9/11 changed the whole world in a very bad way.

Granted it was what the Terroist wanted?
It provoked the fear that allows stripping of rights!

The U.S. of A. was a Country based on certain freedoms.
With the creation of HomeLand Security?
I see a new SS with all implied powers.

I do not want a Government that insures safty at the cost of personnal freedoms!

I understand that I may die if I ride my Triumph without a lid and have an accident.
I also understand that some loon on a plane may be a bomber and take that risk willingly when I fly.

What I take severe offense to is this so called 'for your safety' crap!
The SS now watches ALL our E-mails and much more!!
I for one do not want to live in a World that settles for this kind of intrusion into simple life.

So to salute the New SS?

Planned Bombing
Car Bomb
New York
Jehad


I expect a visit from my SS friends soon!

As a clever Roman put it almost 2000 years ago, "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?" (Who watches the watchmen?)

I agree 100%. So much has been done in the name of "safety"...the power grabs and surveillance... The Patriot Act is a joke.

So how has the Patriot Act fared as a defense against terrorism? The act has been used in 1,618 drug cases and only 15 terrorism cases.
