Wait OP...are you implying that you would rather have terrorists and criminals running free in our country? Are you daft? Are you worried that the DHS will stumble upon your illegal activities? If you don't do anything illegal, WTF is the problem here? I don't know about you, but I'd rather be safe then sorry.
Quoting: x CHAKA x There are more than enough laws to lock up terrorists and criminals, and no, as long as spinning records is not illegal I have little to fear.
I do find it disturbing that perfectly ordinairy normal people have to undress in front of sexist no-graders before they can enter a plane.
Law enforcers need to have a high moral, but we're dangerously moving to a situation where scumbags with a badge decide whether you walk or not, just because they can.
Where you can be a perfectly innocent and law obeyding citizen who has to watch his steps because he might say or do something that offends a TSA officer.
Or be reported by a neighbour who doesn't like you and have your home invaded by a task force in the name of 'Better Safe Than Sorry'.
The Netherlands were occupied by Nazi-Germany for five years - 1940-'45 - so I grew up with first-hand stories of what it was like in those days.
All the pieces - laws, 'Security' Services etc. - are being put in place that are needed to run a totalitarian (fascist/socialist) Police State. If that doesn't bother you...
