A complete set of my prints have been on file with the local, state, and
fedral government for decades. And they've never been used for anything.
I have nothing to hide, and as long as that remains the case, that info
just sits there, full of no sound or fury, signifying nothing. You are
truly paranoid. Do you honestly believe that your prints and retinal
scans will be lying one someone's desktop and pulled up now and then and
examined? "Hmm, John, look here at this Mooron fellow. These prints looks
awfully suspicious. Maybe we'd better do some further investigating of
this guy. I think he may be al Qaeda . . ." In fact any prints taken at
the US/Canadian border will end up in an archive, lost and buried. Most
won't even get put on the fingerprint database servers at the FBI, there
will simply be too many of them.

Wow..... you must be the poster boy for "Resistance is Futile... you will
be Assimilated". The obedient American Citizen. I commend you for your
abject acquiessence. Selection of "Hiding within the Masses" is a viable
method. Compliance to negate red flagging due to volume isn't the strategy I
would employ... but you seem comfortable with it.

Not in the least. I couldn't care less. This entire debate has been a
mildly amusing entertainment, nothing more, nothing less. To believe
otherwise would be arrogant of you--and you certainly don't want to be
viewed as arrogant, now do you? Fact is, Mooron, only you and Ozzy can
debate with something resembling intelligence and cogent arguments. This
is recreation only. Sorry if I've offended you buy informing you that I
really don't give a rat's posterior if you choose to stand on the border
and **** on our country.

I'm not offended.... why should I be? As you pointed out... it's a debate.
I've never considered "Arrogance" as a bad thing. You do however give a
"rat's ass"... that is obvious. My position brings into question your eager
compliance to your government's demands. You have in effect convinced
yourself that a total invasion of your privacy is the only option to keep
the dogs at bay. The problem is that what you view as ****ing on your
country ... is in effect my ability to enact my freedom of choice...
something your country fought hard and long to secure... only to have it
systematically removed, little by little, without question form you at all.
This is the point I don't understand.


That would actually suffice as a reasonable definition of indignation.

You'd best look up the definition of indignation..... then research "non
compliance".... it might indicate where you have gone so wrong and why I am
so right.

Good for you, Mooron. Everyone has a right to righteous indignation.
Even you.

You'll need better bait than that Max...... :-P


Since most countries eventually and ultimately emulate the security
procedures instituted in the US, you may discover fewer and fewer
countries where such identity records aren't accumulated. You may just
achieve that isolationist status yet.

OMG.... what a wonderful impression of an "Ugly American"!!! Let's see what
could I add.... Oh Yeah!.... the only way the USA undertakes geography is
by invasion. I bet hardly anyone in the USA knew where either Vietnam or
Iraq was until you launched a military action in those regions...
congrats.... in another hundred years and 500 thousand American lives...
you'll be at the Grade 4 level of geographic knowledge exibited by most
other nations!

I hear Damascus is lovely this time of year. g

I would be welcomed in Damascus with either a Belgian or Canadian Flag....
what kind of reception would you expect there? Oh Wait... your comment
explains that already.
