Bin Ladin! this was not Bin Laden who brought all those restrictions ... it was ... well, your own govt. .. but: *ssssshhhhhh!!* Actually, it was half a dozen assh*les who decided to kill thousands of innocents by using airplanes as missiles. So those 19 dead terrorists passed the restrictive laws in this country? Doubtful. It was your elected government representatives who panicked, and used public mass hysteria to enact a lot of stupid restrictions on the American people in the name of strengthening security at the expense of untold billions of dollars flowing into the pockets of law enforcement agencies throughout the land. We've been had by our own government politicians, in a far worse way than the terrorists could have accomplished with a thousand fuel laden airliners. -- All professional philosophers tend to assume that common sense means the mental habit of the common man. Nothing could be further from the mark. The common man is chiefly to be distinguished by his plentiful _lack_ of common sense: he believes things on evidence that is too scanty, or that distorts the plain facts, or that is full of non sequiturs. Common sense really involves making full use of _all_ the demonstrable evidence--and of nothing _but_ the demonstrable evidence. -- Henry Louis Mencken |
