Ugh what a constant sad reminder of America becoming cowards & letting a new police state loser-dom emerge after September 11th. A sad sorry institution which will always only ever demand more, will further perpetrate demands against the individual, and never ever face real meaningful pushback against their infinite hunger to intrude.

Shitty shitty embarrassing part of American history, like the whole sad "homeland security" complex which has done nothing, is nothing, protects nothing, but ever encroaches.




This is why voters should not support any law maker that makes or votes for feel good legislation following any tragedy.


Voting is meaningless if the system is only able to produce lawmakers who do the bidding of the ultra rich (and the corporations they own).

There can be no revolution against this without a peaceful march of 1M's or 10M's.
