All we have now is the illusion of security. This country is not an iota
safer than it was prior to 9-11. We've simply done what the
Konservatives wanted all along...traded off some of our freedoms to help
engender their police state.

Reminds me of that 86-year-old retired Marine Corps Major General and former
governor who was held up for 45 minutes last year by airport security while
they tried to confiscate his Congressional Medal of Honor because of the pin
on the back. They took his keychain and CMoH commemorative nail file.

That old Marine was the probably the one guy in the airport most likely to
use his keychain and nail file to foil a terrorist attempt.
