Do you own a cell phone? By your logic, you are a potential terrorist. Yeah, go on ahead and restrict everything right on down to charcoal and lighter fluid for my smoked ham hocks, because I know how to use that stuff to make a friggin bomb.

Geez, keep on eroding civil liberties. You people sicken me. It's a friggin cell phone! There are BILLIONS of them in the world!

I can't believe you stalinist freaks consider yourselves conservative enough to be freepers!

Toby dear....Again. It's not ONE cell phone, honey.. It's a 100 cell phones purchased by One person. And, There were Many purchases like that all over the State, sweetheart. No one's civil rights are being violated here, darling. No one has been arrested for buying 100's of cell phones to sell on Ebay, sweety pie. Have a nice day!

Sir, you are speaking like a moron. No - I don't own a cell phone.

You seem to forget that we are at war. Things are different in war time.

If this were 1943 and a young male with a strong German accent went into the local hardware store and tried to buy a hundred sticks of dynamite (which certainly could be used for an innocent reason) - would you feel the same way? (Probably)

There is absolutely nothing wrong with someone purchasing 100 cell phones. However since the NYSlimes has let the terrorists know that their cell phones are being monitered, their logical move is to purchase prepaid phones. If a store owner were approached by a young middle eastern male wanting to purchase a huge number of prepaid cell phones then yes, I would hope that someone checks it out.

If he is buying them for resale or any other legitimate use -then fine. No harm done. But what if he isn't?

How on earth you get off calling me a "stalinist freak" for using common sense is beyond me.

You better take your meds and calm down.

See post # 67--you have illegals, pre-paid cell phones, batteries, GPS and a laptop--do you think this just might bring a bit of suspicion to the the minds of THINKING people?

"This is America. Life, liberty and the pursuit of whatever the heck you want without government interference. "


Apparently you don't understand the meaning of the word 'conservative'.
