Wow...I didn't know about these paper restrictions. What ****es me off,
being on the receiving end of anything bad, is that there is NO GUNBOATS
AT THE HARBOR ENTRANCE! We're never challenged in any way coming in from
sea on sailboats....even if we show no flag. Noone seems to care. You
could sail right up to the City Marina dock, right past the Coast Guard
Base Charleston, with a stolen Russian suitcase nuclear weapon and noone
would say anything to you unless you wanted to rent a slip or you set the
damned thing off. I think you, or anyone in any boat, ought to be
challenged at the SEAWARD end of the jetties! There's NOTHING THERE!
Noone calls you to even see if you speak English (or Spanish, now that
half our population are illegal Mexicans). I've tried to get noticed by
making calls in Farsi and Arabic on Channel 16 and got no response, at
all!....(c; You'd think at LEAST someone would say SOMETHING when you
called for Googoosh (a famous Iranian Pop singer that makes Iranian men's
blood boil) on CHANNEL 16 in FARSI! Nothing, nada....



Hot Damn, Man! You really mean you want them Gumment men to sit out
there on the end of the jetty with a shotgun......... In the hot sun,
the pouring rain, the (well what passes for in S.C.) freezing cold.

Lord God Man, didn't your pappy teach you nothing? The Gumment men got
to have the white shirt, the air conditioner, the comfy chair 'n the
big desk.

How you expect the Homeland Security to make things secure if they got
to sit around and guard tings. And, the budget so small that they
can't afford to sub-contract the work.
