Get this, most everyone bought the story.&quot;T.S.A.&quot; is as sensible as the rest of the media brain washing that most the general public swallows hook line a sinker, and i love it. I find it all stupid and entertaining equally as to why I voted for GW.Bush, our commander and stand up comedian.The US. Government wants change, obvious the change is that we all need federal martial law and I agree cause I find this entertaining too, I support it in full.I am guilty of being narrow minded here pushing the idea that everything the government dose is the hemi engine version what the UK has done, but we do it more grandiose in a delusional fashion of speaking and I love it. What a stage, what a drama and everyone can not do a thing to stop it, most everyone believes what they media tells them, I love it.Want change?Move out of American and Become a citizen in Another country that has no federal reserve banking system, nor ever will.--Good Luck...I Love This Zeitgeist...

isPermaLink="false">http://www.homelandstupidity.us/?p=1625#comment-62590</guid> <description>One does have to wonder why nationalizing the security system was going to solve a problem.   There seems to be an implied theory that the existing system missed something.   I am sorry, but everything used on 9/11 to hijack a plane was in fact allowed on the plane according to the rules.  So one would expect that it was highly probable that someone in security did find them and said &quot;yeap that is allowed&quot;.   I also will point out that the real problem was the policy of always doing exactly what the hijacker wanted.   These guys had box cutters!!!!  Can you see a plane load of people not being able to stop a guy with a box cutter.   You can bet that today it might not even be possible to hijack a plane with a machine gun.   People will today stop the guy/gal at all costs.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One does have to wonder why nationalizing the security system was going to solve a problem.
