Don't let the screen door hit you, where the good lord split you.

Guess than means we won't be hearing from you for a while.

I knew someone would take offense

Consider that remark equivalent to: A democracy is the worst form of
government on the face of the Earth... except for every other one!

And besides, that statement was more a play on words directed at all the
Homeland Security nonsense, which is high on nuisance factor and low on
effectiveness. Do you claim otherwise?

How many terror attacks have there been on US soil in the past 2
years?

Richard
If you gauge the effectivness of "Homeland Security" on a measly two
years I fear you will be rudely brought to your senses eventually. It is
my humble opinion that the TSA is all show and no go.
I pray I am incorrect.
all the best

You are incorrect. You will never know about most of the successes.

Yes, in time there will be a successful attack on US soil, and you
will know about a failure. In the meantime, TSA will have been 99%
successful, and there will be people calling for it to be dismantled.

Do you really think the bad guys haven't tried in the last two years?

Sorry for the thread drift.

Well, to correct Richard only slightly, how about this:

_Most_ will never know about most of the successes.

But some will.

Agreed.

In the lobby of CIA at McLean, there's a wall covered with stars. One
for each agent that's been killed on the job. Most don't have names
next to them, and never will.

Homeland Security has also protected us from crocidile attacks and are
entirely responsible for the lack of bald eagle attacks.

What a specious argument.
