Strange first post!
I like cheese. Do you like cheese?
PS, IBTZ
Welcome to FR.
Right now, its a lot of speculation.
But I have no doubt whatsoever that the security measures being taken (on the US' part) are higher than anyone might suspect.
Just tell the kids to "Watch out for the Islamic BOOGEYMAN!!!!"
welcome to Free Republic...
enjoy your stay
Canada couldn't protect a tangerine, let alone the Super Bowl.
I intended to include this link in my original post:

did i make it??????????
Y2K syndrome all over again.
i travel to canada alot on business.....the canadian side of the border crossing is a joke....anybody could just waltz on over......
AND...they prepared themselves by frequenting Miami strip clubs. The Windsor Ballet is much less skanky than South Beach. Let's encourage the Canoogians to arrest all Middle Eastern types attending the ballet!
Maybe, I'll head over and do a little sleuthing meownself.
Don't forget that Detroit is the most heavily Arab population in the US!
Damn good post. In light of our neighbors to the North and the factors you point out, Detroit was probably a very poor choice for superbowl 40.
the superbowl is a target....who'd a thunk it?
The Steelers can handle any situation that arises, including the Seahawks :)
Ooops..I posted this reply to the wrong person.
"We should remember that some of the 9/11 attackers entered the US from Canada in the preceding days."
How does this still keep getting posted? This common misconception was discredited long ago. None of the 9/11 attackers came to the US through Canada. And that's a FACT.
Interesting article.
Actually, on that part of the border, Canada is our neighbor to the south. They get a big kick out of that in Windsor. Along the riverfront, there's a marker in the spot that's due south of Detroit.
You can all relax....just go 2 miles in any direction into
the city of Detoliet from Ford Field...and it looks like
the city has been attacked and destroyed. This would confuse
any would be terrorists.
