe me, background checks for security clearances are extremely thorough. Can they miss things? Of course. But normally, they do not.
I agree, this is a smoke screen.
GoGold, please answer the question which was asked of you twice. Do YOU know EE personally or not?
He is talking to this guy
No, we must be fair and let GoGold have his say. GoGold has claimed that "'you guys' have clearly went over the line" and that you don't know "Eager Eagle". Surely GoGold will be on here shortly to vouch for EE since he should know him from their Southern Miss fan affiliation.
There isn't a Tech fan on BB&B which cannot be either vouched for or expose through the Tech fans network. GoGold should be able to do the same via the USM fans network. Let GoGold set the record straight for his USM buddy "EagerEagle".
