Tens of thousands mistakenly put on terrorist watch lists

WASHINGTON--Nearly 30,000 airline passengers discovered in the past year that they were mistakenly placed on federal "terrorist" watch lists, a transportation security official said Tuesday.

D'oh! Homerland Security fucks up AGAIN.

1. How much stupid is the American public willing to tolerate from these
jackoffs? Really, we are so far beyond the point where the excuse of 'a few bad apples, etc.' applies. It's ALL OF THEM.

4. People wants their security. They'll take it 'til they bleed if necessary,
and even refuse the offer of a bandage just so they can have it.

What's worthy of security? I'd aSk these same *-lovers after telling them succinctly and concicely all of the changed laws and offshoring/offpeopling methods and how * is openly supportive of those... then saying how the same actions are a giant detriment to our national security.

The public is getting what it deserves. And when they start crying, I hope I can tell them "I told you so, so shut the fuck up."

2. It makes you wonder about all of their secret "enemy combatants,"
doesn't it? How many of those people are innocent, too?

3. It's always a mistake when they get caught.
