145. Yes and they need to keep it up
My son got mugged in the subway in N.Y. about 15 months ago. 5 guys attacked him, with a knife at his throat, they cut his wallet out of his pants,luckily he did not try to stop them, he had his rent money in his wallet, he is a waiter and bartender.

When he called me, I was livid. He said there was no cameras around and no cops either. He called the police station and they told him to come into the station and report it. HOMELAND SECURITY, I say bullshit.

Thank God he wasn't hurt, just a slight cut on his throat from the knife, and thank God he acted calmly, and realized money isn't worth my life. But where the hell was this so called Security in the subways of the city that was attacked. As you can tell it still makes me angry, not just for what happened to my son, but if this could happen to him, what else could happen in the wee hours of the morning in the subways of N.Y.

So they up Security for a terrorist alert, like the terrorist are always going to tell us exactly when they will attack us next, or with this administration, would they just let it happen again for ratings. :argh:
