LOL! The good news is, you and the other hysteria mongers aren't going to succeed in your efforts, the truth has come out. So I won't wait...lousy try. But hey, that's all you've got.

the truth has come out.

Judging by the effectiveness of port security on the drug war we can probably expect only a few hundred tons of nuclear weapondry to make it through in any one year.

"More than 90,000 merchant and passenger ships dock at U.S. ports. These ships carry more than 9 million shipping containers and 400 million tons of cargo. Another 157,000 smaller vessels visit our many coastal towns. Amid this voluminous trade, drug traffickers conceal cocaine, heroin, marijuana, MDMA, and methamphetamine shipments for distribution in U.S. neighborhoods."*

Inspires confidence huh?

"It is estimated that total cocaine seizures now amount to approximately one quarter of the total amount of cocaine shipped to the United States..."**

25%!!!! is that the batting average you want us to bet our security on?
