Ever read 1984?

Got my license renewed not so long ago, and noticed an ominous Dept. of Homeland Security Adendum asking for all sorts of information.

Went down to an airshow at a local airforce base (badass jets flying in tight formations and such), and they had on display a Homeland Security helicopter… The thing had a rifle with a scope built in to it, for picking off targets on the ground.

Super ominous. Sorry if this sounds paranoid, but I’d rather disband our Dept. of Homeland Security apparatus than this BS war on terror…

By the way, I’m fully aware of the threat of nuclear terrorism, but I don’t think it justifies secret bases where we torture people in the name of terrorism. Very f-ed up.

I was afraid you might say something like these pre-9-11 may never return, but I refuse to admit that we will capitulate and accept that our lives are more miserable because some people half way across the world decided to make it so.

What bugs me the most is that the solutions are within our capabilities, but we are not going at it the right way.

We are dealing with foreign and domestic terrorism. The pre-9-11 days may never return.

The day we’ll be going through airports like we used to, pre- 9-11 may be that day when all is good.
