No matter what your citizenship, bureaucracy saves no lives nor makes a
country safer. It does however make it's citizens captives of their own
government.

When terrorists attack again, but use differant methods, new laws and
agencys will be created in the name of safety and prevention, however the
old laws and agencies will not be abolished. Bureaucracy breeds and thrives
upon itself.

When a government agency asks for funeral homes to become partners in
national Transportation Security, all in the name of safety and security,
what possibly can be next???

The TSA has created it's own minimum threshold to judge all other "threats"
against. The imagination of a career hungry bureaucrat is undoubtedly more
of a threat to the citizens of this country than the poor greaving mother
carrying the remains of a distant family member home for the last time.

I'm affraid there will be many more examples that meet this minimum
threshold and I cringe at how bizarre they may be.

There are many great things about this country. Our citizens have more
rights and freedoms than those of many other countries. Our fathers,
mothers, sons and daughters fight and die for us to keep those freedoms.
Unfortunately our ability to excercise those rights and freedoms is
sometimes inhibited by government agencies created out of fear or as a
desperate attempt of government to show "action".

I won't go so far to say that "We have nothing to fear but fear itself", but
look at what the fear of the unknown has created. There is a big differance
between being vigilant and being paranoid. The TSA operates on fear and
paranoia.

The devil's greatest trick was to convince the world that he didn't exist.
Bin Ladin's greatest act of terror did not happen in New York, Washington,
DC, or in Pennsilvainia. It's happening now. It's happening all across
America. It's happening to you and me and your mother and your father and
your childeren.

Now it's even happening at your local funeral home.

Jim
