Yeah, there's that problem as well. Too bad the terrorists only have to be right once. Counterterrorism organizations, such as MI5 and the CIA, have to be right 100% of the time. Or maybe they don't have to be? What's wrong with simply allowing 1% of the terrorism attacks to succeed? Is it worth not being allowed to carry your soda bottles into the plane if it prevents that 1%? That's not the issue and you know it. People are crying wolf to make a point; that the right's paranoia is justified. Harris couldn't wait to present the Mackinac bridge silliness to me although a cursory look at the case tells you its much ado about nothing. I want to scream......use your damn heads.....but I don't think it would matter. You all have yourselves worked up into a vigilante group and you won't be happy until a few Muslims have been hung.
