And this is an official statement by the DHS.

What we all need to realized, that the Dem and MSM statements referring to "only 5% are inspected" strongly imply or even say, that we aren't doing anything at all about the 95%, that 95% of the containers come into the US, in a way that we are totally ignorant about them.

The DHS press release goes into the specific actions taken, demonstrating that ALL containers are screened, look at the "Layered Defense" section. Then the high risk ones get further screening and inspection and all cargo entering the US is screened for radiation.

There is a big difference in what is actually being done, quite a lot and the impression the Dems are trying to create, that we are only randomly inspecting 5%.

There is a big difference.

Yes, this is an official DHS statement. I was attempting to point out to SwordofTruth that the 5% thing is a media soundbite. While this DHS statement may be timed to current events -DPW-, it does have enough information about procedures to help sane folks form an opinion. The black helo crowd will always have another conspiracy.....
