Without those devices, they would still be looking for the suspects, who would have carried out more bombings by now.

Seemingly they should ban races, pressure cookers, sidewalks, and Islamic jihadists, as well.
(I know it is satire.)

Although meant as satire we all know Janet Napolitano is as dumb as a board and is probably writing up the initial directive as we speak.

They are actually debating a law in Texas today to penalize police if they try and stop someone from recording them.
Can you imagine the outcry from the MSM if police told them to stop filming something.
To: John Semmens
BS, they tried to deliver at least two different sets of suspects before they were forced to implicate the moslems.
They are pissed, because they were forced to hang it on the actual perps. Look for Janet to seek a ban on public recording DHS Stormtroopers and police officials from AJ Holder.

They’re kidding, right?
A thousand citizen cameras is better than one Homeland Security Division in public situations like the Boston Marathon.

OK...I see now the article is satire. But it has the potential of becoming true very, very soon under Mister Janet Napolitano.

To: John Semmens
Secretary Janet Napolitano says DHS is looking into the inherent threat posed by unauthorized use of these devices, especially in heavily trafficked public places. Law enforcement personnel at every level need to be on alert for people deploying these devices. I realize this is satire but we really shouldn't be giving the old girl (allegedly) any ideas!

To: citizen
I meant to post this line as well in the post above....I can really see them attempting to make some BS laws like that.
Napolitano professed to be especially concerned that government officers in the midst of carrying out the directives of higher authorities might be intimidated by fears that their actions are being secretly recorded.

Can you imagine the outcry from the MSM if police told them to stop filming something.Hey, there's no problem here! The MSM just submits all digital and/or film recordings to the Ministry of Information for review and editing and then - presto! they get approved....or squashed.
