Article Abstract

In 1997, the American media discovered (or more aptly, rediscovered) a strange society living within the United States and many other countries around the world. It is a society with values foreign to the average U.S. citizen, arcane rules, and a rigid hierarchy. It has an annual budget larger than that of most countries and is highly proficient at breaking things and injuring people.
