194. Ad absurdum?
No of course not...but increased measures are needed apparently....and the point I made here that every increased measure (from chemical sniffers, to dog patrols, to new imaging technologies is met with the same stupid objection: WE ARE BECOMING A POLICE STATE! WE ARE ON OUR LAST STEP BEFORE THE STORM TROOPERS CRASH THROUGH THE DOORS!!" Such bitching and moaning is ridiculous...try security in Israeli airports, or Italian airports. Would you be more comfortable with no frisking, but soldiers (make them national guard so as not to violate posse comitatus) walking the airports and check points with M-16's and side arms?
