We at this point are in a full blown fascist police state. Anyone who travels by plane lately must be seeing that the fourth amendment has been put on permanent hold as we "protect" ourselves from terrorists by allowing strip searches to get on a plane. Opt out of the cancer causing, naked, peep show booths and some dirty old man or woman gets to get more personal with you than your spouse. I don't about you but I don't need a freakin' cavity search to fly to Spokane to visit my grandmother. Until we stop this asinine behavior by always fighting the last war, we will never be safe. Profiling HAS to be implemented in security as demonstrated by EVERYBODY on earth saying it is the only way to really protect ourselves. El Al hasn't had a terrorist attack on a plane in forty years and they don't go through this nonsense. If you're an American citizen with no criminal record, you get to get right on. If your an American with a criminal past or a foreign traveler, expect some delays. If your name is Mohamed Al Shabazz, pack a lunch because your going to be there all day. This is not racist. If blond haired blue eyed Irish people were blowing themselves up, I'd be the first to demand tighter scrutiny for people who look like me and I'll be happy to get in that long, long line to fly. But they aren't, so let's top pretending that we're all the same. We're not and until we understand that, we will all be subject to searches that are not only unconstitutional and illegal but isn't making us any safer in the air. Stop pulling aside five year old and grandparents and focus on the real problems. Hint, it rhymes with Puslims. And if Muslims protests, tough. As I stated before, only one group is trying to kill innocent people aboard planes and it's not Jews, Christians or Hari Krishnas. End the new TSA program before someone gets hurt, which at this rate is inevitable.
As if illegal searches and seizures weren't bad enough, now comes word that the Justice department is looking into allowing the execution of any American citizen without a trial, arrest or reason. All that has to be done is the individual, on the President's order, can be labeled an "enemy of the state," and targeted for assassination. Never mind that this is illegal under current US law that prevents such actions, this will give whoever is President dictator like powers to target any person they don't like. What happens if the current President decides he doesn't like a peaceful group like Greenpeace and signs an order for them to be eliminated? Under this new law, such a thing is possible. This cannot be allowed to pass. If anybody declares war on you, you have a right to defend yourself and that includes against the government. I have always been one to preach peace and non-violence but if this comes to pass all best are off. With the new government sure to fail, we must be wary of any new laws such as this. We are all headed toward a cliff, expect for the richest of the rich. Laws don't apply to them any more. Remember that come 2012.
