Finally Today

Security hysteria?

Last year, 2 students from Florida made headlines as "Terrorist bombers" when they were stopped in SC with "Bombs" in their trunk. They claimed they were fireworks. They are still in jail today. The F.B.I. took a year to confirm their claim. The judge is trying to determine if the 2 should be relaeased on bail for carrying "Low grade fireworks" according to the F.B.I. Try to find the story in the newspapers, it's been buryed as opposed to the headlines splashed on the front pages. How stupidly foolish do those who wanted to hang the 2 last year feel today? Just because your government tell's you something, rarely makes it a fact. Like the "Slam dunk" of wmd's, believe very little of what you are told by folks who are making a killing on "National security".

1. I think this country's government is trying to control the masses with fear mongering. Basically, if it involves "terrorism", then the country will look to you for support and live in fear of the world. At least, that's what politicians think!
2. Putting fear into the masses allows the governments to erode civil liberties in the name of safeguarding our freedom. Ironic or what?!!!
3. Did you hear the reasons to invade Iraq? More of the same push-fear to stay in power politics.
