If the feds were serious about preventing terrorist attacks, they'd secure the borders, and leave the rest of us alone.

I'm all for protecting our borders better

But if you think shutting the borders will stop threats and attacks .. you are fooling yourself

All this pissing and moaning......by the same people from thread to thread.....what the government isn't doing.....but this same crowd would bitch if we got hit again..

I don't, which is why I'm armed most of the time.

You don't think that people walking freely into the country, at will, doesn't pose an extreme security threat?

You see, that's why a lot of us can't take these security "alerts" seriously. If they were serious about security, border security would be priority 1.

That they allow the situation to continue largely unaddressed, and even hint at amnesty for those who are already here shows they are not serious about these security threats.

Meanwhile, they are concentrating on threats that are mostly played out. Although I do admit that the cargo plane angle is a possiblity. Still, that can be handled by explosive sniffers, geiger counters and dogs to make sure that no people smuggle themselves on via a large package.
