New york is not 'the battlefield'. Shutting off cell phones just makes it harder to find folks in the event of an incident, the terrorists rarely use the high tech, a lesson we refuse to learn. Fertilizer and Washing Machine timers. If you think about it 9/11 wasn't particurally high tech either. They used tiny knives to hijack a really big object to throw at he really big towers. I think background checks for Koran sales would do more than would cutting off cell phone calls. Just makes NY less business freindly and backward.
You need to wake up and realize you are in a war. You do not get to continue life as normal in a war - no one does.
I sometimes wonder if some of the posters are trying to promote us not protecting ourselves.
Well - I don't buy it. You guys sound like the biggest crybabies I've ever seen.
Toughen up and quit your whining. Remember - your freedoms ARE BEING FOUGHT FOR AND YOU WILL HAVE TO JOIN IN THE BATTLE AND QUIT SITTING IN THE COACHING SEAT. YOU ALSO MIGHT TRY HELPING INSTEAD OF BEING OBSTACLES BECAUSE OF YOUR OWN PARANOIA.
You are the very same ones that are complaining because the borders are not protected, immigration moans and groans. But - if the war touches you in the least - you just try and make it a war for others - not you.
